You know what worse part is , They will pass the MOSS.
I guess just like Facebook Hackers Cup where you are given input case files and you need to upload output file. Every time a new input file is generated.
I havenāt participated in that but I guess question will be same. So if i solve a question and give you my solution. Do you think that my solution will fail on input file you downloaded.
Ranklist is the real excitement. We cannot totally hide ranklist. I will drive people away from the platform.
We could do this: -
- Hide one or two test file like in codejam.
- Reduce the time from 10 days to 7 or 8 days.
- Make ranklist visible on day 1, day 6,7,8.
I think these points will definitely help.
Although we are discussing and suggesting various solutions codechef doesnāt care. Iām sure they will keep their long challenge as it is.
lmao, this is nothingā¦ check thisā¦
within 5 minutesā¦
yes, that will be a problem
Though it depends on question ( like if it includes large number then itās a good idea to use python/java ). But here can you see that she used C++14 & C for previous competitions. Now she suddenly became fluent in python3.
i do agreeā¦ but 4 minutes for chefswaps + solution? come on!! atleast give some time to read the question and solve test cases manually ā¦ i may be wrong or she may be proā¦ pardon meā¦
Yeah , After a few contest we will see first 8 star user on codechef.
did they take action in last 2 years?
they never take action dude
they just show offf that they have best moss.
they could have penalized atleast few people in the last 2 years
This topic is temporarily closed for at least 4 hours due to a large number of community flags.
This topic was automatically opened after 4 hours.
My suggestions -
- Add a second āChallengeā question which is easy enough for the majority to solve. This will stop the leader-board from stagnating and shared solutions will lose value over time.
- Maybe add a penalty of 10% - 15% points for submitting after the fifth day. I think this is better than reducing the duration of the contest.
- Maybe even hide the number of successful submissions for each question till the end of the contest.
Should we link the Adhaar Card(s)?
But I agree, a lot of fake profiles are currently spreading all sort of things on CC. I think people who are cheating are doing harm to themselves bcoz no matter how good the ranks are you cannot go past the coding exams(JOBS) if all you do is cheatā¦ so Itāll be better to just let Karma watch everything just to sing at the right time.
Congrats on your 4th star @ssrivastava990 .
What about international people?
Bro that was a joke, Sorry I wish that never happens bcoz @galencolin and many like him are Gems and CC without them is incomplete.
I was going to link a comment about that which got massively downvoted on codeforces, but I think itās been deleted - my point is though, it doesnāt seem like many people are big fans of anything like that
2nd suggestion very bad. It may even end up forcing people to co-operate to dominate. Cheating will always be a problem in long contest. I am just focussing on getting bettter.
yeah bro, there isnāt any other option.
So basically working professionals lose flexibility. Quite apalled by the suggestions in this thread, by the way.
