Too bad this was removed... I have already been thinking about the fastest ways to read files, unrolling loops, bit tricks and other nasty (but kind of fun) optimizations.
Given three weeks, I think many people will be able to solve all the problems if they really want to. So the real fight are going to be the challenge problems.

) there may be a challenge problem with a judge that gives points for some funny things, like shortest runtime, shortest source code, weirdest source code (according to some criterion), etc. I think I will add a few problems of this sort to SPOJ, and if they catch on, they may appear in the league.
