They got banned! How do you expect someone to post editorials? Anyway, you can see the editorial for one of the problems on codeforces 
.
I agree. They shouldnât make an impact on other collage students. They should just see that the same users donât do it again.
can you provide me a link to that?
I was able to solve the first four questions before they were removed from practice.
Voritex and string
Count uppercase and lowercase characters in each string and add their absolute difference to the answer.

This problem is from codeforces (29B).
I will explain the logic of my code.
Observe that a complete cycle is of time g + r, first part is of g seconds when light is green and you can pass and second part of r seconds, when youâll have to stop for the reamaining time.
Time taken to travel upto traffic signal, t = d / v
Now, if t % (g + r) is less than g then you donât have to stop your bike else, youâll have to stop for (g + r) - t % (g + r) seconds.
Since, data type of t is double, weâll have to use repetive subtraction intead of mod operation.
Finally, answer = d / v + stoppage_time + (l - d) / v

Woah an Organised Cheating Racket busted! It is high time Indian Websites and Coders do something to curb cheating as our community is already having bad image because of events like these. As participants we should all stay away from even giving out/asking for hints in Long Challenges and other contests. It is CHEATING to DISCUSS an On-Going Contest Problem. As simple as that. Well but what happened here is next level. Codechef should do something to ensure fair contests otherwise the value of Codechef goodies/Laddus will be reduced to nothing.
Look like You really âCrackedâ it

Well there were better cheating method available. Like set an easy and simple contest, tell your friend those questions, ask you friend to copy paste them and submit them at some expected time gaps. But thank god they went with most foolish method ever i.e. asking low rating people to consistently beat all the high rated coders, otherwise where will you find threads like these
I was alluding to the general practice of being casual about discussing problems. Also in this case they were pretty foolish and were thus caught. You never know there may have been people with smarter plans and better execution organising contests only to win rewards themselves.
