We decided to conduct an event on the first day of APOGEE – 11th March . It would be a trial by fire , as it would be a hardcore coding contest fashioned on the ICPC model . It was to start from 8 p.m. and end at 11 p.m. Starting as it was on the first day , it did not really have very high hopes on the number of participants . But stunning everybody , there was an unexpected turn-out of more than 70 teams , a turn-out so large that we actually had to turn back teams who wanted to participate. That one contest showed us that we had wings .
Now , we could fly .
