Hey,



I was just wondering if anybody here competes on TopCoder.com?



It's a site that has programing contests (with cash prizes) and i notice that a good deal of people on there are using OS X, so I thought I'd see if anybody here was doing them?



It requires OS X because the Arena Applet/Application requires Java 1.3. You can code in Java, C++ or C#...



I'm one of those geeky programer types, so I've been having fun with it. My profile is here if anybody is interested, but it's not too good:

Anyway, I just though I'd mention it in case anybody wants to check it out.

    That's cool. I came in 4th last night, but it was my highest finish so far, and it was my 4th competition.



    Right now I'm sitting in 3rd for tonight's match and the system tests are currently running. If my code passes the tests, I get some money! If some of the people above me fail the tests, I could finish even higher! Of course, if my code doens't pass the sys tests, I could end up even lower...
