Hello,

Today in round 546 div2 I solved problem D. But after the round i found out that my solution 51188835 was skipped. And in this blog https://codeforces.com/blog/entry/65873 accused me of cheating. I think this is unfair because i didn't cheat and it's normal in a problem like this to many codes are similar the code is 40~50 lines of code so if we have the same idea the codes will be similar plus this is my style in writing you can check all my codes.

After My solution was skipped i checked some of the solutions in the round and i found that many submissions were similar beacuse we all got the same idea. please help review my code again MikeMirzayanov KAN 300iq

I had a similar issue today in div2 round #782 solving problem A submitting it in around 53 minutes. I didn't cheat and got a skipped verdict. I think this is unfair, today's problem A is even less than 20 lines of code though it's an elegant constructive algorithm idea. I wanna point out that similar ideas may imply codes that are somehow having nearly same implementation especially this problem doesn't need anything beyond an idea and a short code. That plagiarism checker should be smarter. I hope such incidents don't occur in the upcoming rounds and I won't be within that zone of false positives again. I request an appeal from Codeforces Lord Mr.MikeMirzayanov reviewing this verdict. SUBMISSION
