@shraeyas
When I open my username to see my attendnce. It is showing wrong against all contest of March. But I was present in cook off and long challenge. So, reporting minor bug here.
Btw I was also present in oct17. You can see my rating fall. But since I was not able to solve any question. So Your tool is showing me absent.
@shraeyas Please add March Lunchtime 18 as unrated in your tool. As mentioned here How do I win a CodeChef Goodie? - #8 by gomu - faq - CodeChef Discuss
Username is not being validated.
Even if we enter wrong username, it shows attendance instead of showing the error.
Hey @shraeyas
Nice Tool.
I guess u missed one thing. Problem setting panel is also deemed to be participating in the contest, for the purpose of attendence, as i know.
For example, @vijju123 was editorialist for APRIL18, but he is shown to have not participated in APRIL18. (Wasnt stalking. Just thought of this possibility and searched for the Master Chef Vijju )
@shraeyas I was not able to solve any question in April Cook Off. It shows me absent but I’m present and I have made ~5 unsuccessful submissions.
A great idea and implementation!
For the past couple of days I have been trying to check my attendance but it shows invalid username. Have tried with a bunch of different usernames and all the same error message.
The only confusion I have presently is whether I should remove that CodeChef Logo or not(Cause it’s unofficial :p).
I will remove it if they ask me to.
Regarding logo, send them a mail. It would be safe that you “informed them”, instead of using it until they retaliate. Cause logos and stuff…its usually best to take permission to avoid unnecessary hassle.
And lmao, i knew you will bring something like this up when i saw you thanking for idea.
Great work:)
Absolutely. I just wrote the code for the basic site, didn’t even think much about additional features.
I will definitely add this feature in the near future.
Thank You
Its showing i didnt attend march cook-off. But i did attend it (it was declared unrated later)
It actually tracks the changes in ratings and then tell us if someone participated or not.
But I will try finding a fix on that, but till then kindly bear with me (need to study for exams too ).
Thanks for pointing that out.
I guessed that it would be checking changes in ratings, as its makes it very easy to code .
He mentioned in above comments that its because that contest was unrated. His algo checks for changes in ratings.
Lol…11 sec difference b/w comments. Time to study for exams XD
ROFL XXXXXXXXD
