I haven't posted in almost a month, I guess it shows how boring my life has been.
Finally break, yay, time to do math and stuff.
Also I might end up with B's in English and French (still waiting for the huge drops in my grade) for some silly reasons, especially in English (we had a sketchy "vocab test" as our final, which pretty much made everyone miss 3 out of 40 points since it was a A or B section and it didn't say anything about both being a possibility, which was the answer for all of them, lots of other stuff as well).
Argh USAMTS #5 (current round)...
Edit: It seems that I have found a funny solution yay. Except it is really long and overkill. At least it can easily prove a much stronger bound (all it takes is extreme determination).

Edit: OK yay I think I improved the 10 pages to 2 or 3? Still writing. I learned lots of bashing techniques along the way so I guess it wasn't a complete waste of time finding the overkill solution...
Edit: Yay protest approved blah.
