Snackdown Penalty And more....

What is the penalty deducted for? I have some other friends, with even more wrong submissions, yet little to no penalty. Also, it shows that I have submitted 15 solutions, whereas, I only submitted 5 in total.It says 9 runtime errors, and 1 compile error. In the submission page, I had submitted only 5 solutions out of which 4 were wrong.
It would be great to know the reason of this issue, and correct it if possible.
Thanks

Hi @chaitanyag,

Can you please share on which link it is showing 15 solutions to you?
It is showing 5 solutions (4 WAs) for your team. https://www.codechef.com/SNCKQL16/status/KTTABLE,bvn1234

Time of submission also matters, when you hover on the scoreboard, it shows time for first ac submission on that problem. The penalty for WA is 20 minute i think. This is only added once the problem is successfully solved

Edit: Read Judging Criteria @ https://www.codechef.com/SNCKQL16/

It is showing the total number of submissions made on that team of yours. Previously, in CDBU2015 contest, you had made 9 Runtime Errors and 1 Compilation Error. I think it takes all the submissions made by the same team handle. And yes,you had submitted only 5 times in SNCKQL2016,so that brings down the tally to 9 runtime+1 CE + 5 submissions here. Hence it shows 15 submissions.

Hope this is the right answer. :slight_smile:
