Ayham_Dabah's blog

By Ayham_Dabah, history, 13 months ago, In English

Hi everyone.

As the picture describes me, I will tell you the story why I'm sad :(

I participated in the 847th round, and after the end of the system test, I received this message from the system.

The message

Yes, the solutions match up pretty well, but not because we cheated.

The problem was too standard and everyone calls it Xenia and Tree 2. I have Xenia and Tree as a reference problem for Centroid Decomposition.

Anyway, I (it turned out we) copied neal's solution and changed what needed to be changed.

Here is my solution vs neal's solution

As you see the code was written and published/distributed before the start of the round.

The reason why I'm posting too late is the rate rollback issue, I was hoping to get my rate back after I commented this comment.

It's not fair that I got skipped and some people who really cheat didn't get.

I didn't cheat... I know it can be solved with CD..... I didn't share my code with any person... I didn't use ideone or any other online compiler... I don't know these guys... I love codeforces... and I love shawarma...

so please MikeMirzayanov take a look at this. hope you say "The punishment will be reverted." :(

I know coach Ayham for a while, and he is the one who trained me. It is impossible for him to be cheating.

Dear MikeMirzayanov. Coach Ayham is ICPC world finalist and one of the most involved coaches in creating the next generation of problem solvers and competitive programmers in the local community, a person in such capabilities would never think about cheating. Please give him his rating back.

He is far beyond any such action.

My friend Ayham and I do not speak because he is my friend, but to say what I know so that you may do justice to him and do not let his colors fade in the washing machine. Certainly the problem is standard, so there is a similarity. Otherwise, my coach would have shared these solutions with us, we are his trainees, and there is no link linking him to the other account. Let him eat his shawarma with Hana.

Coach Ayham is an experienced coach who trains students. Is it reasonable for him to be a coach and cheat ? , I am sure something is wrong

His rating graph gives a clear insight that he is not a cheater.

I was introduced with Ayham_Dabah by my friend from Aleppo AshcoOoOdel. Right now I look in codes from few Aleppo coders for clearing my doubts on any particular question. I clearly know that guy won't cheat ever. MikeMirzayanov please revert his punishment
