Hi Everyone,

The selection list for both the regionals (Amrita and Kanpur-Mathura) is out now. You can find the selected teams and their sites here and here. Thus, it would be fun to know more about the teams participating in the competition.

Please feel free to comment the regionals you have qualified for, the location you will be visiting and your teammates.

Also, it would be fun if you could mention something interesting about your team.

For eg. (some prompts)
- Something interesting about a teammate or your past performance OR
- What will you do if you AK the problemset in 3 hours OR
- Preferences in problemset (eg. all geometry problems).

Looking forward to meet many people in the community!

I was going to add some memes about our team and performance, ended up making some more. Thought it might be good to add them here. Feel free to check them out.

Regionalist? Me???
Aren't you a master?
Who needs practice for ICPC?
Getting to regionals is easy?
The end is near?
Some world huh!
But why?

This blog serves as a perfect proof for ratism on Codeforces. I posted same blog but got downvotes. Link to my blog : https://codeforces.com/blog/entry/114226

This comment is the proof of sexism : https://codeforces.com/blog/entry/114226?#comment-1015205

    Unfortunately I didn’t see your blog. One suggestion is that, when you post a blog, at the very beginning try to send it to your friends for it to gain traction.

Team : "Matrix" from Inderprastha Engineering College Ghaziabad.

Members : 21o7, rohitojha_22, iamujj15

Regionals :

Amritapuri, distinct rank around 155, only 130 slots (Not Qualified)

Mathura, Distinct rank 154, only 150 slots (Not Qualified so far, in waitlist no. 4)

A bit of regret :

Mathura, we solved 2 problems, and our code for the 3rd problem (dp) was correct, but was giving TLE because we were using vector<vector> dp, instead of int dp[][] (global), we thought it might be something else, and left this dp thought, and struggled a lot, but were not able to get an AC for it. Later, after the contest, we literally just replaced vector to int, and it freakin worked, we were really so sad.

Amritapuri, we got a penalty due to a silly/dumb mistake, in the first problem itself, we submitted it directly without run code, and we had this, "Case 1 : YES" format in our code (as it was there in one problem of Mathura Contest as well), instead of simple "YES", which costed us 20 min. and we could've easily gotten a rank around 365 instead of 424 had we not committed that mistake.
