Lmao I do not understand why you are so hell bent upon making others practice. Get some practice yourself first.

    The thing is we have a friend group, we create mashups every day (except when there is an official round) and practice followed by discussion. We found this way a much better way of practicing.

    We invite others as well to participate and grow together!!

      Interesting. However, I would suggest that you perhaps make an online google form where you can keep updating the links to your latest mashups, and make one blog telling others about the mashup, the form, and inviting people to join in if they want. That way you won't need to post a new blog everytime you have a mashup. As these problems are rated for absolute beginners, I believe that most of codeforces simply finds it frustrating, for lack of a better word, to see blogs like this one just regularly just clutter their blog feed.

        As these problems are rated for absolute beginners,

        You are an absolute beginner. The majority of codeforces users are absolute beginners too (gray or green): https://mirror.codeforces.com/blog/entry/71260

        Just speak for yourself. A whooping one blog per day at most doesn't make anything more cluttered.

          You are an absolute beginner.

          I am. My definition of beginner is a little different though. I would call a specialist/expert a beginner, and a newbie/pupil a complete novice. Well, I guess I will have to participate in some contest to find that out.

          Just speak for yourself

          Yes, this I agree with. I only commented what I did on the basis of some discussion I had with my friends. Also, the community of course also shows what it thinks about things via comments or upvotes/downvotes.

          A whooping one blog per day at most doesn't make anything more cluttered.

          Let us speak for ourselves ;)

            I agree with him actually — if he could consolidate the blogs into one that would be so much better than looking through individual blogs for practice.

              Unless I'm mistaken, darkrai491's complaint is that he/she doesn't want to see mashup announcements in their "Recent actions" feed. Consolidating announcements into a single blog and editing this blog would still end up in darkrai491's feed.

    I think this type of mashups gives a real contest feel and practicing such contest will be highly beneficial in real contest. BTW you will get nothing by being toxic over here

      Oh, I am sorry if I came off as being toxic; that was not the intention. I just had a point to put forward and I put it. I think it is really great that you and your group of friends are actively doing something towards improving yourselves.

      please do not open if you can't take a little lighthearted roast
