Google Kickstart and Codeforces Round #676 are clashing. MikeMirzayanov, flaviu2001, please shift the time of the contest by few minutes and that would be alright.

UPD: Thank you for updating the time!!!

I don't suppose shifting contest by few minutes will help. As google kickstart round G is of 3 hours. And it is overlapping for last 25 minutes with codeforces 676 round. Even if codeforces round is delayed by 1 hour, it will be very difficult to take part in it because 30 minutes gap is not enough. I think it should be delayed by 1 day.

    As one of the co-authors, it would be quite hard for us to host the round in a non-weekend day.

    Also there are plenty of contests every day, by your logic we should delay them all and it simply doesn't make sense.

      I am only suggesting to avoid the clash. And Kickstart takes place only once a month and people from many countries participate in it, if the number of participants would have been less then I would never have posted this.

      I know it may not be easy but I request you to do whatever possible.

      Isn't it possible to schedule the round on same day @8AM GMT? Or something around the same time as of Educational Codeforces Round 96 (Rated for Div. 2).

      PS:- Avoiding clash would be great as it would ensure more number of participants and a great competition.

    I don't know why I am been downvoted. I just presented by point of view that after every coding contest there is mental fatigue. It is not possible to give 2 contests back to back for 5 hours. Even if timings are delayed by 30 mins then also people won't be able to give 100% to codeforces contest, as their brain didn't got time to get recover from mental fatigue after participating in Google Kickstart.

    Even few may give priority to Codechef Cook off which is 1 hour after google kickstart ends. As 1 hour is enough for participants to get refresh.

Shifting the round by half an hour should do the job, what's the problem in it?

Thanks for noticing that, we will be delaying the round one hour.
