Hi everyone!

The fifth round of COCI will be held tomorrow, March 16th at 17:00 UTC. Note the unusual time of the competition. You can access the judging system here. If you are not familiar with COCI contest format, we encourage you to read the announcement.

The round was prepared by ToniB, fbabic, psruk, mlicul, itiamhr and me.

Feel free to discuss the problems in the comment section after the contest ends.

Hope to see you and good luck!

Sadly the timing coincides with Codeforces round :(

    The time in the link is not fixed yet, it will be fixed soon. But the contest has been moved so it is after the Codeforces round 934. Edit: it's fixed now, sorry for the delay

      I see. Thanks for the clarification!

        I think that the new time is too late, plus after Codeforces round many won't write COCI seriously. I think it is better if COCI is on at the usual time.

          I feel like it's more like they have a responsibility to not intentionally have their contest at the same time as any others.

              The CF contest was scheduled before COCI.

              EDIT: Never mind, I'm stupid. The announcement was posted later, but it was scheduled before that.

          I agree. But I think if we put COCI at the same time as Codeforces round most people would choose Codeforces. It is unfortunate that it overlaps, but COCI was scheduled at the start of the school year and we cannot change the date. :(

            Would it be possible to have like a 24 hour window to participate? A lot of other OIs follow this these days.

              Unfortunately, because of the contest format, that is not possible.
