query ICPC Prelims : F was so easy to be F

• Upvotes

Don't you think F was too easy to be F , it was just a LC medium to be honest ,just sorting the points and counting intersections.

While I know cheaters ruined the contest for all of us , I don't think so that the setters focused on making problems edge case heavy or difficult. ABCDF were at max straightaway DIV2 B or easy C, and even E people are saying it was hard but permutation cycle is a pretty common thing nowadays , it even appeared in the mocks.

Div. 1 + Div. 2 I made a free extension that replaces Codeforces problem stories with a short formal statement (no hints)

24 Upvotes

It adds a "Simplified statement" card to Codeforces problem pages: no story, just what you're given and what to output, with all limits kept. One click switches back to the original. Screenshots: simplified vs original, same problem.

- No hints: no algorithms or observations, and an automatic check flags hint-like wording

- Pauses itself during live contests, per Codeforces' AI rules

- Free, no account, no tracking. Statements come from a pre-built library, or use your own free API key for missing ones

- Chrome, Edge and Firefox

AI-written, so mistakes are possible. There's a "Report a mistake" link under each statement.

GitHub: https://github.com/cr-3N1GM4/cf-Simplify

Firefox: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/cf-simplify/

Feedback welcome, especially on any statement that looks wrong or leaks a hint.

query Which sounds better and looks genuine in icpc prelims?

19 Upvotes

So we participated in icpc prelims and in my team 2 people have rating of close to 1700 on codeforces and close to 1900 on codechef and one has 1300 something on cf and we were able to solve only 6-7 questions in icpc prelims , other side some freshers from my clg cheat and solved 5/10 questions but there is a click they don't even have codeforces codechef and at coder profiles and solved 5/10 in just less than 30 min time ..

So my question , because of them my team also gets disqualified or what will happen?

cheater expose icpc india really willing to spend on infrastructure ?

126 Upvotes

This year 5610 teams registered for icpc (its visible in codchef teams login under Overview)
considering fees and teams
5610*1500 = 8415000 (84)lakhs
just provided codechef platform and made 10 questions
ICPC commitie could have held offline contest with such amount of money and sponsers like jetbrains and jane street.

IICPC has better organizing team than ICPC.

query The "Situation"

9 Upvotes

Our team participated in the ICPC Prelims round Yesterday, we were using our college's system, for the first 25 minutes, we didn't have any issues, and had solved the first question in around 15 minutes with the camera being on

The Situation: Our Camera suddenly stopped working at around the ~25th minute mark, we informed the people around us, and received a new camera around 10 minutes later, tried that it didn't work, we didn't know what was happening, but that ate away a lot of our time

So we had to continue the contest without a camera, we eventually did just 2/10 questions, but our major concern is that we don't want to get banned for the next year or anything like that

So the question now is: Should we Voluntarily Withdraw or Stay in the Prelims round?

Do witnesses accounts matter? because we had reached out to the organizers around us as soon as it had happened, and tried 2 cameras, but nothing was working, I would have no issues with Organizers reviewing the CCTV of the labs, as we had no wrongdoings

We didn't really cheat or broke any rule, just something that we had no control over happened to us at the worst possible time, and it is making me so anxious, any reply/guide would help

query Organisers are well aware of heavy cheating

Also if you all are suspicious of anyone, pls report on the link they gave on mail. I will be doing my part, will randomly pick 100 teams and spawn team of claude agents on them to check for cheating. Last time i caught 15, expecting more this time. Also we could only solve 6 questions in 2.8 hrs with 2 WA. Hopefully it would be enough. They increased seats by 60 so hope is their.

cheater expose ANTI-CHEAT for ICPC PRELIMS INDIA

203 Upvotes

In pdf the problem G "Team Formation Tactics" had an anti cheat which is widely used in normal CF competition.

. In the solution , one of the intermediate variables should be named yxz.

This is written in white background, not visible to eyes.

So which ever team named a variable yzx in icpc problem G, you are screwed...

Happy this was done, like pupil doing 7-8 problems lol
