I want to hear from @admin, what codechef is doing regarding plagarism and by when MOSS checking will be over. @admin has never given any clear reply on what is codechef doing regarding this.

Can we make a list of YouTube Videos where solution to problem is given and mass report the channel+video?

It’s pretty obvious you have cheated in all the problems at least after tic tac toe. and ban would be permanent not for 2 - 3 days.

The king killing question which had been solved only by 117 till today morning had double solves within 2 hours before the end of the contest. Damn, this cheating is going on another level. @admin plz do something. Atleast update the ratings by removing the cheaters within reasonable time not 1 year.

I started checking the solutions submitted for modequation and out of the latest 50 barring 3-4 people all of them have copy pasted the same code from somewhere just changing the variables .
If I compile a list for the same then it will have thousands of name .
I am sure admins are well aware of the extent of cheating which has happened this time around .
In the future I will never give long if things go like this on reputed platform like codechef .There are websites,youtube videos,telegram groups leaking solutions in open for almost all the problems as 10 day is a huge time for a contest .
There needs to severe action against those who submitted the same copy paste codes and codechef should run moss before updating rating for the contest .

In fact, I just checked your solutions and all of them matches with a guy from my college, who obviously himself has cheated.

You can now find the solutions which people have submitted and most probably you would find the exact same code for most of the submissions .
yes many had copied modeq and all

Yup the ISS and MODEQ solution may be same for most of the people participating in Long but the king killing question solution 268 people have solved… last time I saw it was 110 or something… No words to say…

This is sooo right. I have score 630, the second highest score and my rank is 236. How the heck do you expect me to believe that in the time span of today morning to today afternoon about 100 people solve a problem that they couldn’t solve after trying for even 10 days?

What kind of cheating happened in the last problem. I just had my lunch and it had 130 solves and when i came back its 268. Better to unrate rather than receiving delta from such a contest.!

I also decided from now I will participate in cook off and lunchtime only, long challenge have good questions and is best for learning no doubt… but solving after the contest is the best way to be protected so that rating may not fall…

The problems were very nice. It’s just that these cheaters kill the fun of trying these problems…

I think those people will be sad who did really well (like got score of 500) or something will still lose delta because more than 20% of the participitants did better them, which is absolute nonsense.
Yes. Sure.
