I just wanna point out the problem, that these two contests (codeforces round 325 and topcoder srm 670) will be at Saturday at the same time.

Looks like cf is doing a great favor to topcoder reducing a huge load(or vice versa)! Joking aside, let's look at some recent cf contest schedule here:
Sep/28/2015 — #322
Oct/03/2015 — #323
Oct/06/2015 — #324
Oct/10/2015 — #325
on average cf is holding 7.5 contests per month! isn't it a bit too much? average contest gaps should be 7 days in my view, which could attract more contestants :)
To sum up the above comment, I didn't support this collision and suggested to delay #325 to 1 or 2 days, which is similar to the enot110's post. But I can't understand why people are downvoting the comment and upvoting the blog post at the same time!
Your first comment sounds like "I want number of contests to be significantly decreased".
I don't see any connection between this and original "please resolve clash" topic, and also I don't see any reason why I should support this point of view — your main reason is "it will attract more contestants", and for me current number of contestants at CF rounds is sufficient :) Moreover, TopCoder holds contests less often — and still not a lot of people are participating there :)
Since I want to compete more, and there is someone trying to ask the authority to reduce my chance of competing
Please read the comment carefully! I am not asking to reduce the contests, I am suggesting about the average gaps between the contests. If they have 4 contests in a row they can schedule each one on each week. If they schedule all on a week you will have to wait long for the next contest.
And what's the difference between decreasing the number of contests and increasing the average gaps between the contests?
Probably that in one case, there won't be a big gap (or that big of a gap) afterwards.
I'm fine with any non-nearlyzero frequency of contests, as long as I have Internet connection when they're running.
How about changing the time for this contest? It was originally set on Sunday. Why would you want to have people missing out on either one of these contests?
Moreover, I think, Saturday evening is a time to relax, not for coding. Really, programmers are people too, aren't they?
Relaxing and participating are not mutually exclusive :)
Correct me if I am mistaken, but the contest has been moved to Monday.
Edit: Sorry, wrong time zone. :)
and for me also so we will compete together :D what about other contestants :D
Нафига вы перенесли CF 325 с Воскресенья на Понедельник, если TopCoder SRM 670 уже давно был запланирован на субботу и не переносился?????
Вот скажите, как теперь решать раунд в будний день в рабочее время?
Где логика? Контесты НЕ пересекались.
Немного категорично написано, да и понятно, что снова переносить никто не будет, но я таки плюсану. В воскресенье после опенкапа было гораздо лучше время.
Мне казалось, что изначальная дата была 10-ое, т.е. суббота
Раунд, который сейчас называется 325, основан на наборе задач некоторого соревнования для школьников, которое проводится утром в понедельник. Он привязан к времени этого соревнования и никак не может быть перенесен. Он был запланирован давно, но в расписании не присутствовал до вчерашнего дня.
Раунд, который сейчас называется 326, претерпел некоторое количество переносов. Он сначала назывался 325, был поставлен на воскресенье, потом мною был перенесен на субботу (так как с новым интерфейсом clist.by я не заметил перекрытия с SRM), после чего было принято решение подвинуть его на следующую неделю в четверг.
Вас я приглашаю поучаствовать в Codeforces Round #326 (Div. 1), если не можете участвовать в рабочее время.
