[Contests] Re: NWERC 2024 selections

Dear all, NWERC (https://2024.nwerc.eu/) is our biggest competitive programming event of the year. It is hosted yearly and includes teams from all around Germany, Benelux, UK, Scandinavia, and more. This year it is hosted at the end of November in Delft, the Netherlands. Normally, we send three teams to the competition. However, as Delft University is hosting this event for a third year in a row, they could not accomodate the full-scale competition. Therefore, this year we will be able to send either one or two teams. To decide who is going to Delft, we will organize a selection contest on Saturday, October 26th in the auditorium 407 of E1.1. I encourage everybody to come and try your luck! Even if you don't feel like you are yet strong enough, it is always a good idea to train, see how well you do compared to the others, and prepare for what to expect next year when you will beat all other participants :) You can check whether you are eligible or not using this diagram (https://drive.google.com/file/d/1cFXF7ZKNP72ZZrq3yVIrREdk-snse1aX/view). In case of doubt, contact me. Also, note that in many situations exceptions can be made, so also contact me if you are unsure about your situation. P.S. If you know any potentially interested people who have just started studying at our university or have already been here for some time but are not subscribed to either our mailing list or the NWERC telegram group, please let them know about this (and invite them to the chat).
