What is this? Some kind of a cipher? A hint for the upcoming round? Is Mike trying to communicate something to us?

    Is this message the start of a horror film?

Mike is held hostage. The coordinators kidnapped him since he is (almost) always thanked for awesome Codeforces and Polygon platforms in contest announcements, yet the coordinators are not always thanked. H stands for help!!. We need to do something quickly. The coordinators are threatening to make the next 25 rounds unrated if we don't give them some recognition. I am almost certain that they locked him in the ITMO server room, where the only thing that he has available is the server, from where he sent this message. How should we help him?

PS I would like to thank MikeMirzayanov for the awesome Codeforces and Polygon platforms.

    Yeah, it was even confirmed. Sad... It was a decent meme.

      Or maybe he accidentally sent "H," and created a new feature to cover up for it.
