will there be plag checks for snackdown round 2

tea_lover · October 20, 2021, 4:37pm

To qualify in SnackDown the rating should be less than 1500 but what about cheaters, they come and cheat a lot and then our rank goes down.

Maybe they will use MOSS it would be advisable since its an international contest. But if they don’t then it will be …SED

shivam565 · October 20, 2021, 5:57pm

agreed.

harshtalreja14 · October 20, 2021, 7:51pm

agreed bro

Why did the submission for the Equal beauty Problem skyrocket?

onlyerror · October 23, 2021, 6:35am

because there are a lot of honest programmers.(If you know, you know)

merc_01 · October 23, 2021, 6:36am

By the blessings of Gigachad

Honestly speaking, I left coding on CodeChef but then I decided to start again. Now after seeing this I suggest every honest programmer should leave CodeChef.

Welcome to codechef! watch the amount of submissions for BINFLIP increase too

jha_rishi · October 23, 2021, 7:21am

I agree, but don’t you think that same people ruin every contest whatever place it is conducting.
they cheat everywhere and in the end, no platform is left for Honest programmers.

The sad reality is that CodeChef knowingly promotes this. They just want engagement and it serves their purpose.

It is obviously expected that people are going to be much more motivated to solve the 4th problem after they see that 3 problems is not enough to move to the next round. Either by giving their best effort, or via some other less honourable means (as hinted by the other commenters).

I think that before the contest time is over, such forum threads are serving no purpose and actually doing more harm than good.

sourabh_0123 · October 23, 2021, 7:38am

codeforces rounds are of 2 hours so cheating factor is very less there.
i think the time on codechef should reduce too.
i especially hate long challanges

pewpiyu · October 23, 2021, 8:47am

this platform has no respect for honest programmers. i simply stopped coding on codechef .

roastedcoderr · October 23, 2021, 9:26am

truth said here.

codechef should use MOSS to remove mass(more than 50%) cheating (althoughcheating can’t be removed 100%, even on codeforces sometimes someone post about individual cheating done by 2-3 people not caught by MOSS).
but they won’t do this since they will lose 50% cheaters also might gain 15-20% who left cc.
basically they don’t wanna lose 30-40% users.

knight_rider45 · October 23, 2021, 9:50am

We all know the reason for that.They should have atleast banned cheaters in the qualifier round itself.

sanskajain2962 · October 23, 2021, 2:26pm

man i think that E is out. 80% of the round is out. idk if there is any point in this round. they need to invalidate this round or qualify the top 200 people and make round 1B only 3 hrs long

vgattani · October 23, 2021, 2:45pm

83.33% to be precise.
Wonderful talent, we have got at codechef!

longtimenoshe2 · October 23, 2021, 3:17pm

What to do now ? even after solving 4 rank crossed 1500
Requesting @admin since its an international contest pretty well known , we request to run the MOSS checker

Just chill out and watch Lockout.
