HI ALL, TWO DAYS BACK I GOT A MAIL THAT CLAIMS THAT MY SOLUTION TO THE PROBLEM 1791C - Prepend and Append IN THE CONTEST Codeforces Round 849 (Div. 4) MATCHES WITH SOMEONE OTHER WHOM I DIDN'T KNOW. THE CONTENT OF THE MAIL IS AS FOLLOWS:

Attention!

Your solution 191920012 for the problem 1791C significantly coincides with solutions joshi.ishaan.2001/191889476, singhal.adi/191920012. Such a coincidence is a clear rules violation. Note that unintentional leakage is also a violation. For example, do not use ideone.com with the default settings (public access to your code). If you have conclusive evidence that a coincidence has occurred due to the use of a common source published before the competition, write a comment to post about the round with all the details. More information can be found at http://codeforces.com/blog/entry/8790. Such violation of the rules may be the reason for blocking your account or other penalties. In case of repeated violations, your account may be blocked.

NEITHER I KNOW THIS PERSON, NOR HE IS MY FRIEND LIST. MOREOVER I HAVE NOT USED ANY KIND OF ONLINE COMPILER, I SIMPLY USED VS-CODE FROM DAY-1. IF ANYHOW HIS CODE MATCHES WITH ME ITS JUST A MATTER OF COINCIDENCE, THAT'S NOT MY FAULT BECAUSE IN SUCH LARGE NUMBER OF PEOPLE THERE IS ALWAYS A CHANCE OF SAME THINKING SET. IT IS POSSIBLE THAT A PARTICULAR WAY OF THINKING CAN ATTRACTS 2 OR MORE PEOPLE WHICH DOESN'T MEAN THAT THEY COPIED EACH OTHER CODE. YOU CAN SEE I HAVE GIVEN MORE THAN 10 CONTESTS AND I NEVER RECIEVED ANY SUCH WARNINGS EARILER. THEN WHY I AM GETTING THIS WARNING NOW WHEN I HAVE NOT COPIED A SINGLE WORD. ITS JUST A MATTER OF COINCEDENCE.

I REQUEST YOU TO REMOVE THIS WARNING FROM MY ACCOUNT AND GIVE MY RATING OF THIS PARTICULAR CONTEST Codeforces Round 849 (Div. 4) BACK. MikeMirzayanov
