Source: Use your common sense! (enough is enough)
Some users don't want to learn, some other simply ignore advises.
But please follow the following guideline:


To make it short: ALWAYS USE YOUR COMMON SENSE IF POSTING!
If you don't have common sense, don't post.


More specifically:

For new threads:


a) Good, meaningful title:
The title has to say what the problem is about in best way possible.
If that title occured already, it's definitely bad. And contest names aren't good either.
That's in fact a requirement for being able to search old problems.

Examples:
Bad titles:
- "Hard"/"Medium"/"Easy" (if you find it so cool how hard/easy it is, tell it in the post and use a title that tells us the problem)
- "Number Theory" (hey guy, guess why this forum's named that way¿ and is it the only such problem on earth¿)
- "Fibonacci" (there are millions of Fibonacci problems out there, all posted and named the same...)
- "Chinese TST 2003" (does this say anything about the problem¿)
Good titles:
- "On divisors of a³+2b³+4c³-6abc"
- "Number of solutions to x²+y²=6z²"
- "Fibonacci numbers are never squares"


b) Use search function:
Before posting a "new" problem spend at least two, better five, minutes to look if this problem was posted before. If it was, don't repost it. If you have anything important to say on topic, post it in one of the older threads.
If the thread is locked cause of this, use search function.

Update (by Amir Hossein). The best way to search for two keywords in AoPS is to input
[code]+"first keyword" +"second keyword"[/code]
so that any post containing both strings "first word" and "second form".


c) Good problem statement:
Some recent really bad post was:
[quote]$lim_{n\to 1}^{+\infty}\frac{1}{n}-lnn$[/quote]
It contains no question and no answer.
If you do this, too, you are on the best way to get your thread deleted. Write everything clearly, define where your variables come from (and define the "natural" numbers if used). Additionally read your post at least twice before submitting. After you sent it, read it again and use the Edit-Button if necessary to correct errors.


For answers to already existing threads:


d) Of any interest and with content:
Don't post things that are more trivial than completely obvious. For example, if the question is to solve $x^{3}+y^{3}=z^{3}$, do not answer with "$x=y=z=0$ is a solution" only. Either you post any kind of proof or at least something unexpected (like "$x=1337, y=481, z=42$ is the smallest solution). Someone that does not see that $x=y=z=0$ is a solution of the above without your post is completely wrong here, this is an IMO-level forum.
Similar, posting "I have solved this problem" but not posting anything else is not welcome; it even looks that you just want to show off what a genius you are.

e) Well written and checked answers:
Like c) for new threads, check your solutions at least twice for mistakes. And after sending, read it again and use the Edit-Button if necessary to correct errors.



To repeat it: ALWAYS USE YOUR COMMON SENSE IF POSTING!


Everything definitely out of range of common sense will be locked or deleted (exept for new users having less than about 42 posts, they are newbies and need/get some time to learn).

The above rules will be applied from next monday (5. march of 2007).
Feel free to discuss on this here.

N an hour ago by Blast_S1
Source: JMO 2018 Problem 6
Karl starts with $n$ cards labeled $1,2,3,\dots,n$ lined up in a random order on his desk. He calls a pair $(a,b)$ of these cards swapped if $a>b$ and the card labeled $a$ is to the left of the card labeled $b$. For instance, in the sequence of cards $3,1,4,2$, there are three swapped pairs of cards, $(3,1)$, $(3,2)$, and $(4,2)$.

He picks up the card labeled 1 and inserts it back into the sequence in the opposite position: if the card labeled 1 had $i$ card to its left, then it now has $i$ cards to its right. He then picks up the card labeled $2$ and reinserts it in the same manner, and so on until he has picked up and put back each of the cards $1,2,\dots,n$ exactly once in that order. (For example, the process starting at $3,1,4,2$ would be $3,1,4,2\to 3,4,1,2\to 2,3,4,1\to 2,4,3,1\to 2,3,4,1$.)

Show that, no matter what lineup of cards Karl started with, his final lineup has the same number of swapped pairs as the starting lineup.

Rubber bands

N 5 hours ago by lpieleanu
Source: OTIS Mock AIME 2024 #12
Let $\mathcal G_n$ denote a triangular grid of side length $n$ consisting of $\frac{(n+1)(n+2)}{2}$ pegs. Charles the Otter wishes to place some rubber bands along the pegs of $\mathcal G_n$ such that every edge of the grid is covered by exactly one rubber band (and no rubber band traverses an edge twice). He considers two placements to be different if the sets of edges covered by the rubber bands are different or if any rubber band traverses its edges in a different order. The ordering of which bands are over and under does not matter.
For example, Charles finds there are exactly $10$ different ways to cover $\mathcal G_2$ using exactly two rubber bands; the full list is shown below, with one rubber band in orange and the other in blue.
IMAGE
Let $N$ denote the total number of ways to cover $\mathcal G_4$ with any number of rubber bands. Compute the remainder when $N$ is divided by $1000$.

A game of solitaire is played with $R$ red cards, $W$ white cards, and $B$ blue cards. A player plays all the cards one at a time. With each play he accumulates a penalty. If he plays a blue card, then he is charged a penalty which is the number of white cards still in his hand. If he plays a white card, then he is charged a penalty which is twice the number of red cards still in his hand. If he plays a red card, then he is charged a penalty which is three times the number of blue cards still in his hand. Find, as a function of $R, W,$ and $B,$ the minimal total penalty a player can amass and all the ways in which this minimum can be achieved.

Yes. The AMC score used for your USA(J)MO index is $\text{max}(\text{AIME-qualifying A score}, \text{AIME-qualifying B score})$. As being above 120 automatically makes a score AIME-qualifying, the larger one would be used.

Unfortunately the above is somewhat misleading. The box containing "Congrats! Which AMC 10/12 test(s) did you take?" should be replaced by "Congrats! Which AMC 10/12 test(s) did you qualify for AIME on?". In particular, if you get something like a 132 on the AMC 10A and a 72 on the AMC 12B (assuming a 72 on the AMC 12B does not make AIME, a very safe assumption), you cannot make USAMO regardless of your AIME score. Similarly, if you get something like a 117 on the AMC 12 and a 96 on the AMC 10, you cannot make USAJMO regardless of your AIME score.

As the user who is being spoken of here, I can indeed confirm my index of 84+13(10)=214 qualified for the USAMO index. I too thought that I couldn't make AMO, since I didn't qualify through the 12, and made it because of my 10a score. Apparently, this is not the case. Although a person who does so has to be extraordinarily inconsistent.. Sigh..
