24-hour Programming Contest 24
bigboyofeq writes "The Budapest University of Technology and Economics is hosting the 3rd 24-hour programming contest. For the first time, it's open for teams from all over the world. The winner team gets 4000 Euros, so it's worth a look. When I took a look at the pictures of the previous years, I got really excited. They are available here (comments are in Hungarian)."

Here are some of the comments translated:
1. "Does anyone know her number?"
2. #...
3. "We tried calling Saturday night, but she spent an hour and half talking on the phone in front of the door."
4. "It would be worth entering the contest just for this lady..."
5. "... but of course, I'll enter the next time."
YES! I HAVE FINALLY USED MY HUNGARIAN SKILLZ TO CONTRIBUTE TO SLASHDOT! (let me cherish this moment because I'm sure it'll never happen again)

I don't know about you, I'm not planning on knocking up who ever this [sch.bme.hu] is using Perl... and its probably not going to take me 20 minutes, either!

It was our best intention to create a problem not solvable in 24 hour. If everyone can solve it, it is more than difficult to pick the best teams.
This year's task (again) will be completly different from last year's problem set, so be prepared
