Lincoln, Nebraska
A total of 411 points were given out to 27 contestants (compared to 410 points over 29 last year), for an average score of 15.22 (compared to 14.14 last year). The problems and solutions for the ELMO, as well as the ELSMO, have been attached to this post. The shortlist will be coming out sometime soon.
This year, the gold medalists were LIU2 Michael Ma, WWP3 Calvin Lee, and WWP4 Ashwin Sah, each with 29 points. The winning team was We Won't Phail WWP, with leaders Ryan Alweiss, Brice Huang, Kevin Li, and Michael Seaman.

Good morning from ARML Las Vegas! Due to popular request, like last year we will be letting AoPS-ers compete unofficially alongside the MOP attendees at the 16th ELMO.
For those of you that don't already know, the ELMO is an IMO-style exam prepared by returning MOPpers for the new MOPpers. You can see links for the ELMO in 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012 and 2013. The ELMO and its shortlist are also available in the USA contest section. The name of the acronym changes every year.
The proceedings are otherwise similar to last year.
We look forward to your participation!

- Sign-up in thread. This sign-up is non-binding and non-mandatory, it's just so I have a rough idea of how many people are submitting.
- You may participate in either Day 1, Day 2, or both. I will post the top scores from each day as well as the top total scores.
- Both days are due 72 hours after Day 2 is posted.
- Each day should be taken under the same conditions as the USAMO, with one exception: you can type up your solutions in LaTeX if you prefer.
- Submit your solutions as a PDF, either scanned or LaTeX-ed, to mockjmo.solutions@gmail.com. Do not send solutions by PM.
- Please do not discuss the problems with others who have not taken the contest until the solutions are posted here. If you want to chat about the problems with people who have already seen the test that is perfectly okay, but please do not spoil the problems for others.
We look forward to your participation!
