Hope to see you participating. Good Luck!
Upd — Due to some unforeseen circumstances, we have to postpone the contest to Thursday, 26th May from 8:00 PM to 11:00 PM IST. Really sorry for the inconvenience caused.
Upd 2 — It has been noticed that some problems were accessible for a very short amount of time and have been viewed by a few people. We believe that holding an rated contest with the same problem set will be unfair and hence, we have decided to make tomorrow's contest unrated.
The banner for this contest mentions top 100 Asia-Pacific students getting free Linkedin Premium. The top 100 students from which division?
Bad Gateway Error!!
ohh good to know I wasn't alone trying constantly to open codechef in vain....
Ahh, good old days
Vintage Codechef is back!
502 Bad Gateway Error :(
down..?
Yup...As Usual...xD!
bhai , 3 saal ke bad de raha hu cc pe..tabhi hag raha tha
Codechef at its best
502 Bad Gateway!!! Will it be rated?
can we have codeforces contest at 8 pm IST now?
Spoiled mood BC
Probably giving away free LinkedIn premium subscription caused a lot of traffic!
Not opening server down.
Now, I am just waiting more for Codeforces Round #794 to start than Starters 40 !!
for codechef contests are temporary but internal error is permanent
502 Bad Gateway!!
Looks like a lot of people want Linkedin Premium Subscription. :)
Looks like Nobody going to have it :(
Let's solve acmp.ru!
Still 502 Bad gateway
cheaters got cheated by codechef.
Relax guys, it's just CC being CC.
Starters didn't start
Deja vu
vat-69
Now...Look at the camera and wave your laptops. You've been pranked..XD!
Anyone got successful submission?
you people are giving submissions?
for me the site is still down i have refreshed it for the millionth time
It's such a time waste. We have codeforces contest delayed for this contest and now we can't even participate in this one properly.
is the site working properly now?
I guess all the traffic is getting shifted from CC to CF now (specifically on this thread) xD
I THINK the contest should now be postponed.
Many have already seen some problem statements.
Sorry about the issue. We've still not been able to fix it fully. So we'll postpone the contest to tomorrow, same time.
Update: Since some of the users had been able to see the problems at the beginning, tomorrow's contest will be unrated.
lol is it even possible to bring forward the codeforces 794 with this news
I was able to load the statements of two problems (and solve them), what are you going to do about it?
I have seen 3 ^.^
Some people have seen some problems during the start. I also read one problem. It'd be unfair if the same problems are reused for tomorrow.
It should be unrated or postponed now :|
It has been postponed to tomorrow :)
Ok, it is postponed to tomorrow.
In my brwoser, it's still showing 15 mins. Maybe CC has decided to give me 1 day to upsolve based on my performance..XD!!
Me to Codechef -
Codechef : Bakchodi
Site crashing during contest time -> contest being postponed to tomorrow -> contest will be unrated..Anyone wanting to learn how to disappoint people can take courses from the CC team it seems..
I might sound rude but I think they can improve easily with all the sponsorships they do and a huge company backing them up. But they just don't because it working and they want to focus on more money-making stuff like mentors, certificates, courses, etc.
So now that it's "unrated for all", are the LinkedIn prizes still available or what?
update: Seems removed now as well. It's in the announcement for the next Starters round in June.
.
The contest will start at 20:30 IST instead of at 20:00.
:(
why not postpone it to next year?
