USACO-like competitions

T

The idea is the same as USACO contests. The contest will be between a period of days (Example 3), and when you "agree to participate" you have N amount of hours to solve the M problems (The problems can be ACM-like as well, that's not a problem).

Apart from that, the admins could evaluate the new problems that are submitted (If the problems are new, because if not some will have advantage), and can make a competition like this when they reach K problems (It is a competition to "introduce" the new problems).

What do you think?

I think the main reason why USACO is making competition in this way is to allow to everyone to participate in any part of day.

Yeah, I agree with you, but this can be used to "show" new problems/problemsets :)
