any SPOJ users?

-----------------------------------

Hey guys,

I'm going to hope this thread is in the right forum.  Anyone here do the SPOJ's?  I know Hanson's on there but he's not on this forum.  I forgot my account/password a while ago, so my new ID is dr3w.  I find the difficulty of them to be rather high, and some of the questions are translated from other languages to English, making them a little odd to understand.

Sure, I have almost as many problems solved as Hanson, although he solves much harder problems than I (accounting for the discrepancy in score).

One of the nice things about SPOJ is that you can look at the solved problems lists of other users. So pick a user such that you know you're better than him (her), and solve all the problems on their solved problem list. (I did this A LOT in my earlier days in SPOJ.)

Also, you can sort the problem list by number of users who have solved it.

If you need help, post on the SPOJ forum: http://spoj.pl/forum .
