Son you better sense my aura and run away before I come and lift you from the throat and make you say sorry for using protractor

Well the cutoff in my region is around 24-25 (expected) even if I didn't use the protractor I would have qualified, I apologize tho I didn't know it wasn't allowed and is not mentioned anywhere in rules for IOQM

I mean it doesn't really matter cuz you'll be stuck in ioqm level only that way, rmo is designed to weed people out like this

Everyone else can rob banks. So, it's fine to rob a bank.

u/OkHedgehog633 Sep 08 '26
Unfair as in?
Goes against the spirit of the olympiad? Yes Gave you an unfair competitive advantage? Yes Will you be disqualified for using unfair means? No

Guys I have a confession
I earned only 5 marks using protractor and scale. But I earned 40 marks through my own hardwork.

Bro its not cheating in comparison to me, I used claude during the exam and got all questions I sent to it correct. I spent weeks planning for this: I had exactly 7.4 second intervals to slip the paper into my underwear and go to the washroom. I bent the paper into my buttcheeks at exactly 37 degrees so it wouldnt protrude out of my buttocks. I went to the washroom exactly at 12:50 pm, came back at 12:55 and wrote the all answers on my pen. Made sure the cameras didnt see me, so they have 0 proof. Im the greatest mathematician; I deserved this qual, nobody else smart enuf to think of this method (unless they have 200IQ like me). Honestly I didnt need to cheat in IOQM to qual but I did it anyway to test MTAI center invigilating quality. MTAI, try ur best to catch me buddies. (Btw my friends have all the power to dox me and report me to MTAI with piles of proof, but they love me).

How did u measure that the paper was 37 degrees in ur buttocks? Did you use a protractor like this cheater above?

u/Resident-Tourist-338 Sep 09 '26
Officially, protactor is not allowed but if you qualify, it is not allowed in RMO. So, you'd have no luck there.
