And the contest was... was... I still don't know!

There were technical problems (a fair number of them) during the contest, so the closing ceremony is only at 12. And since the scoreboard was one of the casualties, we still don't know how we did. But talking to one or two other teams, it sounds like we did reasonably well. Details to follow.

Also, I have now been awake well over 24 hours, with more to come. If you feel yourself going a bit squiggly and turning into a 6-foot chicken, do not be alarmed - I am merely hallucinating.

Hungry in Hungary

I'm sitting in Budapest, in preparation for a 24-hour programming contest. And lunch on the plane was a small ham sandwich, so I'm feeling peckish. Um, I don't really have much to add to that for the moment - more news once we've actually done the contest and done some touristy stuff. Tonight we're just going to crash and get a good night's sleep.
