    It's over for cheaters. This is the strongest version of the plag checker.

      Did they change the algorithm? I was away for some time.

        i dont know, but it seems much more stricter than before as it caught this huge number

          I don't think the algorithm has changed, it's just that most of the cheaters have solved 6 problems and those 131 pages don't have unique entries for cheaters, but a unique entry for each problem they solved.

          But I am really happy if it improved!

      Hey how are you checking the new positions? Can You check mine too?

No chance for cheaters anymore they are destroyed.

Great work codeforces system.

Certain cheaters managed to escape on problem D. Just by solution sorting I was able to easily find a few near-identical codes shiv_prime94 rXqwq omkar_bhandare_13 Art11 Fieldchaser1 MrEagleRider All of them have some form of the code int blackcount = 0; while(!visited[var]) visited = true; pushing back, and then incrementing blackcount. I don't think it's a coincidence as I also saw this code on a cheater's Youtube (codeology or something?). Also, everyone on that list has at least 1 skipped contest. MikeMirzayanov please take action against these uncaught cheaters!!

    if they reveal publicly, don't you think people will change their code accordingly to survive plag check

I would like to add a few names on this list.

Maliiketh,snhr1707,arthur_singh,ChinmayP07,TrungCan,These are the people who are really suspicious,they have one skipped contest each before,if you see the progress graph of these people you will notice this is not possible for any beginner.MikeMirzayanov please look into this.

826 --> 764 (about 60 cheaters in the top 800)

I think it's normal for the number of cheaters to be that high in the last div 3, not sure if the plag checker was improved or not (but I hope it was), but most problems were solvable by GPT so it was much easier to cheat

Is the current contest just skipping the contests for the cheaters or is it also banning them? Or a combination of both?

Maybe this was the reason we didnt have much constests . anyone think so ?
