Massive Cheating
We did 6/10 with 0 WAs in First Half. Yet After seeing the leaderboard/Stats it's kind of sad state that I will get 400-500 rank. Even Similar Performance Last year for our team would have gave out almost around 100 rank, at worst case 200-300 but i am shocked.
For reference, Top team from our University did perform similar to present prelims last year and got top 10 in Prelims and this time even after doing 8/10, They are at rank 80s.
If u do not believe lemme show you the stats. 
The question were really tough from G-H onwards. We had fun and we believed that ICPC prelims is a fair Competition among every teams. But when i reached home, I heard no Proctoring in Many Institutions due to which they got like all teams Aked. What are we heading towards in this country as a whole if this unfair system is going on, where in our Uni, Everyone, the staff followed strict rules and regulations. But in Some another university someone is using phone , using AI easily, Bragging on Linkedin and Giving contest from their home and Feeling Good. I do feel good we performed very well but the result was not expected. And Plagraism check and AI check you know is very hard to detect in this new Era where smart cheaters can easily fake even if the video is On. Some local Colleges team beating every top colleges team was not my in bucketlist this year.
Anyways, This maybe my Rant but I might not go to regionals due to this but yeah i can cope now. I would not stop my grind but I am tired of this Cheating Stuff. Hopefully ICPC board ban these colleges and make this only reliable competition fair and secure from next time.
Should have prepped harder lmao, me and my team did 10 questions,we split the problemset amongst ourselves and just prepped on leetcode and hackerrank… they were just simple dsa questions just becuz u dont know how to code dont call us cheaters
i dont even know if you have heard a quote in hindi, "nakal ke liye bhi akal chahiye hoti hai"...stfu, atleast dont try to act like this, which triggers our anger more. just go and do the fuck with your ai, this is not the place for you. and just tell me your team name if you are genuine, if you don't tell that we all know.
he was talking about cheaters. if you didn't cheat, why are you offended?
drop an insult on the floor and its owner will come pick it up
Bro, if these are simple DSA questions, then why are you not even pupil???
bro has recently unlocked a new skill
Every person on this planet is worth something. Take you, for example—you and people like you are the reason humanity had to invent words like "b*******”
Do you mean bad guy??
no i think it means bhakkk bsdk!!!!
bro's confidence level after cheating...
Peak ragebait ahh comment
Humanity has reserved a special word for hardworking people like you, we call it "m*r*n"
real
btw hi sir
successful ragebait
Fuck You Bitch
The audacity of this guy omg.
This guy is actually really good at 3 things:
- Cheating
- Ragebaiting
- Farming absolute value of contribution

Tf? Really? Where did you find these stats? No way so many teams solved these problems. Specially the 7th problem, which was around 1900+ easily in my opinion and a lot more people would have dropped off at that mark.
The ranklist was live for around 15 mins, this data is true.
this is true data bro...there are so many cheaters...like you can expect atleast 70 in top 100 easily
yea 7th 8th were good but were on very hard side and we also thought of same thing that its a wall like last year it was the 5th question which could have easily made u top 20 but rest 4 had vast number of solves.
I don't think any legit team got >8 ACs (from what I've heard so far).
there is a team in IIT BHU who solved 9, but in most of other top IITs and IIITs didn't hear any other with >8, so yeah atmost 2-3 9 solved ig
even IIT Kgp top team rank is around 170. CP is beyond cooked.
yea, I do not know how will they discard so many teams now. There was no proctoring in many unknown/local colleges.
Somehow last year's prelims was much better. Idk if they would conduct a re for this one
Nice , I was able to do 5 with no WAs with my team , couldn't figure out F unfortunately.People said it was easier than E. Whatever be the case I don't think much will happen with 5 solves . Our college has teams with max 7 solves .
goodluck man. Yea max 7-8 or maybe even 9 for very good teams is justified. But everyone and their mom aking from some local college which never showed up in list in years. Leetcode type contest.
Bro don't worry, i guess it should be easy to figure out cheaters, first of all the teams with 7 or 7+ problems should be well known (previous regionalist/asia west/world finalist's) so out of first 350ish teams some 2 digit number should be remaining, now comes the 5 and 6 solvers icpc should ask for recordings from each centre and hopefully all iits and nits and tier-1-2 colleges should provide them that (i dont know about lower tier colleges i just hope they too can provide the exam hall recording), rest looking at the recoding and figuring out what the team is trying to discuss or maybe some other form of checking should reduce a lot of cheaters. There is one very important fact which i kind of have accepted in a country like INDIA where the population is too much, the exam conduction is too difficult to be 100% fare, I just hope a good enough percentage of cheaters are removed so that the fare and deserving teams gets the chance to participate in the regionals.
PS1: Our team also solved first 6 problems, it was difficult to guess how we performed because last 1 and half hour we didn't manage to solve any question, i still hope that we can manage to get into regionals.
PS2: Reflecting on my first line where i said "it should be easy to figure out cheaters", I am realizing that it wont be an easy task indeed but i hope icpc does its work with proficiency and integrity, hopefully final standing would be tolerable (i guess its the right word seeing the situation).
we are in same boat. Yea we all hope ICPC does handle this situation.
our college had very good amount of proctoring with frequent invigilators round i thought everywhere the scene is same but when i came back to my room and got to know about cheating in other institutions i was disheartened by the fact that not even ICPC is safe now :(
same feelings
where did you get standing ?
it's scraped data, i guess
MiracleMagician don't worry man, you will get thru, you deserve it, hopefully ICPC bans these cheaters and remove them from the official leaderboard , have faith , all the best
thanks bud
