Kevin114514 is very orz and won ioi! After my own country (US) the main person I wanted to win was Qiwen or "kevin". After the first day, things were looking somewhat grim but nevertheless he somehow made the nearly 70pt comeback to win it all. Was this unexpected? Eh, I feel like of all the people to win ioi, I would've bet money on him given he has nearly 500 peak elo on all the other contestants but I digress. Interesting things I observed, there was some dude from vietnam, Phuc, who was one of four people to solve p1 on day one despite only getting 204 place overall which show crazy levels of deep knowledge into a specific question type. Also cool to see two americans getting t20 (likely gold) and just being absolute orzists. ANother thing that was fascinating was China "only" (if you can even say that) had 3 golds as opposed to 4 last year. Fun ioi! (not that I was there lol).
