Hello,
The time has come — Code Jam Round 1 begins in under 36 hours! Visit the schedule page <https://codingcompetitions.withgoogle.com/codejam/schedule> to see rounds in your browser's local time zone and to add events to your calendar. * All posting on this group will be paused during all Code Jam online rounds.* *Things to know:* - Round 1 is divided into three sub-rounds (1A, 1B and 1C). Each lasts for two hours and thirty minutes. You may compete in as many of the sub-rounds as you want, but if you place in the top 1500 in any sub-round, you'll qualify for Round 2 and won't be eligible to compete in any later sub-rounds - Round results will not be immediately finalized when the round is over. You'll be notified of your advancement status to Round 2 at least one day before that round in the "Alerts" section of the competition website and by email. - Unlike in the Qualification Round, *collaboration is strictly prohibited in Round 1 and all future rounds of Code Jam 2020*. Section 7 of the Code Jam Terms <https://codingcompetitions.withgoogle.com/codejam/rulesandterms> prohibits sharing or using from others any information about a problem before the end of the round. Such actions that violate those Terms & Conditions will result in your disqualification. Moreover, please note that if you are utilizing a web integrated development environment (IDE), be sure to not publish your code or otherwise allow it to be publicly visible during the contest, or you could be subject to disqualification. If you have any questions, start by reviewing the FAQs <https://codingcompetitions.withgoogle.com/codejam/faq> and Rules and Terms <https://codingcompetitions.withgoogle.com/codejam/rulesandterms>. If you have questions during the round, use the "Ask a Question" feature in the competition interface.
