I think that many people in Israel, and indeed many people around the  
world do indeed have a prior commitment EVERY Saturday. Several 1000  
years prior in fact...

Sound to me like scheduling a Code Jam is harder than any of the
problems within the Code Jam :)

I'll compete in Code Jam 2010 whenever you hold it.

Re: [gcj] 2010 -- What do you think?

2009-12-19 Thread Shachar Raindel
Hi,

It would be nice if the rounds will not happen while it is Saturday day time
in Israel. This is since some of the Israeli participants are religious
Jews, and can't code during saturday. For accurate times in which Saturday
ends in Israel, check www.hebcal.com. In the calendar it shows an hour on
Friday, which is when saturday starts by jewish laws, and an hour on
saturday, which is when it ends. cben, whom I know in person, has been
handicapped when competing over the past 2 years, since rounds 2 and 3
started during saturday, preventing him from starting in time with all the
other contesters. Few hours postponement of rounds 1B, 2 and 3 will probably
sort out this issue, while not hurting the ability of other contesters to
compete.

Thanks,
--Shachar

I think you miss one schedule in between Round 3 and Onsite FINALS.

That is... The Onsite REGIONALS ;))
