The 2011–2012 Java Olympics
wrapped up on April 28 with a
dramatic final round at Kazakh-British Technical University in
Almaty, Kazakhstan. Out of 1,573
students from 322 universities
who participated in Round One,
only 21 advanced to Round Three,
the finals. Only three of these
would take home a prize.
After a grueling four hours of
testing in which the contestants
had to solve five problems, Igor
Ignatiev (above left), a student
at Chelyabinsk State University
in Russia, won first place. He had
correctly solved four of the five
questions in the first 90 minutes
of the competition and appeared
to have the contest locked up. But
he struggled with the last question while the rest of the field
advanced on him. In the end,
Ignatiev prevailed. Peter Pchelko
and Andrey Misnik finished second and third, respectively.
