Hello, Codeforces.
Today I arrived in Baku for the ICPC World Finals. The very first participant I met asked me if we would be doing push-ups.
Yes! This year I decided to repeat the fun event and I invite you to join the push-up challenge. It will take place on September 3rd at 18:00. The best performer will receive a prize from Codeforces! And everyone in the top 25 will get a souvenir.
If you're not ready to do push-ups, come anyway to cheer for your friends and have fun!
We'll repeat last year's format: push-ups in rounds of 25. Gradually, people will start dropping out. Whoever does the most total push-ups will be the winner! In other words, they'll hold the title of Push-up World Champion according to the ICPC World Finals version :-)
There will definitely be a livestream on my Instagram https://www.instagram.com/mikemirzayanov/. Join us online to cheer!
See you there!
On September 3rd at 18:00
UPD 1: The complete alumni schedule can be found at https://worldfinals.icpc.global/alumni.html.

Wait it's true.
