I think this is them not being confident enough before the event, so they don't wanna be shown a worse result than competitors. By being private they can obviously not publish anything if it didn't work out.

As not-so-subtly hinted at by Terry Tao.

    • Thats not a contentious statement. Its still a pathetic way to behave at a kids competition no less.
