Is Codeforces running low on budget?
By notAboAlmanalAnyMore, history, 8 years ago, In English

Last 2 rounds were mirrors (they didn't pay the problem setters). Div.1 rounds have become much less frequent, and so have become Div.2 rounds. I have a friend who had had his round on queue for over 1 year (which means they have a very large number of queued rounds), and still there are no upcoming Codeforces rounds on contests page! Why is that Codeforces? .

No, the budget is not the reason. It's just me taking some rest last days (summer time, you know), things will get back to normal soon, don't worry. August will feature three regular div. 1 contests and three regular div. 2 as usual.

    Hi gleb, thanx for such a cool and awesome reply.. However, what got so many people worried is no date for the next rated round being on the contest leaderboard. It gives everybody something to look forward to and keeps everybody engaged... For example, I lost my expert status in the previous round and all I'm waiting for is a date.. Thanx

    Hopefully some of the rounds will not crash with IOI O_O

Over 1 year! This is scary for those who want to prepare an official round i guess!

    For me I've sent my proposal 6 months ago and finally got a reply 2 weeks ago. Not sure if one of the upcoming rounds is going to be it though. The queue is very long I guess.
