Hello ((user:OtterZ)) and Codeforces Team.

I want to clarify that my submission 367670051 for Codeforces Round 1087 (Div. 2), Problem D — Ghostfires (2209D), was written independently by me. I did not communicate with any participant, and I did not copy code from any user.

The warning mentions a similarity with submission 367635666. I want to state clearly that I did not exchange code with that user or with anyone else.

During the contest, the only external tool I used was OnlineGDB to run and test my code. I did not click the Share button, I did not generate a public link, and I did not intentionally publish my code anywhere. Nor used any code sharing platforms to use others code as my own.

I am posting this only to state the facts of how I worked during the contest. If needed, I can provide more details about my workflow.

P.S: I hope this is the correct place to post this clarification, since the warning message did not specify an exact location.
