There is one problem..Why many do not reach Round 2 of CodeJam.
Many of my friends pass qualifications from 2-3 Google IDs as only 30 points were needed with no plag checking! So even if they pass Round 1A then still they will waste many seats in Round 1B and Round 1C as they will give contest with different IDs. My friends are not pupil or newbie but they are Expert and some are CM and they said they are reducing their competition too as fake IDS will be there in Round 2/3 and I was surprised when he said "Every pro person in Codejam has 2-3 Ids". Just think how many idiots will be doing this thing and many people who work hard are unable to get to Round 2.
I think your friends are only the one doing that. If they are really Expert and CM and want to do good in CJ they would focus on round instead of "reducing the competition".
I don't think the point made is futile, even if there won't be a lot of people "reducing the competition", I still think a bunch of people might just give multiple contests from different id's because of the thrill of competition.
I don't see the point here to make multiple alt accounts to participate and reduce the competition, there are two scenarios here if a indivdiual is making an alt account to participate in round 1 most he can do is taking up seats of participants that he can beat in a round, as he can perform better than them, so making an alt account will have no immediate impact for him in the round 2 as those who are stronger than him they will be eligible no matter what and those who are weak at this point, well there is no point in making alt account for them as he is stronger than them right now.
Sorry to break it to you, but your friends are not good enough as your so called "pro person" doesn't care about reducing the competition with few fake ids.
What is a "pro person" ? I don't think actual professionals of CP have several accounts.
What is "professionals of CP"? Not everyone is professional of CP so many can do this! And the fact is you guys are unable to digest this thing (me too when came to know bout this) but many people are using this and which is why Round 2 qualification is getting tougher and tougher (more tougher from next year after this blog post!)
You can not blame external factors (that are out of your control) for your failure.
Have you got any proof whatsoever that this is widely done?
Who is idiot that will say I do this thing? My friend with his peer had done this So i got to know!
See my first comment, it had earlier +30 upvotes.. so this also says people admittingly upvoted as they might have thought how I got to know about this thing but only 2-3 who didn't do this thing are commenting to my posts and downvoting.
But then obvio legendary coders won't do this but this thing is done by Expert- CM level people who are good in coding skills but still unsure bout clearing rounds
Again, have you got any proof whatsoever that this is widely done? Your friends may have done it but that means nothing. The rest of your comment is some random rambling about votes that doesn't answer my question at all.
Moreover, doing this thing seems pretty pointless. If you qualify to the next round with multiple accounts, all you do is prevent 2-3 people from qualifying. There is barely any benefit. On the other hand the risk is noticeable.
I can believe that your friends thought that this was a clever scheme and did it but if this was widely done, the benefit to everyone doing this must be considerable.
forgive me big brother.. you win..
I just pointed what may have been going in CodeJam in background. Just think if it would have been done by around 500 users only, what impact it may create!
Come on, speak English here.
I also knew many of my CM friends who have multiple accounts. Can't publicise but this person is right . At least I knew that this thing occurs in India due to not for the thrill of competition just due to their shitty insecurity at the back of the mind. I am also the included one in multiple account category but sadly I am not the pro :(
-is-this-fft- and every1 now I hope you believe what i said, this is a cheap tactic used by many i think and that is why I pointed out here! But guys just unable to digest!
This person himself uses this thing and many others also doing and he himself stated the reason is insecurity only!
The strategy that they are following is really stupid. They are only affecting the competitors which are at a lower level than them. This does not affect where they will end up in the rank list.
For eg: They won't be able to use this tactic on further rounds due to plagiarism checker. So they are basically doing this for no single positive outcome...
Every time I learn about something new in this world.
Practice more.
