You are invited to participate in MAPS 2020 (Mount Allison Programming Showdown 2020) on Saturday March 28th 16:00 UTC. MAPS is an open, online, ICPC-style programming competition hosted on Kattis. The following site contains all of the relevant information about the contest: https://mapscontest.com/.

It is a 5 hour competition with 11-12 problems. The MAPS problem set has been put together so that it will (hopefully) both challenge reasonably strong teams and be accessible to newer competitors. The difficulty range of the problem set is expected to be similar to that of the North American Qualifier, if you are familiar with that contest. We hope that you will participate! Registration is available at https://maps20.kattis.com/.

EDIT: Feel free to discuss the problems here after the contest is over!

UPDATE: The problems are now available here on open Kattis https://open.kattis.com/problem-sources/Mount%20Allison%20Programming%20Showdown%20%28MAPS%202020%29
