User:Lord.of.AMC

Welcome!

Greetings everyone! I am Lord.of.AMC, and can go here by LoA, AMC, Lord.of.AMC, the more slangish "Lordie," or on especially rare occasions, "Bad Loed" or equivalent. Please do not use the last one frequently; it sounds quite awkward and can result in decently harsh consequences.

I am also very against the usage of real names in chat. Any usage (which I have confirmed to be the actual real name of the person whose name is used) from now on will be reported to admins on sight. I applaud you (scornfully) for being able to find my real name, but please keep it to yourselves and do not openly reveal it on a public site like this. That is very insensitive behaviour.

I am also practising my usage of British spellings and grammar! You may private message me with any thoughts on this matter, although I will deny requests that are blatantly incorrect. Again, practice makes perfect!

Contest Results!

2010, my 4th grade year: This was my first year I seriously started doing contest math. 20 on AMC 8, 90 on AMC 10A, 96 on 10B.

2011, my 5th grade year: I improved quite a bit. 22 on AMC 8, 121.5 on AMC 10A, and 115.5 on AMC 10B. Hey, that 121.5 actually cleared the AIME cutoff! 4 on AIME.

2012, my 6th grade year: 24 on AMC 8, 114 on AMC 10A, 124.5 on AMC 10B. 8 on AIME, so 204.5 JMO index, the cutoff was 204, so I made it! Hey! 3 on JMO. Also, in MathCounts, 41 at chapter --> 36th place. Pretty pathetic. I need to improve.

2013, my 7th grade year: __ on AMC 8, 123 on AMC 10A, and 141 on AMC 10B. 8 on AIME again. 221 JMO index; hope that makes it. MathCounts: 41 at chapter gets me 7th, and 41 at state gets me 15th. Need to improve more. I still have one year left.

Blog

You may check out my blog here. Please do not abuse. I would also like suggestions on accepting contributors (as I am terrible at this, and usually my contributors don't do anything or do not post content that I feel appropriate).

Other Competitions

I also do the competitions Codeforces, and TopCoder. Due to the trending AoPS phrase "Bad Toed" used to describe user User:AwesomeToad, they are usually replaced with names Toedforces and TopToeder. According to another AoPS user, I seem to suck at both of these competitions.

HMMT teams

Due to the fact that we were "initiators" for one of the HMMT team in Texas, I (really we) get the privileges for organising a team. If anyone'd like to join our team, go ahead and email me at loa.aops@gmail.com. Once that email gets in, I will determine if that request is legitimate and will then provide a more legitimate email for contacting purposes. Troll emails are not advised; I've written spambots before and can spam you back. Please note: We may need parental confirmation if a request is made. Please have a parent's email address or phone number ready as you contact.

Important note: The HMMT rules require that teams must have members from the same or neighboring states. Hence, we only accept requests from students residing in Texas, New Mexico, Louisiana, Oklahoma, and Arkansas.
