Codeforces contest colliding with Codechef contest.

On 23rd june codeforces round is colliding with a rated contest in codechef. On 30th june again another codeforces contest is colliding with codechef lunchtime. Is it possible that the timings might be slightly changed that they don’t collide? I’m sure many participants would like to give both contests and don’t want to choose between the 2 especially since it is summer vacation and everybody has lot of free time.

@vijju123 can you do something here ^^ ??

Atleast date of IOITC can be changed. #changeDate

Regarding the contest on 30th (lunchtime), I have requested Nikolay (KAN) to make the changes in the Codeforces round timings. For the IOITC contest, we will shift its date by a day.

@vijju123 I think issue will be resolved when we will see change in dates on contest page xD.

I also think it would be good if you can sort things with makoto (rng_58) of Atcoder, regarding collision of regular contests of Atcoder and Codechef Lunchtimes. Because from my memory , I think I had to miss atleast 4 to 5 of previous 12 lunchtimes because of clash with atcoder regular contests.Since they use both Saturdays and Sundays for their contests. I think they might easily agree to move to Sunday especially on the week of Lunchtime. Do you think its possible??

21 - CF 490

22 - IOITC

It’s raining Season with 5 CC and 9 CF rounds in June.
Expected probability a contest will start on a day in June’18 = 47% ( never seen such high probability).

@admin as it has been pointed out the problem isn’t resolved but just shifted. There’s another Codeforces contest on 24th. So I guess 22 will be the correct day to host contest.

@admin #changeDate
