Hello AoPS!

Over a month ago, I started semicolon math and today I am happy to host the first contest! Semicolon Math is a platform that offers math contests every month with 2 easy, 2 medium, and 2 hard AIME level problems. The format is similar to contests you will find on some competitive programming contests.
