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

Most of the submissions for CLOSCHEF and CLEARRR in the last hour are identical. Hope @admin will do plag checks before rating updation.

gamma30 · August 22, 2021, 7:30pm

is plag check even a thing here on codechef?

punitive_1729 · August 22, 2021, 7:37pm

They dont try to even solve it themselves. Solved everything in 1 hour. Shameful @riyaa_03. Submitted 4 of the hardest from the contest in under 15mins.

tejaswarambhe · August 22, 2021, 7:49pm

has that happened before ?

gamma30 · August 22, 2021, 7:27pm

CookOff Div 2, Q4) Clear the array

And so on. I stopped looking at page 6 out of 128. 9/10 submissions that i opened contained the same code.

Now i know that a 5/6/7 start coder would come, copy paste the same thing that they say in every other plagiarism report post i.e “ignore them and focus on yourself”.

I know I know, but hey, I didn’t plagiarize and I am the one suffering. That question wouldn’t get more than 200-300 submission that got 1000.

Maybe i am wrong. I got the wrong idea about competitive programming. I should plagiarize too.

Codeforces is only better option now. Maybe because all Indians are here on codechef

Good Night.

p.s. @admin if you are reading this, please do something about this. Codechef is on a downfall and it would take much time before it loses all its value.

Bro

Follow the link , don’t report publically … i am quoting a line para from referred article .
" But despite this instruction, if you do feel that you need to say something publicly, you can use this topic. Any other new topic that you start related to this will be closed, and you will also risk getting suspended "
In short delete this post and post it under aforementioned link .

Sad to see, you should definitely mail these submissions on the plag email plagiarism@codechef.com at least their graph will get a plag symbol which will be a shame as they won’t be able to share their profile anywhere.

They won’t do any thing, they haven’t since I am practicing. There are lot more better sites eg. Codeforces, Leetcode etc. where you can participate. That’s why I rarely participate here.
Also Div 2 contests are rare too.

tejaswarambhe · August 22, 2021, 8:02pm

Yeah, I prefer codeforces.

roastedcoderr · August 22, 2021, 8:09pm

There are tons of those submissions… you can not mail all those rather it should be implemented in the system.

CROSBLK
Submissions that I could find were plagiarized, just by looking at very few submissions.

Too much cheating in CodeChef Starters 10 Division 2 (Rated)
This is too much… These are only just few examples… There are many more
Also, Most of the solutions of CRDFLP (Div 2) are copied.

I just checked again and I can confirm A LOT of the solutions for CRDFLP (div2) are copied.
No wonder how successful submissions doubled in the last 20 mins of the contest.

It will be very easy to spot cheaters because all the cheaters have gathered on this problem. Please take action against these people.

sosa · August 29, 2021, 2:37pm

why did u delete it… Let everyone know about these people

What a joke, I mean seriously. People seem to get away by cheating as if it’s nothing. Screw you cheaters. Why do we work hard? Just for you to cheat and steal our rating? I’m 1900 on my main and I struggle to become yellow because of such people. I hope they don’t get any job, they are ruining competitive programming. I wasn’t able to solve div2 C today, and the submissions skyrocketed in the last hour. What do you get by cheating? It isn’t cool. Stop being a jerk.

But you know what is a bigger joke? Codechef’s plagiarism check. Seriously? You guys don’t seem to care about anything. Your platform is being ruined by idiots who can’t solve problems and all you do is promote cheating by giving gift cards? No ban hammer, no rating drop, but instead a ducking gift card. Wow. You guys are doing the opposite of what you should be doing. This was my last contest on this platform, and I didn’t think I’d leave codechef on a bad note. Thanks for ruining my day. There are better websites like Codeforces and Atcoder.

You’re not allowed to have opinions about cheating when you’re a cheater yourself.
Your code for MAXTOPO: code
Some other cheater’s code: code
