I received a mail on June 1 stating that my submission
was found to be similar to another user’s submission in Starters 136B “My First Geometry Problem”. I replied back the next day, but I haven’t received a response from CodeChef yet. My rating has also been dropped. I would like to request a manual review of this, since the code for this problem is short and natural. For example, all of the below submissions use the same obvious approach as me:
Same brother even I am wrongly accused of plagiarism, this is a easy question and there are very High chances that you codes can match ,still they just drop your rating and accuse you of plagiarism and cheating and not the least give that annoying mark
@emperor100 I am writing to clarify that I have not engaged in cheating during CodeChef Starter 139. Despite this, I was flagged for plagiarism and have not received any mail from CodeChef.
this was the same question for which i was being plagiarized. just shit plagiarism software.as you can see all questions have same approach still i am being plagiarized
Hi sharad_2022,
We found a few of your codes in Starters 136 Division 3 ( Rated ) to be similar to other users’ submissions. We have disqualified all your Submissions. Your rating will be dropped by 275 points as a penalty, and we might also permanently ban some of the cheaters. Here are the solutions we found to be similar:
the links of different submission posted by @sbolt have same approach as mine.
this question was short and easy . it has high chance that approach is similar
There are times when you copy the code from AI engine or simply bad luck that your code is similar to someone else, you are accused of cheating. If you have participated in the context with integrity, then just write to admin. Generally your query get resolved with a week. Same thing happened to me. It got resolved afterwards.
