byteplay_studios = Ban_Mindeveloped_Please.
This guy is a cheater. In his in last Div.3, his submission coding style for all problems are very different. It's likely that he is trying to escape the anticheat system with such tricks. To be specific, he create different coding styles by using different combinations of these criterion:
- Full English words / one letter variable names
- Excessive comments / no comments
- Template code / no template code
It's hard to believe a person could have so many different kind of coding styles and use them all in one Div.3 contest.
Moreover, in problem E, he tries to further escape by acting out a realistic debugging process. Specifically, he submits a wrong submission in problem E before submitting the correct one. If we compare the correct submission to the first one (which got wa on test 1), we can see that he changes almost all of his variable names and comments to a different one with similar meaning. He also secretly deleted some details like dp[k] == INF in the first submission so that he will get wrong answer. Anyone who done CP for some time will know that this isn't a valid way of debugging.
To see them yourself, here are his submission links: A B C D E (wa on test 1) E (ac) F G. The above points can easily be verified.
He cheated in his first account byteplay_studios for two times. After that, he cheats in his second account Ban_Mindeveloped_Please for once. This is the second time he cheats in this account, or the 4th time he cheats as a person. I believe Codeforces should release a strict punishment toward his actions.
If you are byteplay_studios = Ban_Mindeveloped_Please and you didn't cheat (which I claim is 100% false), please disprove all the evidence listed above in 1 comment and I will reconsider them. With only 1 point of evidence, it might seem like a coincidence, but so many evidence combined together, the probability of false positive can be seen as zero.
I totally support this.
I just don't know why the previous post was deleted.
So you were Lvl200GoldenDragon. Hmm... I see
I have explained that under the last blog, but it seemed that nobody trusted me.
hmm...
His/Her coding style tells you everything. Full support!
Btw how did you know he/she is Indian? I mean There isn't any information on his CF profile. Is it because of his/her name "Ban_Mindeveloped_Please"?
The "Indian" and the "alternate account" are implied from a previous post exposing his main. However, that post isn't available now.
Sad..
I think it's more likely that your blog got deleted due to swear words being used, maybe you should edit it out.
My Account on CF also got suspended last week because I made a blog about cheaters. I hadn't even used any vulgar word in my Blog.
Users ridhima0412, adityashivamsingh03 and spicy_apricot also cheated in the Division 3 contest.
Proof:
Look at their coding style and how similar their submissions for problem B are: 307711772 307733059 I understand that, on its own, this is not convincing — please keep reading.
adityashivamsingh03 is a terrible cheater. He naively submitted the solution for Problem D in Python first: 307742143 Got compilation error, translated it to C++ and resubmitted: 307744345
spicy_apricot made the same mistake, submitted problem F in Python first: 307808245 Got compilation error, translated it to Go and resubmitted: 307810994
All of them have previously received “Skipped” verdicts.
IceHydra and the other Div 3 organizers, I request that you review the standings. These are only a few examples — many participants cheated in this contest.
Darkman01 has cheated in yesterday's contest and secured 8th position, and he is flexing his rank here
I think you are a cheater ... Shut up mc
so you are an indian, Mindeveloped this guy is from india but he has put china in his profile, (mc means mf in hindi).
Darkman01 man just prove that you have not cheated in yesterday's contest. and please have some shame.
Brother don't waste your time on this thing.... I think you need to fix your English haha....
do not worry about my english, character is what matters most, and guess what, you need to fix that.
btw, your submission for problem D matches with 10 others who are in top 20 in official standings, do you have something to say on this? some people even have the same variables as yours for problem D, so, you can not even say
people can have same logicsShow me the solution with the same variable names ...
307700727 rank 2, everything is matching except for one variable.
307705401 rank 5
307702921 rank6, same code but different variable names.
307712238 rank 10, same code different variable names.
307709890 rank 11, same code different variable names.
307695401 rank 14, same code, different variable names.
307683414 rank 20, same code same variable names.
307720781 rank 19, same code same variable names, but has used an unwanted function.
you have cheated, accept it. and please, do not say, that, i code in java and they code in c++.
are you gonna accuse an IGM of cheating on a 1000 rated problem as well? he has the same code for D 307688286
no, look at his submissions Darkman01 could not even solve div4 B made 3 wrong submissions, and then he somehow managed to solve all of the problems from div3 within an hour.
furthermore, above code was being sold out here for 0.36 dollars during the contest, and surprisingly this guy's variables match with the leaked code.
yeah he definitely cheated, i am not defending him, i am just saying the problem D was very short and you can't really conclude anything off it
Cheaters will die!! Cheating might boost your rating, but it won’t boost your skills. In the end, you're only fooling yourself. Real growth comes from solving problems, not copying solutions.
