Problems of the Month - June'21
Again I’m here with a new problem to discuss. This month we hadn’t so many problems, but I selected a nice problem from TCO2B; IncorrectCancellation!
The problem had a low acceptance rate so suitable for Problem of the month. Also, it was attractive for me, personally. Also, the problem doesn’t need any special prerequisite so it makes it easy for everyone to think on and learn.

Comments
I think there is a mistake .It should be TCO22 Regionals Qualifying not TCO 21
Hey @The_mysterio,
It's correct, the rounds are for TCO21 Regionals. Regional events are taking place in the first week of August. We will most probably have a parallel round, for the members who did not qualify for the regionals this year.
Thanks
