Hello

Two days ago, I noticed that contest I uploaded to the CF Gym had disappeared. On investigating more, it appeared that the name of the contest had been changed, and it had been made private (visible only to me).

I found that the contest.xml in the ftp was also edited. Is this a bug? Or do people maliciously edit other people's contests? If the latter, how do I keep it from happening again?
