DEFT2020 Contest

It hurts when we submit the solution with all efforts and time and all of a sudden a message popped out saying “Sorry, you are not allowed to access this contest as it is restricted. Please contact the contest organizer to access this contest.”

11

I wanted to submit, man : (

12

agreed…
I had already solved 2 and submitted 1 problem (I only saw the contest when i logged in at around 4:10) and then it suddenly goes …whoops

13

Try solving them on GFG (if they are available).

Also, the questions in this contest had no main test cases other than “sample test case”. So, not worth to submit it here. Because it will right answer, if the sample passes. I am saying that because I tried this thing in 3-4 questions to check, because mostly all the solution time’s were 0.0 (for nearly all the problems), and it worked.

14

Guys submit it on geeksforgeeks. Just google search the problem name. You can easily find them on geeksforgeeks.

16

Same here dude. What to say? as per “contact the contest organizer to access this contest” Does codechef provide contact details of organiser. I want to say something to that person. Just joking :rofl: :rofl: :joy:

17

i could only see what the first two problems were before the error popped up…

this is th link for VIEW2009

ikr…i don’t even know who hosted the contest! I bet it is there on the contest page, but …
to anyone who didn’t notice, the contest vanished within the first 5 minutes of me opening it in the first place !! :sweat_smile: :flushed:

19

this This is the guy who has hosted the contest. :joy: :joy: :joy:

20

Are you sure?
the guy couldn’t even solve his own problem in the first go lol

The details were not stated clearly

Under “Contest Details”, the details for registration were as follows:

Registration:

You just need to have a CodeChef username to participate. No separate registration is required. If you do not have a CodeChef ID create one here.

But when I tried submitting it turned out that you need to register for the contest. The form included College details, but under contest details, it said anyone could participate.

@wicked_knight Not only one problem, approximately all the problems were copied from GFG.

24

yeah i am sure.

25

so i have heard, but i was only able to see two problems before the error message popped up

26

i checked his submissions and he got VIEW2004 wrong the first time :flushed:
if he’d organized this…wow!

r/whooooooosh

27

Yes, and I suppose now they will have your phone number on top of that. That’s why I didn’t register, but it turns out it was a good decision for other reasons as well.

28

phone number, email_id and what not…but i thought it is required so i filled it up? they can’t possibly want to steal my data now, could they :flushed: :worried:

29

Some other problems I was able to find:
Phone Directory
Alien language
SSC

I left the contest after seeing 3 copy pasted problems.
