@vijju123 @admin When will the editorial For May Long Challenge Q- RUBBER will be posted?

Prizes: Top 10 global and top 20 Indian winners get 300 Laddus each.
If I am an Indian participant, in order to win 300 laddus, I need to be in top 20 in India rank list or global ranklist?

Update: Since there is problem in linking of solutions from codechef side, you can view the editorialist solution here

I am a beginner in competitive world,And i have been feeling long challenge division styles are harder than old style ( same for all participants ) becoz i used to solve 3-4 problems in old long challenge style but now i always be able to solve only first problem…
I have noticed the differences between the submissions of Q-1 and Q-2…

is this long challenge new division style good for beginners ?

Any suggestion ?

My feedback -

Questions were nice with unexpected difficulty level wrt May18. This difficulty should continue in future also. One visible difference seen was with no of submissions. There should be 2 more questions in between NAICHEF and BINSHFFL. I’m not asking for easy questions/spoonfeed in future but we can increase no of questions in long challenge. And 2 questions which should be inbetween can be marked as NON SCORABLE PROBLEMS FOR PRACTICE for both divisions. so that we can have both version of contest July18 = (May18+June18).

Is the issue resolved now?

Yes, but what happened?

Invitation to CodeChef June Long Challenge 2018! - Codeforces - that was the issue

I guess you are wrong this time @vijju123

What are to hinting at, @taran_1407

Yeah I think there is some maintenance going on codechef… hence…

No, he didnt set the challenge problem.
