From 2970: I just spoke with one of our upper mentors, and we are making a push to go to the IRI. To put it lightly: If our team is not invited, or fails to be accepted, I will take it as a major personal loss and work twice as hard on whatever team I will be mentoring next year. Or I'll just try again. After all, some of the most complex software algorithms were found by brute force and huge numbers of iterations.
