I think Uzbekistan and Mongolia could not come because of visa/travel problems. Does anyone know any other teams which had similar problems? It's very bad that such things still happen, in this day and age where we have better communications. Arrangements should be made better in future years.

Yes once there was a perfect score of 252

1994

IMO was held in Hong Kong.
69 countries were represented.
There were 30 gold medals, 63 silver medals, and 102 bronze medals awarded.
For the first time ever in IMO history, all the members of a national team scored a perfect 42, earning them each a gold medal. This team was from the USA and consisted of Jeremy Bem, Aleksandr Khazanov, Jacob Lurie, Noam Shazeer, Stephen Wang, and Jonathan Weinstein. Their achievement was featured in TIME magazine.
Oleg Alexandrov earned a bronze medal and became the first Moldavian medalist.
Nasko Karamanov became the first Macedonian competitor to win a silver medal

Only 1... Yufei Zhao, with a score of 35.
We got also 2 silver and 2 bronze.
I'm amazed that we beat Moldova.

Yes, I knew this. BTW, it looked like the world's combined team (pay attention at names of Aleksandr Khazanov, Jacob Lurie, Noam Shazeer, Stephen Wang). And I should rather name that IMO the strangest ever. Because in IMO 1993 two of them (Stephen Wang and Jeremy Bem) scored 22 and 18 pts respectively with 151 pts totals for the USA. And in IMO 1995 another two of them (Aleksandr Khazanov and Jacob Lurie) scored 34 and 31 respectively and USA became 11th with 178 pts. Huh?

Anyway, it would be nice to see one year the perfect China's performance. Mr. Green

It was Moldova that failed. I think, they just could not keep concentrated after such expectations.

It was not only that, but the fact that the Moldovian team was extremely tired. They were away from home for a long time (first they went to the common Romanian training camp at Poiana Pinului, then they had to stay a couple of nights in Bucharest waiting for the plane, then 30 more hours on the plane, then it was the time difference also - so you can imagine how tired they were).

I understand, but are they the only team with such problems? Chinese, Russians and Iranians also had a very tiresome flight and acclimate problems, but have done little bit better.

Well it was not about the tiresome flight but that fact that they left home 14 days before the actual competition begun, spent 2 nights in Bucharest waiting for the flight, and so on.

In plus their leader (altough a great professor, actually it's their professor Smile ) was for the first time at the IMO. I think (in fact I know) that the Russian and Iranian leaders are much more experienced in getting points from all the papers than him Wink

Russian participants leave home about 20 days before the competition (I am almost sure that Chinese leave home at least a month before), and usually spend some nights (1-2) in Dolgoprudny waiting for the flight.

But not so much points depend on a leader, not more than 30 percents, yes?

In general, all such justifications are not for strong guys, while Moldavian team was definitely strong.

By the way, you may know: was an impression of Moldavian guests in the common camp worse or better that of Romanians?

Hey, our team had such problems too, we came there with 5 airplanes changing and waiting in Cuba.In Cuba it was just terrible because it was after huricanne and there wasn't any air conditioner. So I think all the teams had such problems.
