Petr Mitrichev Contest 10 - this Saturday!

I will be hosting Petr Mitrichev Contest 10 this Saturday (the day after tomorrow) between 15:30 and 20:30 Moscow time (other timezones: http://timeanddate.com/worldclock/fixedtime.html?msg=Petr+Mitrichev+Contest+10&iso=20121027T1530&p1=166&ah=5).

The contest will be held at http://codeforces.com/gyms. In order to take part, you need to have an account on codeforces.com. Both teams and individual participants can join. The contest itself will be at http://codeforces.com/gym/100110, but this link will be accessible only after the start of the contest.

There will be 10 problems of varying difficulty (most are quite difficult) for 5 hours. Your solution needs to be correct on all test cases to be accepted (the standard ACM ICPC rules). People will be ranked by the number of solved problems, and by total penalty time in case they're tied on solved problems, so don't be late! :) Note that in each problem you need to read the input from a file and write the output to another file - so don't read from stdin and don't write to stdout!

Feel free to ask any questions that you might have, and also please tell if there are any issues with the contest system - it's the first time I'm using codeforces.com/gyms.
