    General NewsI'd quite like to pretend the ACM programming competition didn't happen this year. But it did. We (One and a Half Engineers) came 6th in Auckland. I mean maybe that isn't bad, we solved 5 problems and the regional champions solved 7, but it's not what we've come to expect, and certainly not what we hoped for. We did better last year as first year underdogs (well, Chris wasn't first year). Life goes on I suppose, we still have a couple of years to win.

    Update: Turns out there was some issue with problem C, which is pretty irritating for us - especially Iain, since it was his baby and we spent some time desperately searching for problems with it when we kept getting wrong answer back. Time that will never be refunded, even though we got it after rejudging. Anyway, that puts us up to 6 problems, 3rd in Auckland and 11th in the South Pacific. I feel much better about that.
