Wow, calcg.org's great scam
1) Get free publicity on ticalc.org by holding a 'contest'
2) Make the subject of the contest the DUMBEST THING IMAGINABLE (wow an RPN calculator)
3) Profit!
Wow, so it's that easy to get free publicity on ticalc.org... Claim to hold a "contest", then switch the contest to an incredibly simple program (number: push, operator: pop twice, push)
I still sent mine in anyway, don't care.
Got no respect for websites which distribute games uploaded by random people who aren't the author. Eric Bauman would be proud.

You know your hexadecimal output routine is broken when it displays the character 'G'.

Okay, maybe my expectations were just far too high, considering I've been in a couple of ACM programming competitions. Now that's some really hard stuff. I can't even do the real problems of that stuff. (They also include a bunch of moroniclly easy problems to sort-of act as tie breakers during the contests).
I stopped doing ACM programming competitions when they forced me to use vi.
