You may wonder: how is the guy who once said, “I have no problem doing a live verification,” and then deleted his blog doing now?
According to some of my friends, he qualified for the ECPC finals after solving 3 out of 4 problems in the qualifier (the first one was just a parity-checking problem). And then, in the ECPC finals, he solved only 1 out of 13 problems.
Despite that, he seems very proud of himself and keeps giving everyone advice. He is also trying to hide his identity by refusing to let the ECPC organizers take pictures of him, presumably because he would then be recognized as a Master who solved only the third problem during the frozen hour and failed to solve the fourth one.
He even told people on Codeforces to “wait and see” his performance in the ECPC. Well, now we have seen it.
Hope MikeMirzayanov takes a look at this soon.
Here before he fixes the failed tag
Jokes aside, it's genuinely stupid as fuck for a person to cheat and then confidently say that they have proof of honesty. Like I mean okay cheating already makes you below average on intellectual capability but at least most cheaters either remain silent and don't really fight that much (given they don't really care about programming cause of their cheating) or they admit they made a mistake. But if you cheat and say that you are on a high level without cheating, then if you end up lying, it just defames you even more than if you openly admitted.
When cheaters admit what they did, I tend to feel like they won't do it again. But those who throw a fake fight leave a really bad impression; it shows they lack the courage to admit the truth and will likely keep cheating.
how difficult was the fourth problem of the qualifier (estimate cf rating)? just curious as this supposed master couldnt solve
They weren't 4 problems, there were 4 easy problems, here is the contest: https://codeforces.me/group/Rilx5irOux/contest/710806
(Join the group first: https://codeforces.me/group/Rilx5irOux)
Most people solved B, D, G and J
based on the standings here: https://acpcsb.acpc.global/ECPCDAYFOUR2026/official_Helwan%20National%20University.html
they didn't solve D which is very basic sparse table + BS
Also he isn't the only one with high ratings to perform badly there, someone with higher rate did a lot worse
Yes, like batats, he only solved the first problem and didn't solve anything else.
Even the leader of the university is a cheater, what do you expect from the others?
Well, in my school, there's a guy who participated in a regional round of a competition got top 1 (top 12 got qualified for the natinal round btw) (Note that exam supervision during this round remains lax). However, in the national round, where he need to record his screen, he got top 34/36. Tho, not everyone in my school cheat. And, if I remember correctly, you know that guy pretty well?
PS: For those who don't know him, he's quite active on CF, being famous for exposing cheater
I also know that guy!
Of course, you are literally my classmate bruh :skull:
orz
The thing I want to say from this comment is, you can't say that everyone cheat because of an individual who cheated (just like how mambo says that Vietnameses are "trash" and we all cheat when kreukpg admitted that he cheated) (for those who wonder, CF deleted mambo's comment)
ts guys racism lives on :sob:
All your accusations and assumptions are wrong. He is my friend, and I treat him like my brother. We both go to the same college.I have seen him myself solving contests without any help from AI. Also, he is the president of the ICPC community in our college, and hence, I know his capabilities in competitive programming.As far as the photograph is concerned, he does not wish anybody to click any photographs of him. It is his personal wish. And everybody should respect it.
Drop the midoriya files then
If I visit Egypt, Ill stand and watch how he solves problems
bro when will you give me purdue tour :(, also yeah RELEASE THE FILES
when we both become LGM
so never? I probably gonna get master and stop for a while
We are both getting LGM next contest.
Are you midoriya's alt?
Why was your account registered only 2 weeks ago?
Wtf, what happened?
AbdelmagedNour do you have any thoughts on this?
you might as well tag $$$50\%$$$ of cf users at this point
I don't know what exactly is going on in here but I would like to point out that comparing one's performace in a high pressure contest with a codeforces contest is completely unreasonable and you cannot judge them base on their one contest's performance, there can be multiple factors involved in contests like environmental issues,health issues and many more. You never know what can happen next so judging them based on single contest is baseless. I hope you are my getting my point wrusb.
He solved 3 problems in a Div. 2 contest. Nobody can fumble that badly when accused of cheating. I mean yeah sure you might get stress and forget how to do F all of a sudden (which is D for div.1 level btw) but you cannot get stressed that much unless they're right.
Also he upsolves almost exclusively A and B problems.
I was talking about the ECPC performace that's why I mentioned "I am not sure of what really is going on"
ECPC finals' first few problems are quite easy even under stress, you'd expect him to at least solve three problems given that the first few are basically A or B problems.
Exactly
What do you think about me? Does my rating also look inflated to you ? ಠ_ಠ
EDIT: Apparently, no one likes Sercajom.
"He is also trying to hide his identity by refusing to let the ECPC organizers take pictures of him, presumably because he would then be recognized as a Master who solved only the third problem during the frozen hour and failed to solve the fourth one" Nah it was his teammate who refused to take the photo because she was ashamed of their performance.
