We only finished one at about 4 and a half hours into the 5 hour competition. The problem I worked on involved lots of recursive calls. I was getting the correct answer, but way too slow. I was in process of converting it to using some <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dynamic_programming" rel="nofollow">dynamic programming</a> after I realized that it was required for the problem to complete in a reasonable amount of time (2 minutes is the competition limit). I was close, but had one small bug. The other two teams my University sent weren't able to get any problems. Unfortunately, I think that more than half of the teams at the competition didn't even get one problem. We worked on three problems.

If you split up the problems, whose problem was the one which got completed? Wish the website had a listing of the final standings. It's still showing the 2004 results.
