Numsgil:
I think it's done virtually so no travel required.

Personaly wouldn't say Java is "better" than C++. I guess it's something a lot of people have been debating for a long time, but personaly I prefer C++ over Java. (Although garbage collection is nice, I always forget to add something to the destructor )

Shasta:
Something to note is that the maximum team size is 4, so if more people wish to do this we may have to split into a couple of teams, that is if you want to work as a team.

Moonfisher:
Well I think working as a team is part of the experience, and more fun. Also most people here probably don't go to one of the registered schools, so the only way to participate is being on a team with someone able to join...

In case people wan't to practice, I noticed the game looked somewhat like one I encountered before :

As I recall the language is C++, and it looks similar to the screen on the site. Not as fun as DB though  And their leagues have a 32 kb limit to the code submitted, which can be a real pain since the language invites you to do proper code structure and then you're forced to destroy it all later on when you need space. (You can choose to increase the cap though, but then it no longer qualifies for the leagues.)

triclops200:
Woo Hoo! Partially fluent in Java now... I'm good to go.
