Sweet. I made another contest on codejam-devel, so people can try it out there. Of course we (Google) can't offer any guarantee that this will work properly, and would recommend against following any links to jorgestealsyourpassword.com. :-P

If there is, though, we're bound by it, so you might want to check for yourself.
