Is it rated?

same question

Unfortunately, No!

Friendly Reminder, the contest starts in less than 5 minutes!

I submitted Solution of STRQRYCF ​at 6:33PM during the contest but It showed that my code was only able to pass subtask #2 and I got twenty points < but after contest got over The same code passed all test cases …
here is my solution of STRQRYCF

It shows that my code passed all test cases but I still have total score of 20 which should have been 100.

Yes, there was some problem in the test data for STRQRYCF. After the contest, the problem was rectified and the solutions were rejudged. The scores and rank-list are not updated yet. I would suggest please be patient, it will be updated and shared with you all soon.

@codedreamer_dg Is it fair the solution which gives 100 points in the contest became 20 points after the contest?. The problem was with your test data you should have rectified it before the contest or make the announcement during the contest. I made my last submission at 5:13 whereas the contest ended at 7:00, if your team had rectified it earlier I could have made the required corrections in my solution. I think instead of deducting the score, it’s more justified to discard this problem as it severely effect the ranking.

whatever saying is right but why are you so much concerned about rank in unrated contest.

Thank you for participating. I hope you had a great time solving those problems.

As promised, Merit Certificates will be awarded to the Top 10 participants.
