05、竞赛流程 BmMT Rounds
BmMT共有四轮比赛：谜题、个人、团队和接力赛。
- 谜题赛(Puzzle Round): 75分钟，一个以团队为基础的比赛，由各种数学挑战组成，旨在促进参赛者的归纳推理和横向思维。
- 个人赛(Individual Round): 60分钟，由20道简答题组成，横跨数学竞赛中常见的各种科目，包括但不限于代数、几何、计数、概率和数论。
- 团队赛(Team Round): 60分钟，包括20道简答题。学生可以和团队成员一起研究这些问题。
- 接力赛(Relay Round): 40分钟，由20个问题组成，涉及数学的各个科目。本轮比赛的主要特点是：一些问题可能取决于先前问题的答案。
- 决胜局(Tiebreakers): 将为个人赛中得分最高的学生举行，本轮参赛资格将在接力赛结束时宣布。这是一个15分钟的测试。测试由三个问题组成，主要根据正确率评分，其次是提交时间。
The tournament will consist of 4 main rounds —Puzzle, Individual, Team, and Relay.
Tiebreakers:
The tiebreakers will be held for the top scoring students in the individual round. Tiebreaker qualifiers will be announced at the end of the Relay Round, and will be a 15-minute test. The test will consist of three questions, and be scored primarily on correctness and secondarily on submission time; that is, an earlier submission will be worth more than a later one with the same number of correct answers, but less than a later one with more correct answers.
