One-time Penalty-Free Voucher¶
There is one chance to submit checkpoint of mp_verif, mp_pipeline, mp_cache late by 3 days without any penalty. This does not stack with the previous late policy, this only removes the penalty. You can still only submit at most 3 days late. Use the one chance wisely as no exception will be made after that regardless of the reasons.
That is to say, your score \(S\) at each checkpoint is given with:
Where \(S_n\) is your score at the \(n\text{th}\) day after the deadline.
