Hello everyone.

CFToolkit now has brief statistics for recent rounds, including #331.

Unfortunately Codeforces API is raw also, so I'll have parse HTML to get more information. You can expect better stats in a week. Feel free to make suggestions. :)

P.S. Rating update notifier is working also.

Hello!

Many of us participate in ACM-like team contests. And many of these use Codeforces::Gym.

It's often hard to find a contest which is new to each team member. So I made a little tool which shows a list of contests that satisfy condition: for each team member there is no submission to a contest.

Hope it will be useful: http://cftoolkit.nic11.ru/gym_not_solved

Hello everyone!

For several years I participated in various sport programming competetions and I was always dreaming to create my own game. And I've made something: http://cftoolkit.nic11.ru/ . Well, this is not a game, but still a project that will be useful for me and you hopefully. :)

The only funtion it has right now is rating update notifications. And yes, it's ready to notify you about today's rating change.

Why am I writing this post now but not after the contest when everyone is nervously pressing F5 awaiting new digits in 'Rating' column? I want to test how it works. And the best way to test something is to invite testers. I hope that little VPS will survive Codeforces users' attack :)

If you want to help making it ready for today's contest, all you have ot do is head to http://cftoolkit.nic11.ru/rating_update_notifier , allow desktop notifications, wait a few hours and tell me if it worked correctly. In 2-3 hours after this post I will launch fake rating update notification. (UPD. Just launched. PM or reply if you didn't see notification or didn't hear the sound) (UPD2. Test notification button now shows the same notification as after rating update, including sound.)

What you should expect:

  1. You should hear this sound: http://cftoolkit.nic11.ru/static/sounds/notification.ogg (that's the best sound I could find)
  2. You should see desktop notification, which says that rating is updated. After the click you should be redirected to codeforces.com . It will tell 'Contest is not started' and that's OK.

Don't forget to mention your OS, its architecture and browser. Thanks for your help :)
