So basically, Codechef has the policy for checking the codes for plagiarism after the end of the contest but the last time plagiarism results were displayed, it was a year ago.
Secondly, plagiarism check is done only for higher problems and not for easy questions so do not worry about your solution.
Thirdly, Codechef checks the code manually after the plagiarism report and then take a final call, but they do however give a week time to the participant to convince Codechef that they didnāt plagiarized the solution
They have written, that they conduct plagiarism check after the contest.
But results were declared last year. So we are also not aware that they do plagiarism check after the event or once a year. But mostly they do! but it wonāt affect you unless you plagiarized
What the fuck is going on codechef. Most of the person are cheating solutions solutions are leaked on youtube for except 2 problems 520/700 score person also have rank around 200.
What the heck is going on we the people who try to solve problems work hard on them and rest guys copying solutions are the sameā¦ Please do something @admin make long challenge unrated or anything that you can do to stop this scam going onā¦ It really making me frustated.
I kinda wait for others to cheat. Its a game for me. I am like a cheater hunter. Enjoy the chase, learn the lessons(yeah do not forget upsolving and reading blogs on codechef/codeforces). Until you reach there. find a cheater and make his ratings drown. Laugh a little. Find his linkedin. May be post his cheating in one of the linkedin posts. So many ways to have fun but all you wanna do is cry.
If you are so much frustrated then donāt give Long. CC already knows cheating happens and may be taking some action for it. Long is only one of its variety. So, Long challenges are not going to stop.
Anyways, I have always asked to make separate rating for Long contests and short contests
yeah actually the thing some of us donāt want to focus so much on āmaking his ratings downā , āfinding his linkedinā. But it really breaks your heart if you try hard and give your hours to the problem , while someone else just copies it.
This is an online judge , this is there contest and it makes sense that they take care of it. I know it canāt be 100% stopped anyways , but it is now more than ever.
This is true , the cheating has substantially increased during this May Long challenge for some reason. Some youtube videos have popped up. I do not say make it unrated , but atleast look into it,
and i know they will.
I totally agree. May long was plagiarized like any how. I donāt think starting from tic tac toe problem, any problem was easy but solutions are coming in large numbers. On my fourth day my ranking was 200 with 430 points now my rank is 2000. I mean initially the accuracy for tic tac toe as well as modular equation was around 10-15% percent but the people are giving solutions so quickly.
i think long challenges should continue since many participate in it to learn .
But the problem is with delayed plagiarism check (almost once in 2 yrs ) .
@admin it would be better if u can give data at what interval the plagiarism will be punished
i think its not impossible to punish cheaters once in 3 months
that would greatly improve the credibility of codechef
we cant stop cheaters , thats true, but codechef should do whats best from their side right ??
even if its tough to run moss ā¦ can u just check the reported solutions ?
