this too amuses me. I am not too experienced in development, and this is my first year of google code jam, and I've practiced a little the last week (solved 4 non-beginner problems)
I would say it took me two to three hours to solve the chessboards <http://code.google.com/codejam/contest/dashboard?c=619102#s=p2>one. Seeing someone solve four complicated problems in 40 minutes, leaving 10 minutes per problem is undeniably mindblowing. Makes me want to believe that there is some kind of cheating going on... hahaha.
