ItsAvy's blog

Hey everyone, I was wondering if some experienced Codeforces users could take a look at the profile of jaaduger251.

I believe this user may be from my college, based on the information mentioned on their profile. I've noticed that they've been performing extremely well in contests recently, which caught my attention because I don't personally know many people from my college who participate seriously in competitive programming.

I'm not a strong enough competitive programmer myself to determine whether their performance is genuinely exceptional or whether there might be something suspicious going on.

I'm not claiming that the user is cheating. I'd just appreciate it if some experienced users could look at their recent contest history and, if possible, explain whether there are any actual red flags or whether this is simply the case of someone being much better at CP than I expected.

If there are legitimate concerns, perhaps the appropriate people at Codeforces could look into it. Otherwise, I'm happy to accept that they're simply very good at competitive programming.

Thanks!

The blog: IDK is he cheating or not
It's tag: cheater during contest, cheating

Jokes aside, he got fully skipped in round 1116, his submissions in round 1115 contain long names (for example, is_ancestor). Also, in round 1117 and his submission for problem E in round 1115 contain various comments. He clearly is not greateric so I'm quite sure he cheated.
