Spontaneous candidatures are now open. Three spots have become available due to some candidates not following the event's instructions after qualifying and confirming their participation. First-come, first-served basis applies. Candidates are asked to submit a 500 to 600-word essay discussing their main motivations for joining the event and describing their vision of an ideal competition (will be checked for the use of AI - prohibited). Only serious candidates will be accepted. Cancellation of the participation will result in the payment of cancellation costs.
