Just Reporting Some Cheaters
By To_catch_a_cheater, history, 2 years ago, In English

I am writing this to just report some cheaters I found in the latest round (#804). aman_cod, bored_kid, amber_100, 1_2_3_4_5_9 are the ones that have cheated.

Have a look at the submissions of problem E from the contest Please look at the code in main void and compare as they have obscured their code to avoid plagiarism detection.

First one to submit : 162806135 Then the second guy submits it in python : 162804059 Then these two submitted the first code as it is but with alot of unnecessary code : 162802356, 162804537

To confirm you could also match their other submission from the contest and will find the similar pattern described above and all four of them solved the 4 questions i.e., [A,B,C,E].

Please MikeMirzayanov and geranazavr555 look into it and ban these guys.

I wrote this as these are not some low level cheater, all 4 of them are ranked in top 50 in the previous contest which hurts a lot of people's rank. So, they need to be banned.

Hey bro you have said I submitted it second but I submitted it even before the first guy. I have not obsfrucrated a single line in my code. I don't know how their code has similarity with me but it must be a coincidence and I have not cheated for sure.

Yeah exactly, 1_2_3_4_5_9 is a mass cheater that has two another alt accounts which are 14_15_16, 10_11_12

Also one person told me in dm that these people sell solutions during contests with high price, they're such a ..... people that have to banned from this community!

Along with banning cheaters, also add a cheater tag on their profile and don't allow them to change their profile info or delete account. This way they will get a lifetime cheater tag.

    Never banned them, this will only lead to new account poping up every day. Just give them lifetime cheater batch. And take all rights to change their social info in any way. This is better than banning them i guess.

      Yes I agree with u.

      Also, I think Codeforces can develop an anti-cheating system. It just need to delete useless codes (like comments) and compare the codes to judge if the code should be skipped.

      Many other coding and contesting websites have this system and I think Codeforces can develop one too.

      If there is something wrong with my comment, plz, point it out for ne, thx.

As everybody can see They all solved ABCE. These stupid idiots sell solutions on Telegram and they think they are smart. here I am attaching ss where you can see ABCE gang leader boasting of having solved ABCE. I urge everybody to respect new CM(cheater) 1_2_3_4_5_9. He has completely revolutionized the way of coding(cheating). He has invented a new trick for fooling cf anti-plague test. I would ask fellow coders to nominate him. for nobel prize of coding(cheating). I am sure he will take cp community to a new level. Good luck 1_2_3_4_5_9 I hope you will code(cheat) hard and become a grandmaster.

This guy did some serious preparation for this post. Reaching CM level by cheating is something very bad. I have seen a lot of people struggling to reach even pupil, yet they rely on their hardwork. These cheaters should really get banned for doing this type of thing.

Why are these cheaters still have their as accepted?

MikeMirzayanov why aren't you doing the plag check and at least skipping these cheaters?

it's 3 days now, skip their solutions or ban them. Becoming a CM by cheating and solving problems is unacceptable and unfair to those who solve on their own.

MikeMirzayanov skip their solutions and ban them.

It is incredibly shameful that despite reporting MikeMirzayanov about the cheater gang in the last contest and the following submissions with obvious Obfuscated Code wrt to the first submission and the subsequent submissions by these cheaters who changed the code to python to submit python submission. Until now, none of their solutions has been skipped; in fact, their ratings have increased. Great job MikeMirzayanov in harbouring cheaters on the platform. It won't be long before we see cheaters in yellow or even red.

This guy has again cheated by submitting 5 solutions in 2 minutes, and it's visible that he knows nothing. MikeMirzayanov please look into it and ban him.

currently I don't have time but when I become high rated , I will make a blog which will be a list of people who cheated atleast once in codeforces , and that list will be updated day by day through people's comments exposing potential cheaters and I will look whether they are actual cheaters and if found evidence I will update the list putting their names
