    Hey, admins. Thanks for the nice contest. I did not have time to finish a level but would like to check if I done it correctly. Would there be a way to do it, similar to the verification we had during the competition and to those you offer in sample tasks?

    Just one improvement that could be made for the submission checker: Please ignore additional spaces and newlines. My team got several penalty minutes due to that lmao
    Andrei Gavrila
    @andrei-i-gavrila
    We'll look into that. We shouldn't have had issues with it but we'll double check

    Quick question, how do the penalty minutes work in the ranking?

    Great to hear that you enjoyed the contest. Sadly, it's currently unclear if the contest will be publicly available in the future.

    does top 3 become a prize or something?

    Quick question, how do the penalty minutes work in the ranking?

    They get added to your actual time taken.

    Would love to hear how everyone organized? How did the teams actually go about solving the tasks?

    They get added to your actual time taken.

    So the time that is displayed already has the penalties calculated in?

    Exactly.

    We'll look into that. We shouldn't have had issues with it but we'll double check

    @kiuny What I mean was additional newlines at the end of a file, or additional spaces at the end of a line.

    Thank you for the great contest! And Congratulations to the winners :) My Team and me are wondering how you were able to finish up so fast. We have joined the event for our third time today and already worked out how to speed up parsing inputfiles, managing version control for levels, etc. What are your secrets for beeing so fast, is it because of the python language, huh? :D
    (we are writing java code)

    @chza210281
    Would highly appreciate a solution for level 4. We were close but our approach was way too complex. We are obviously missing something. Thanks

    @adamsondavid i am also coding in java. made it to level 6 in 58 minutes then got stuck there for 2 hours and finished lvl 7 after 3:45. I think the language can have small effects on the lower levels, but higher up its more important to come up with a suitable algorithm and know how to implement it in your language..
    of course i have a (really small) framework for the CCC that reads inputfiles 1-5, and provides everything for writing the output afterwards. its probably easy to rewrite it within 15 minutes but still helps in focusing.
    and how to be fast: do bad coding. no tests, no version controll, nothing. i also adapt/break code for lower levels when it helps on higher levels. Its not about building a good product, its about producing the outputs for the current level as fast as possible. so focus on that ;)

    just saw the global leaderboard: some folks finishing in an hour is really impressive. congratz!

    On the AI CCC level 2 Where is the labeled data?
    The input files I downloaded only contain unlabeled examples
    Markus Schreiber
    @AIFan_gitlab
    If you refer to the train data in the input file at the top (Not over the level directly)
    Please for game specific questions refer to the acording game chats as e.g. ai-level2

    Total coders at The Web means all registered or just the ones from The Web? :)

    Just from the web. Global results will be published after the contest :)

    Will the contest be available as a normal catcoder challenge again, like last year?

    Can someone share (via WeTransfer or something) the level descriptions and the inputs (and maybe the also the correct outputs) for all the levels. I would like to solve them. :)

    suggestion for next year: please use discord for communication during the contest, it's much more convenient than gitter
    and whatever platform is used, advertise it better on the contest page so that people can discover it
