Hello MikeMirzayanov and Codeforces Community,

I’m writing this post on behalf of my friend, whose Codeforces account was unfairly banned due to alleged solution similarity. After carefully reviewing the claims, we strongly believe that the ban was a mistake, and we kindly request a manual review of the situation.

Here are the account details: • Username: Remotely

• Original Email: [email protected]

The Issue: - His solutions were written independently and were not copied from any source. - The system flagged his submissions as similar to a large number of accounts, including many suspicious or ghost accounts. - After checking the available submissions, his code does not fully match the others, meaning the detection system might have produced a false positive. - This ban has severely impacted him, as he has always competed fairly and values the platform. Our Request: We kindly ask Codeforces admins to manually review his case. If necessary, he is ready to provide detailed explanations of his logic and approach to prove that his solution was original.

He deeply respects the Codeforces community and has never engaged in dishonest behavior. Please reconsider the ban so he can continue participating fairly.

If anyone else has faced a similar issue, please share your experience or any advice on how to proceed.

Best regards, [Remotely]

Thank you!
