Q:Will the number of participants change in the second stage? Will I get a medal? Will I get points?\nA:Yes, the number of participants will be smaller since some people won't submit in the second stage. For the purposes of medals and points calculations, we will use the number of participants in the first stage to calculate points and medals.
\n\nAbout 3/4 people will not submit.\nThere is a bug，for 161 teams is the number of who have already submitted.
