Codeforces: Calendar
By fcspartakm, 7 years ago, translation, In English

Hello, Codeforces!

The latest innovation in Codeforces is introduction Google calendar with information about the upcoming contests. To view calendar you can visit tab "Calendar" in the top menu.

The Codeforces contests are adding in calendar automatically. Also you can add contests from the other programming platforms. Each red user has this option. In addition, we will grant the rights to edit the calendar to employees/enthusiasts of other popular platforms.

In the tab "Add" you can add information about upcoming contest. The form shown below will help you for this.

Please, add to the calendar classic algorithmic contests which duration does not exceed a day. Also the contest must be publicly available, i. e. had English statements and open for a wide range of participants. We ask you to use short names for competitions, as it is presented in the examples, for convenience and uniformity.

Also you can edit or remove information about upcoming events in corresponding tabs.

We hope that the calendar will be useful for you and will help to planning your time and learn about all upcoming programming events.

In our plans to expand the functionality of the calendar. Write about your ideas for improving it in the comments.

    We show events in the timezone of your browser (system). Maybe it is good idea to allow to choose it there and show your timezone explicitly.

The time for the CS Academy round 39 today seems to be wrong in my time zone(Indian Standard Time). It says 9:30 pm on the calendar but it is actually at 8:30 pm.

It's really a great innovation. I always think of it after the competition is over, it might help me a big favor, thanks!

Can you add the feature of "bulk adding" the whole list to Google Calendar app instead of just adding a reminder one by one, that would be a great favour!

      I see that now when I opened my pc, but on Google's Android Calendar app it say that it couldn't be added so I asked for it.

It's a trifling matter, but the official and widely used (in Japan) acronyms of "AtCoder Beginner/Regular/Grand Contest" are ABC, ARC and AGC respectively, so I couldn't understand what "AC BC" and "AC RC" means at first. Why don't you write like "AC ABC" (but AC and A dups here)? "AC BC" seems better for foreigners?

    AtCoder widely uses AGC etc so they are more common for me as well, never abbreviated it in other way, good point.
