Oh damn, that's tomorrow.

In one day, I find out who surpassed my score of 72 >_>

Wait, they mean EDT (UTC-4:00), right? Because if it's EST (UTC-5:00) it means that we actually get it at around 1 PM >_>

Problem 5 - I coded the wrong thing, but the actual solutions was close enough to what I had that it matched 80% of the time.

Anyway, it got pushed to tomorrow at 5...

Hmm...is the cutoff >66 ? Since I believe I know of people who got 66 and didn't make it.

Really? My friend made it with 66. It might be because he's second after me in western BC and they can't not let a regional winner in though.

Didn't think I would, so I'm especially happy I made it with 65. So excited!!! Smile

(Hope it's not a fluke...)

The cutoff was 63. And I thought it would be really high...

Well, then again, 63 is pretty high.

Wasn't expecting that nobody got above 72, though >_>

Aw, really? I had a 63 and I didn't make it. Luck of the draw I suppose Very Happy

Hmm, maybe they don't determine it by score alone?

Because I got it from the score rankings on the final sheet of the results page - a person who scored 62 got 21st place, so I'd assume that there were 20 people who scored 63 and above.

Maybe there was a regional winner who didn't score in the top twenty? Seems unlikely, but I'm not sure where else the different could come from. Oh well, no complaints here Very Happy
