A double prix week

Before I cover the last week, I need to mention the 4th Universal Cup Stage 5: Nanjing, which happened the week before and which I forgot to cover (problems, results, top 5 on the left, analysis in Chinese). Even having only 2 out of 3 teammates did not stop team USA1 from winning by a whole problem. Congratulations!

The Universal Cup can't stick to the plan of having rounds only every other week, so Stage 6: Shenyang took place last week (problems, results, top 5 on the left, analysis in Chinese). The first two places look suspiciously similar to the previous round, but for the veteran teams Polish Mafia and Almost Retired Dandelion who also solved everything this was the best result of the season. Well done!

Codeforces Round 1066 wrapped up the week (problems, results, top 5 on the left, analysis). Some of the Universal Cup stars were also strong this time, but they were complemented in the top 5 by jiangbowen and PEIMUDA who were not at the very top in the team rounds. Congratulations on the nice individual performance!

Thanks for reading, and check back next week for a more meaningful summary!
