Yes, it is the final LunchTime of year 2014. And almost everyone we speak to these days is having trouble believing that the year has come to an end. Even for us, the year has flown by and we have all of you to thank for it. We had a wonderful time in all our contests throughout the year, and we hope you enjoyed them too. And the December LunchTime 2014 was the last one for the year, so let us have a quick look at the proceedings of the contest.
The problem set for the December LunchTime 2014 came from the experienced Taun Anh, who cooked up the problems perfectly to satisfy the young participants from schools. And the problem tester Gedi Zheng, who also was the Mandarin translator for them, gave his approval by thoroughly testing them. The editorials for the problems came from Praveen Vaka, for whom it was a kind of a comeback to the LunchTime series after a brief gap. So give him a warm welcome by munching his editorials. The Russian translation of the problem statement came from Sergey Kulik. With those names in the problem setting panel, we were all set to bid adios to the year 2014 by putting up one final contest for the year.
The December LunchTime 2014 started with a flurry of accepted submissions on TADELIVE, and it brought an instant joy for us. It was good to see participants enjoying the problems right from the start of the contest. The first AC came from yutaka1999 of Kaisei Junior High School and Senior High School, Japan and has been a regular name in our LunchTime rank table. And soon we found many more familiar names taking their places in the rank table. But there were comparatively new ones in fataleagle, fullpower, mazeyu and some others, which is a great sight to have.

I didn’t know Serbia was in India. Huh, I guess my geography knowledge has been totally wrong…
Hey Xellos, It was a mistake from our side. We have edited it. Thanks for bringing it to our attention.
