_Randooom_'s blog

Hi codeforces

My last blog was downvoted even though it was very informative, so I am here for a rematch. Let's start
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
As you know right now, CodeTON round 9 is going on, obviously there would be cheaters. So I did what most of people desire to do.
I got inside one of this groups and promised solutions for free, honestly I was shocked by 30 people writing me per minute. I told them that they could have the solution only if they show me their submissions page, so I could "see myself". Not all believed, not all leaked their accounts, but there were a lot of stupid ones who just gave themselves out: Ahmed05, SerajOmar, guptashivansh374, zihad535, itrajeevranjan, parishmitabanik2005, Sarthak_Sach, banikparishmita, parishmitabanik616, Aries_Casper_175, NateHiggers69, sabbirahmedfahim, MJbhai, gimedo8149, megatronn.

I took the investigation deeper:

There was this channel he was very smooth, he didn't even show his top edge once in this contest, but I found a video in which he reveals one of his accounts Coder_Sabbir, I though that was it but after seeing another video I saw that now his account is Coder_Area, now I got it all he has more than one account, so , [user:megatronn]I wanted to find most of his accounts but I gave up after 5th one. Cheaters like him are rotten to their core and nothing can change them.
But lets get back to telegram cheaters. Today I meat one of the ( if not the ) politest cheater ever Sarthak_Sach: I did make fun of him

but he didn't even get angry, then this happens:

hahahaha, I guess bro really tried hard not to cheat.

Ofcourse creating new accounts is easy, but achieving everything again is not, that is why I want them banned, even though they can create a new account, they will be forces to start from the very begining.

If you want I can leak the group and every cheater telegram, so we could take them down, but there always would be other ones

MikeMirzayanov, KAN, and the contest authors: YouKn0wWho and wuhudsm it would be nice if you take action.

man is so cool, but i can't understand one thing.

HOW THEY FIND THIS KIND OF CHATS?????????? I even found out about the official channel of CF 2 weeks ago

time they spent searching for chats could have been spent training to write the same tasks themselves))))))))))))))))))))))

I was never part of such telegram channels, a friend gave me your contact, maybe from one such group idk. It was wrong of me to ask for hints, I totally agree and will never do such a thing again, but singling me out like that is not good.

And since I did not take code or hints from anyone after that(and I have every line of code as proof that it was my original work), I hope I am not punished for a crime I never committed

            I've noticed that younger adult Indians either look like they're $$$27+$$$ or $$$<15$$$. There are few in between. It is really quite interesting.

        nah, don't worry about your php, it's normal to look anything, just don't cheat, that's all.

          Ya, will never even open another tab again during the contest. This whole drama certainly taught me something.

    @eternal_happiness @dp_man according to the official blog of codeforces on use of AI(that you can find here https://codeforces.net/blog/entry/133941), I have not violated any policy if I am using AI to reformat my code as I was using an online compiler that did not have extensions enabled that format it. The whole code has been written by me from starting function to the algorithmic logic in main function as you'll see no other code like mine if you use any plagiarism tool.

    I am confident because I spent hours writing that code and I swear I am not lying if I say I never cheat and am being wrongly accused here.

      if its your code the why would you want to reformat it + the blog says only minor code changes.

        As I said before, I was using an online compiler that did not have extensions like prettier enabled, so I was using AI to reformat the code.

        Everyone can continue arguing and bullying me over something that I have not done and its okay because I have broken a rule by asking for hints which deserves all of this shaming(if I was in your position I would have done the same thing), but I know that any plagiarism tool will be able to check the authenticity of my code and not even a single person will be out there with whom my code will match because its my original code.

        That's all I have to say.

          at least, you have fed the statement to GPT, don't you? :smile:
          also, your code is a (nearly) secret between you and the compiler during the contest, the most important thing is if YOU can understand this. soo... you want to be hacked? or you are sharing code to others which is worse?
          and if this can be explained by something, then why you have submitted a code that was trivially wrong(with a time complexity of at least square)? Idk what's your purpose, but I know it's very sus.

Nononononono don't do that please wtf

There's no way you can "take a telegram group down", all what they have to do in the worst case is kick you all, but then you are helping them advertise

You got no proof, and even if you do then explain this, how do you think this photo got in my possesion, if it was really your friend, then make her confess

For all the cheaters who were mentioned in this blog, I am not making accusations, every sentence is backed up with a proof.

    I wouldn't say that I wasted my time, it was fun doing so. I loved it, and I would continue doing what I love. It not about the impact but about what I felt after doing so.

I didn't attempt a single problem in the CodeTON Round 9, yet you're saying I shared a screenshot of my submission. Exposing cheaters or harassing members who didn’t even participate in the contest?
