Taking Advantage From the Virtual Contest Feature
Автор jaey, 13 лет назад, По-английски

Hi everybody, here I'm trying to make some suggestions to be useful for people here in CODEFORCES.
With the new feature Virtual Contest  I think we have solved a problem with the contest time, and the problem is that sometimes the contest time is not suitable for people who live in the other side of the world (I expect not to be the only one with this problem), but now I think the problem is solved!!, because we can organize a re-play of the new contest in the same date of the original one but involving all those people who couldn't be there at that time, maybe because of he was sleeping  at that time, or maybe at school, or any other reason. I would love being the organizer but unfortunately now I don't have frequent acces to the internet, so I encourage all people who is agree with this to make it reality, an idea that comes to my mind is create a new thread  called maybe CodeForces Beta Round #X Replay, or something like that...
Suggestions are welcomed.. .

Making Things Standard in CodeForces
Автор jaey, 14 лет назад, По-английски
Hello everybody, this is my first post and I would like to share some fellings with all of you.
First of all, and as always, thanks to Mike Mirzayanov, for this great site. I expect this post will be useful in some way.

  • I think the next situation is common in CodeForces: You are looking for what is new at the Recent action's left bar and you find a useful post, like a problem discussion, tutorials, etc. Then, a week later (maybe sooner) you try to find it again and is quite difficult, of course you can save the link to that post, but I think that is not the point, and this is the first suggestion here: all the tutorials or discussions can have in common a tag, it can be editorial of tutorial, this way we can make useful the search bar. And this can be in general: we can agree in some tags for especifics post, and in this way to have more organized the things here.

  • About the contests: It was suggested some time ago, but I repeat it here: I think it is good to have the problems in pdf version, in this way, if you are training and you don't have internet connection you don't have to worry. This things should be applied to all contest, to have uniformity here.

  • Making tutorials is a hard task (I think) and I appreciate all people who take a bit of his time (maybe more) to share knowledge with all others. And it would be nice if all tutorials have the same format, for example, Alex_KPR did a wonderful tutorial here, and if he would like to share his template it would be awesome.

  • The idea of the chat was a good one. It would be nice if we can have it again.

It is all for the moment, any suggestion or idea to make this site better will be welcome. The ideas here exposed encourage all of us to make a little effort and what we gain is a better organization here.
