Abstract
The paper gives an insight in the possibility to use tools and methods usually not allowed at mathematical olympiads and contests for finding correct answers for original problems. Lot of problem examples from the various math contests are given. Possible effects and risks of competition format change are discussed, caused by usage of additional tools and Internet resources.
Keywords:
Olympiads in Informatics, Math contests, competition tasks, grading, online tools.
