As already mentioned by other users there’s a lot of mal practice is being carried out in long challenge.
Here’s a few suggestions from my side that may help the genuinity of contest
1.)Change the contest length from 10 days to 7 or 8 days.
2.) Introduction of dynamic rating ,in others words keep the weightage of questions decreasing as per number of days passes by for example let’s a problem will have 100 marks if solved within 2 days of contest and then decrease it by 10
This will inevitably prevent overflooding of submissions at last day
This may also keep in check of those user who first try with their alternative accounts to save their ratings
3.) I know this is not practically possible but still it would be good if there’s an ml application to check plagiarism that would be awesome
