Updates on curtailing plagiarism

So, admins instead of deleting my posts. Can you reply to me that only with same page of submission I found 4 similar solution, they just changed variables name

This is just one page of checking among many wrong submissions, dumb people were copy pasting same code and were getting compilation error.

Atleast 70% to 80% of people cheated in this problem.

You can manually check them, there aren’t many submissions except of the cheaters

After removing cheaters will the rating and rank will be updated or not? I have not seen any change in rating from the past few contests once it has been assigned remains as it is.

Subject: Appeal of Penalty

Dear CodeChef Team,

I am writing to appeal the penalty I received on Feb 18, 2023 for reason for i caught for plagiarism in START77D. I believe that I have been wrongly penalized as I have not knowingly or unknowingly violated any of the policies outlined in the CodeChef Code of Conduct, FAQ, or the blog post on the cheating saga.

I have thoroughly reviewed the guidelines and policies and am confident that I have not violated any of them. I would appreciate it if you could review my case again and reconsider the penalty.

If there is any specific information or evidence that I need to provide to support my appeal, please let me know. I will be happy to provide it at the earliest.

Thank you for your attention to this matter, and I look forward to hearing from you soon.

Sincerely,
Akash2024

Is this being implemented for recent contests?

Hopefully the increase in submission count from 100 in 2nd hour to 2000 in last hour will become less frequent

yuvi_735213778 · March 19, 2023, 7:05pm

Why are you worrying so much about cheaters ,they are going to do nothing in their life.
Dont worry about rank, our aprroach should be skill.
