In todays contest tourist solved ABC in 5 minutes. He solved C in 3 minutes.
How is that even possible?
C is not a so simple problem, it has a big complicated statement, and it takes some time to observe the task and simplify the computation to be able to do it in O(n) / O(nlogn).
Even top LGM's and reds took 8-10 minutes.
This is completely unbelievable, how can a human possibly possess so much speed?
I cannot imagine someone looking at C, reading and understanding the statement, and thinking of an approach, and then implementing it, all under fucking 3 minutes. HOW IS THIS POSSIBLE !!!!!!!!
what's your point here? he cheated?
No. He has become a god. He has transcended the level of humanity. I just can't wrap my head around someone being able to do this.
C isn't difficult. I personally have seen the idea in more problems than I can count. With a decent typing speed, and being able to recall quickly anyone can do that.
what the fuck are you saying? its almost impossible to solve A, B and C within 5 minutes, especially with such long problem statement and implementation on C
swag like ohio
Cause he is the "tourist", so simple.
Tourist is a superior being from another universe
Bro just find someone who's level or abilities is nearest to yours and compete with you can't catch up with tourist cus the more you get smarter the more he's also getting smarter since he's also practicing everyday and most probably more efficient then you. He's even a guest in this contest so chill man and unmark the show unofficial in the standings page. ⟵(o_O)
Probably he isn't a human. Lets give him a CAPTCHA.
The moment you realize he is so advanced version of ai that can also solve captcha
Thats why his username is tourist because he is literally a 'tourist' in planet earth.
Now everything make sense
This is what happens when you see enough and spent efforts day and night for years. tourist probably goes like "ok here we go again..." after reading problems like C
Must be banned...

tourist you has exposed your time zone
Do you think he is normal human being?? He is tourist, giving tour in this planet.
By the way, he has it in a more transparent way. While most of us, I guess, were using lower_bound and prefix_sum. We were asking a Question: "for how long $$$a_i$$$ will remain?". "What $$$b_i$$$ will accumulate?" was his approach, as it looks to me from the submission.
It's highly probable that he has previously solved a problem with a very similar prompt, which means that he only needs to make minor modifications to his prior solution to adapt it to this problem. Since he already has a pre-existing approach, it shouldn't take more than 30 seconds of contemplation, especially for someone as experienced as tourist. Afterward, all he needs to do is type the solution, and with a reasonable typing speed, he can do it quite rapidly. Thus, completing the task in 3 minutes is undoubtedly feasible for someone in the LGM region.
For reference, I got the key idea in less than 1 minute, but I claim I would have spent at least 10 minutes thinking about the details and implementing.
Maybe he used Chat GPT?) Then it is a great union
Don't you know how fast ChatGPT answers? And now ChatGPT has trouble reading the questions.
I think GPT is not specialized in problem solving, GPT can't even solve easy problems like div2 A or B.
I think ChatGPT is using tourist
maybe he already knew the problems, just came to submit them.
++ :)
Obviously, tourist first solves the contest and then starts reading the problems.
He is not a common tourist. He is tourist!
This Peoples are G.O.A.T tourist Benq jinagly Um_nilk
I saw him once solving problem even without looking and statement, he just read the name of the problem and started to implement solution!
Problem C for tourist looks like :cout<<"hello world";
If you want to see something crazy, look him up on youtube :D
Maybe he is ChatGPT's database.
Only he can answer that for you!
style of tourist
C was a easy problem, although problem statement was pretty confusing to understand.
he sucks
let's divide this problem and conquer it. 30 seconds on statement comprehension. 30 seconds on construct functional algorithm. 45 seconds on implementation. 15 seconds on waiting the system before him.
:(
He got a Silver Medal in IOI 2006 when he was grade 6, and then get Gold Medal 6 years in a row, until he graduated high school. So calling him "doing CP since 2010" and "came across many problems" is just a severe understatement
I don't know, but I feel like this way -> when I was like newbie, I always thought how people solve A within just 5 minute, Now in normal contest I can solve A in 5 minutes. This is because of practice. And for Tourist, I believe he has solved so many problems in his life that for most of the problem, he got a pattern so early and he implement it like he has solved it earlier.

Petitions for tourist to upload his screencast and solutions. PS: I enjoy watching screencasts of orz coders.
I dont want him to explain anything in his screencast, just solve as if you are usually participating and don't waste any time in explaining.
Just want to see him obliterating problems in minutes.
He is just so strong
Tourist wins 7 time google codejam 2 time icpc highest rated competitive progmmer on almost every website and much more google codejam problem way more difficult if we wins google codejam 7 time straight also get 7 golden medals in ioi check Wikipedia tourist achievement is unbeatable so solving problems upto 2000 levels on codeforces is like printing hello world by tourist ! So he is best of the best nothing new
Because he can
He has practised for more than 10 years.
that's what she said
