Use this for anything related to plagiarism - Reporting cheating, appeals, etc

Yes one of them even “sold” solutions on this telegram channel Telegram: Contact @codechef_long_solutions. I’ve already reported it few days ago.

Let’s be honest. There’s no point in believing in code-chef with those matters. Their system is f***ed up and so is codechef :upside_down_face:

So guy’s i have noticed that from past few months there are rise in cheating during long challenge.

And I found that the main reason behind that is the Youtube channels posting Solution videos, few are fake, few are real , some of them are explaning solution with code, some of them are just explaning question and we can see in comments that the person proudly saying i am just explaning question to beginners ( Even understanding the question is part of solving it).

From past few months i was knowing this Youtube stuffs but i was ignoring it but this time the video is out on first day itself.

we know that few people get the solution from their friends but we can not do anything for it, but we can do somthing to this fake youtube Coders.
we just have to come together and Report this Youtube Channels and also tag the codechef admin so that even codechef should take strick action against them.

Do not just report the video but also report the Channel so that we can stop such things.

1)Here the Hero who released the video on frist day.

2)Here You may not able to see video Right now, but i have noticed that this channel leaked the FINXOR question which i solved by my full potential ( It hurts ).

3)Here with same on first day along with face like he is 6 star coder (haha).

4)Here again one more

so guy’s here i am giving channel link so that there may be the chance that they all tries to make video private and to hide from our report.
If you may not find the video link working don’t think they are not doing it report that channel.

Beside this fake YouTubers we also have good Youtube Channel:slightly_smiling_face:

This channels post Videos after the Contest, So if someone really want to learn and solve the questions so can reffer this channels.

I was told that this would be more appropriate to post in this thread rather than in its own thread. After the November Challenge 2020, I wanted to see how others solved the UNSQUERS problem, since I has having issues with it during the competition. When I took a look at the solutions, I noticed that most of the accepted solutions were using virtually identical code, even down to spacing and newlines (there are more examples, but I’m just limited to 10 links in a post).

I witnessed it also, and was shocked when I saw C++ submissions with 100% results, almost all were same. Because of these cheaters, our actual ranking and rating would be higher, its a shame.

Is there any chance that codechef is going to take quicker strict actions against cheaters? For how long others will pay for not cheating in the long challenges by reducing their ratings while the cheaters’ rating climb higher and higher.

What is the update on MOSS? What was the last contest that was scanned?

@admin please ban this user @Anurag_ad_01 (Profile link-https://www.codechef.com/users/Anurag_ad_01) . He has been selling solutions of long challenge. Also if possible keep a moderator for these groups. Proof-

I don’t know how to find a user wether he/she is cheating. …?

I will help to find them…:smiley::smiley::smiley:

When the actions will be taken against these cheaters? It brings down the morale of other contestants by seeing them cheating and yet no actions are being taken against them.

Is there any way to combat pseudo codes which are being posted on youtube while the contest is live because such cheaters who get the solution from those videos are hampering the ranks for the guys/gals who solve the problems honestly.

December long challenge ended today for the 10 days all the pariticipants worked hard on solving problems but there were some who also resorted to unfair means for improving their ratings, But this is very sad for those who invested all their time and efforts,Hereby i would like to mention two whose code i found to be very similar @admin please have a look at their code @prajjo2014 and beingbravado
https://www.codechef.com/viewsolution/40276866
https://www.codechef.com/viewsolution/40437199
Look their codes are exactly same and even @beingbravado first coded it in java and then switched his code to C++ which got accept in first attempt only.
Please do not cheat this is very disheartening and rating does not matter just build your skills instead of copy pasting your code @prajjo2014 and @beingbravado
Please respect this platform. Have some ethics

Just look at anurag_ad_01 submissions. Initially lord anurag was struggling with initial problems and then he solved rest in 1attempt
