when will the laddus be given to the winners and also the certificates??

5

Personally, I’m not at all in idea of pretests for LTIME, as LTIME is mostly intended for IOI aspirants, so preferably, it should follow IOI format as much as possible.

6

why are editorials still not up for August Lunchtime :frowning:

7

I guess the ‘Prizes’ section should be edited.

8

This post has upvote (Can be verified by see karma history @allllekssssa). But it is not reflected here. Reporting a bug. xD

9

Thats because I wikified the post first and then upvoted @aryanc403 . Wikified posts dont contribute to user’s karma.

10

I’m talking about upvote by @the_extractor .

11

Thats a good bug then, helping me in moderating forums and keeping rules implemented :). BTW, any comments about translators @aryanc403 ? :slight_smile:

12

Yes, they are learning. This time Invitation to CodeChef August Lunchtime 2018! - Codeforces corrected. Next time on this page. xD

13

@vijju123 You missed. I got to know about @the_extractor 's upvote by karma history of @allllekssssa . Upvote counter didn’t increased but karma’s were awarded. I reported about this on some other questions also.

14

I dont understand the issue. When I wikified, there was already 1 upvote which was of @the_extractor. Then I wikified and upvoted so its 2. Whats wrong in the count?

15

xD @vijju123
codechef server is with you… it helps u in moderating too XD
hahaha, about translators…

16

I am not sure about what more features but it can be something which can be implemented because all problems run on basic test cases only… and hence soln accepted at that time won’t be 100% correct…

17

I had already given a suggestion to @admin to implement pretest-systest for LTIME with points awarded per test file passed. However, there are issues changing format of existing contests according to them, like no monthly contest on IOI-style marking etc.

They said the idea might be used for any future contest though and liked that. :slight_smile:

18

That contest was not unrated due to codechef’s fault. There are other external dependencies out of which one severely failed. Codechef cannot do anything about that, sadly.

19

okay… that’s nice…

Yes, I agree to that. Its a critical issue/downside of my suggestion, but hopefully its the only one. :slight_smile:

22

I am not proposing it only for LTIME… The main reason for this idea is load on severs… So I proposed it for short contests… Maybe for cook off…

Editorials for first 4 problems are out.
