I had forget the password of this account so created a new account with same name,college etc however later I remembered password of this account. Now, I have same code submitted in both account? Will I be penalized? The new account has literally no activity? Please someone reply

hackxsaras · August 17, 2020, 4:23pm

@admin plz look into this.

akshitm16 · August 17, 2020, 4:25pm

If you submitted from your new account, you should’ve continued with the same account. Why did you submit the same solutions from the old account when you know it’s against the rules?

shubhamsk11 · August 17, 2020, 4:30pm

I didn’t know it was against the rules I promise won’t repeat it.I submitted using old id because it was linked with my resume and linkedin. Can I submit my new account to codechef to close it. @akshitm16

(just curious to know as I am new to this MOSS thing), as first 3 problems of long challenges are mostly easy ,so there exists possibility that code execution is same and some times its even possible that users use same/similar variable names , So if such cases get detected by MOSS checker ,do the users get penalised ?

All of this is taken into account by Code Chef, and btw if you know that you’ve not cheated from anywhere, there is no need to worry

akshitm16 · August 17, 2020, 5:04pm

Send a mail to help@codechef.com describing your situation. Rest is upto them.

paliya_64 · August 17, 2020, 5:09pm

this case just made me think about it, as a guy in this post appears to be the victim of such an incident ,so I was just asking if in case guys like him get justice.

akshitm16 · August 17, 2020, 5:13pm

Those codes are of 2014. There must have been many amendments after that.

paliya_64 · August 17, 2020, 5:14pm

yup, hopefully

shubhamsk11 · August 17, 2020, 5:34pm

You both are penalized or just you?

dhruv788 · August 17, 2020, 6:06pm

There is no need to worry just write it to the admin on mail, and he will say that your rating will not be decreased for this round, and also to delete your second account.
P. S . : It has happened to me as well

anon18089129 · August 17, 2020, 6:14pm

Now you have got the original id please delete the other one in this way you will not be penalized

paliya_64 · August 17, 2020, 6:49pm

thats not my case, its an archive from November 14 contest, So I dont know about the verdict.

humane · August 17, 2020, 7:27pm

Why codechef take 2 months while codeforces take 2 hours to run MOSS

akshitm16 · August 17, 2020, 7:40pm

Just compare the number of submissions.

aryanc403 · August 17, 2020, 8:03pm

No of people who appeal are < 10-20 for each contest on codeforces which isnt the case for codechef.
Most people get downvoted it its their fault before even mike looks at it.

If we talk about post moss time taken. CC needs a lot of man power for these appeals.
