virtual contest?
By mdtareque, history, 3 years ago, In English

We can virtually give a contest, to solve the problems in contest-kind of environment. I see some advantages of it.

But, we don't get a expected rating after the virtual contest ends.

Any way to see what would have been the expected rating change after giving a virtual contest?

Epic website: https://codeforces-anytime.firebaseapp.com/ . It often made me feel better about myself

    Do you know who is the creator of this website as I would like to personally thank him for this? Also, I have a question about it: Does it take only actual participants and your virtual participation to calculate your rank? or take into consideration everyone's virtual participation as well?

    The second case is the reason because I was an idiot. Thanks for the explaination.

      First of all, user MiuraMiuMiu (no fancy colors because either i tag them or i use nice css and i don't want either).

      Second of all, it is worth to note that in virtual contests, CodeForces does a plag check (I think..?) with the submissions sent by the virtual participant. The participant is then sent to practice and disconsidered in the case that the bot concludes they have cheated. So the rest of the details are to be questioned to the creator. *always finish the duology
