If cut,copy,paste is prohibited then people can’t copy code from the ide/texteditor in which they code like codeblocks,dev etc.Passionate people always avoid these malpractices.People who copy paste other’s code will do it for only few months and after that he/she would get bored and will have no pleasure doing that.But once if he/she thinks for days and gets a green tick,the pleasure he/she would get cannot be equalised even by royal riches.So my advice for people who copy is to awake asap and enjoy the pleasure of getting green ticks by yourself.

I dont think copy pasting is a major problem here. Infact, the problem is copying someone else’s logic or way of solving a problem without making any major effort from ur side.

I also believe in a fair and square contest . Any form of illegal actions should be taken care of. But i am unable to upvote due to less karma to show my support.

The account of the person amit amit(youtube channel) was identified and banned just after the contest ended.

I also wanted to upvote ,but due to less karma I couldn’t.

I too noted the same! Had a post regarding this too… Utkarsh advised to mail at feedback[at]codechef[dot]com. Let’s do it and make the admin aware!

Codechef should also take action against those who have taken benefit from it. this can be found out from the comments. Such contests shouldn’t be rated since so many people have cheated. It’s not fair.

One way I think we can stop them is to publicly harass them across various platforms- Fb, stackoverflow, LinkedIn, etc. It’s not that tough to find their profiles…

sad to see that admin is just keeping a mum on it .
