I like the initiative, but...

Both C++ and Java are acceptable for the class. While our class will primarily use Java, instructors are fully able to assist C++ users as well.

That's a red flag if I ever saw one. IOI for instance only allows C++.

    idk if this is just me, but Java tends to be harder to get accepted due to its slow runtime, which often leads to TLE on problems where C++ works, started off with Java and did really bad for a while, but switching to C++ saw me a considerable success(compared to before)

    You have a point, instructor's generally use whichever language they are most comfortable with, which tends to be C++ recently.

    Website is a bit old, I'll have it updated soon. Thanks for lmk!

X-Camp orz!!! Ench_Lolz & maxrgby & AlwaysAcing and other X-Camp students definitely stand with me on this. This class does sound interesting though if I was still in Silver.
