Procedural reminders to contestants
Keep in mind these simple principles to make sure your submission is well-formed:
- Accessibility. All submissions must be accessible for the Jury to open and view without a password, so please double-check your submission. If the submission is inaccessible or does not fit the criteria described, jurors have the right to reject the submission.
- Timing. Contestants must submit their work before the closing of the filing of applications. If not submitted on time, the submission will not count.
- Contact information. All submissions must contain the contestant’s contact information, preferably a Telegram username by which jurors can verify that the submission belongs to the individual who submitted it. If not, jurors have the right to reject your submission.
- Content. The content published in the forum and the provided PDF file should not differ, except for formatting. Otherwise, jurors have the right to reject the submission.
- Well-formed links. Suppose your submission has links to the work performed. In that case, the content of those links must have the contestant’s contact details, preferably a Telegram username, or backlink to your submission at the FreeTON forum, so jurors can match it and verify to whom the work belongs. If not, jurors have the right to reject your submission.
- Multiple submissions.
Each contestant has the right to provide several submissions if they contain different approaches to the contest problem’s solving. However, if works are not unique enough or differ just in insignificant details, jurors have the right to reject such repeating submissions.
If the contestant wants to make an additional submission that overrides the one previously published, he must inform the Jury about this fact and indicate the correct revision to assess. In this case, only the indicated work will count. If the contestant hasn’t indicated the updated submission as the correct one, only the first one will count, the Jury will reject all the others.

- Friendship. Rivalry in the contest does not exclude friendship. On the contrary, friendship could grow from noble rivalries.
- Solidarity. It is important to support each other and share feelings, aims and dreams. Mutual support brings mutual success on and off the field.
- Tolerance. The willingness to accept behavior or decisions you may not agree with develops your self-control. Ultimately, that could be the deciding factor when it comes to winning or losing.
- Plagiarism-free. Your work should be the product of your own mind and contain at least 90% of the original content. If some part of your work is taken from another source or submission, you must clearly cite the source.
