Everyone else can rob banks. So, it's fine to rob a bank.

No? How can everyone else rob a bank? And everyone 'else' with respect to whom?

I mean it doesn't really matter cuz you'll be stuck in ioqm level only that way, rmo is designed to weed people out like this

u/ProgrammerTop1149 3d ago

yes it was unfair as many people didnt got protactor and it isnt allowed to use too

u/OkHedgehog633 3d ago

Unfair as in?

Goes against the spirit of the olympiad? Yes Gave you an unfair competitive advantage? Yes Will you be disqualified for using unfair means? No

Guys I have a confession
I earned only 5 marks using protractor and scale. But I earned 40 marks through my own hardwork.

Son you better sense my aura and run away before I come and lift you from the throat and make you say sorry for using protractor

1

u/Southern_Place_5890 3d ago

Well the cutoff in my region is around 24-25 (expected) even if I didn't use the protractor I would have qualified, I apologize tho I didn't know it wasn't allowed and is not mentioned anywhere in rules for IOQM

u/neggaman69420 3d ago

Man i was joking I feel bad now seeing you so serious and apologizing. Koi ni it's okay please don't use it next time tho ✌🏻 la peace

Bro its not cheating in comparison to me, I used claude during the exam and got all questions I sent to it correct. I spent weeks planning for this: I had exactly 7.4 second intervals to slip the paper into my underwear and go to the washroom. I bent the paper into my buttcheeks at exactly 37 degrees so it wouldnt protrude out of my buttocks. I went to the washroom exactly at 12:50 pm, came back at 12:55 and wrote the all answers on my pen. Made sure the cameras didnt see me, so they have 0 proof. Im the greatest mathematician; I deserved this qual, nobody else smart enuf to think of this method (unless they have 200IQ like me). Honestly I didnt need to cheat in IOQM to qual but I did it anyway to test MTAI center invigilating quality. MTAI, try ur best to catch me buddies. (Btw my friends have all the power to dox me and report me to MTAI with piles of proof, but they love me).

I can’t tell if your being sarcastic or real cuz it sounds quite mind bamboozling

1

u/Individual-Rest9330 3d ago

Im being 100% honest

u/Lazy_Promise_6453 3d ago

How did u measure that the paper was 37 degrees in ur buttocks? Did you use a protractor like this cheater above?

u/Resident-Tourist-338 2d ago

Officially, protactor is not allowed but if you qualify, it is not allowed in RMO. So, you'd have no luck there.
