I have found that CodeChef actually plans their contest much ahead of time. For example
- The December Challenge 2016 has been set from Friday, 2nd December, 2016 15:00 to Saturday, 12th December, 2016 15:00 (IST)
- The December Cook-Off 2016 has been set from Sunday, 18th December, 2016 at 21:30 to Monday, 19th December, 2016 at 00:00 (IST)
-
The December Lunchtime 2016 has been set on Friday, 25th December, 2016 from 11:00 A.M. to 2:00 P.M. (IST)
I found this by mistyping the date for
COOK59 as
COOK60 instead and then I started experimenting from there after I saw that the July Cook-Off has already been planned. It seems that December 2016 is the last month for which contests have been planned. Are these dates and times subject to change or will these be the exact time for the contests in December 2016? Thank you for looking at this!

Do you have plans for December 2016 as well ? I suggest you take a dongle along.

The dates are highly unlikely to change but may change if some dire circumstance arise. I read about one cook off that was changed so that the students of a specific college can’t take part because they were having there end sems. So code chef guys are very helpful but it is still very highly unlikely.
