I feel that virtual participation at codeforces really helps a lot. I was lucky to get F solved since I have met this problem https://codeforces.com/contest/587/problem/D, which is related to 2-sat, and by introducing some auxiliary nodes, the number of edges could be reduced from O(m^2) to O(m). I don't think I could solve F without this inspiration.

My submission for problem D that got AC during contest is actually wrong. I submitted just now to see if any "after contest" test cases have been added. None have been added and it still gets AC.

I suggest there should be a hacking mechanism through which we can add such cases.

Here is the test case which my submission fails. Correct answer should be 22, mine prints 26.
