Recently long challenge may 2022 ended and there was so much cheating involved I solved according to my capability but still my ranks are decreasing like waterfall, how can div4 people with a new account and giving first contest can solve all questions and on last day there are exponential increase in submissions of 6,7 and 8th problems. So bad to see all this people selling solutions and it doesn’t.
Stop conducting long challenges instead conduct 3 short challenges of 1.5hrs for 3 days so that no one can cheat.

yes, that is true, but few of the many accounts that solve all the questions are alt accounts of coders who are way more skilled that do not belong to div 4.
why they are not responding for my appeal against false plag check
i submitted a sol which was WA in start34B then i didnt try to submit anymore i skipped that contest and for that my rating already fall for that contest but then they plag my code and decreased my rating by -315?
Like WTF is this
they are not even responding my mails
Kindly check your inbox/spam for this email having the subject line “CodeChef - You have been caught for plagiarism in” along with the contest code and follow the instructions given there. The appeal phase will happen in the original plagiarism email thread.

Omg this admin is OP. Really glad to see codechef taking action.
I have just one question : Do honest coders rating would get updated ? ( these cheaters have given great damage to the rating of ours ; we should get what we deserve . ) I believe in the supremacy of this new admin 
I request the admin to please modify the rating after the plagiarism check is done in today’s contest - “Starters 41”. It seems that there is so much plagiarism practised in today’s contest. We can wait for 10-15 days in place of our rating getting decreased due to these cheaters.
Request to make the round unrated first due to technical issues then plag check

Respected Sir/Madam,
I am Ravi Jha, CodeChef User ID : ravikjha7. I have been plagarised in Starters 39 Question No 3. The Question was very straight forward and we just have to print
2 4 6 8 … upto n terms
3 5 7 9 … upto n terms.
Now, I just don’t know how many ways are there to do so. I have been told that my code matches with two people, I don’t know any of them and also my code is not completely same as them. I still don’t undertand why I have been plagarised.
So, I request CodeChef to please look into the problem as soon as possible and remove the plagarism as soon as possible. I have attached screenshots of codes of people who have been mentioned to have same code as me and you can clearly spot the difference. Thank You !!!

People Who Have Been Told To Have Same Code As Me :

PS : I have raised the issue on Twitter
https://twitter.com/ravikjha7/status/1534382498435809282
Those who really think, I shouldn’t have plagarised. Please retweet so that CodeChef can see the tweet… Thank You !!!
The question might be straightforward but from the other solutions it clearly appears only variable names have been changed.
Yes Sir, But If my code is matching just with two people in the entire country or maybe entire world and I don’t know any of them, then how could this be a case of plagarism? I think it’s just my mistake that I failed to check their mail earlier and now I don’t think I could do something, Anyways, Thanks For Reading and Reacting To The Discussion. I am not going to stop giving contests or discontinue my CP Journey. This Plag will be a lesson for me to check my mails frequently. Thank You !!!
I have raised the appeal a week ago as a reply on their email, but haven’t got any reply yet !!!
