I recently received a plagiarism notice for my submission in Starters 155 B, which was surprising as I’ve always approached contests with integrity.
For this problem, I used ChatGPT to assist with a basic approach—arranging "3"s minimally in each row and column, with "2"s filling the rest. This logic is simple and intuitive, so it’s plausible others arrived at similar code independently. In fact, my solution (CodeChef: Practical coding for everyone) closely matches another submission (CodeChef: Practical coding for everyone), possibly by coincidence or similar GPT assistance.
I’ve linked the images of ChatGPT session to show my approach. I kindly request reconsideration of the plagiarism mark, as I am committed to honest participation and contributing positively to CodeChef. I am not able to attach the link of ChatGPT’s Session with me, as it’s not allowing me to attach Links.
Thank you for your time and understanding.

I am attaching additional details of the session here. However, I’m unable to attach the session link. If you need further information, please email me gonxkilluaxbisky@gmail.com, and I will send you the link.
I’ve been trying to reach out for the past two months regarding the plagiarism mark on my profile. I’ve emailed both help@codechef.com and plagiarism@codechef.com around 5–6 times, attaching all the necessary proofs, but I haven’t heard back from you yet.
On top of that, my post on the community forum was hidden right after I posted it, though it was restored about 10 days ago. Still, there’s been no response or update from your end.
I’ve attached all the relevant evidence again and really hope you can review my case soon. I believe this mark is unfair, and I’d like it removed from my profile if my proofs clear things up. I’ve always respected the platform and its integrity, so this situation has been tough to deal with.
Please look into this and let me know how we can resolve it. I’m eager to get this issue sorted out.
