Announcement - Jan LTime and future contests

karan_221 · January 30, 2021, 7:06pm

Why not hold contest for each division at separate time to reduce stress on server?

ashwat_b · January 30, 2021, 7:06pm

Please roll back the rating change of January Cookoff. I faced same problem in cookoff.

shashwat_iiita · January 30, 2021, 7:07pm

This is not good for us, we faced problems but our submission was accepted in last…
Please review your decision…

This was much better than cook off. The cook off was rated and this is unrated.
What is even going on?

For most part, people were able to submit solutions except maybe for few minutes at the end.
The queue was not ideal but it was same for everyone.

I have been competing since 2 months and I am still waiting to receive a rating in lunch time.

This time I even got a double digit rank, but regardless of what I got, it’s just terrible to make it unrated after the contest…

To be honest, January Cookoff was much worse than today’s Lunctime. Lunchtime didn’t face a lot of server issues. Yet, you guys made Cookoff rated and Lunchtime unrated. It would be fair to rollback rating changes for Cookoff. Otherwise u have to make this Lunchtime rated. Otherwise there is no point. Coz Cookoff was worse.

Though there were some server issues, yet people have managed to submit this time . In Jan cook-off 2021 , there issues were more then this time but it was rated , now when people have invested their times in this , its made unrated .
Rated and unrated should be decided on the number of submissions . If we see the submissions , A, B,C,D,E and F are having the same amount of submissions which a normal lunchtime has .
If it was to be made unrated , then this should have been announced during contest like codeforces does .

sneha1122 · January 30, 2021, 7:13pm

there wasn’t any server issue , i solved 5 (ps: i didn’t watched big boss too, and now you are declaring it unrated kudosss!!!)

anish_28 · January 30, 2021, 7:13pm

Please, rollback the January cookoff ratings too. The situation was worse back then. This is unfair. @admin

masterninja · January 30, 2021, 7:14pm

yeah bro, I completely agree with you. The same thing happened with me

adarsh08x · January 30, 2021, 7:17pm

Last contest (Cookoff Jan ) had more issues wrt this contest , i performed poor in last contest still it was rated, this contest had very less issues compared to cook off i performed decent in this contest it’s unrated, seems fair, FML

viveksing9780 · January 30, 2021, 7:19pm

kaushal_1113 · January 30, 2021, 7:20pm

arvind_241999 · January 30, 2021, 7:21pm

I was not face any server error other then submission queue. Contest goes totally smooth for me. But yeah it is better to postpone further short contest and solve the server issue first.

pranav_123456 · January 30, 2021, 7:28pm

Ahh!! Here we go again … The story of Codechef and its servers continues.

angeshs · January 30, 2021, 7:29pm

Why january Cook-Off was not unrated?? We faced more difficulties in that contest compared to this one.

mayur_chrs · January 30, 2021, 7:30pm

First time I have solved 5 questions in lunchtime and you have made this contest unrated. Don’t do this.
