Hi Mike,

I hope you're doing well. I wanted to share a little challenge I faced during today's contest on Codeforces. Because of Ramadan, I usually have trouble joining at the regular time since it clashes with Iftar. Today, I stayed up waiting to join, but unfortunately, I found out later that the round had been postponed.

I was wondering if it might be possible to start the contests one hour earlier during Ramadan. I think this small change could make a big difference for many of us who are fasting, without causing too much disruption.

Thanks a lot for considering this suggestion.
