The prefects behind the KLSMC 2026 will attempt their best at maintaining integrity and fair and clean competition, to ensure this the competitors must follow the rules and guideliens:
AI chatbots such as DeepSeek, GitHub Copilot or ChatGPT are discouraged, as all teams are required to make the small intuitive leaps to answer difficult questions, on their own.
Misconduct with other teams is prohibited. This includes answer sharing between same school teams, and general bad manners towards any team.
