Bartholomew, Just out of curiosity - how prevalent are disqualifications? My understanding that they are not needed at all in QR, but the close you get to Finals, the more time should be reasonably spent on testing contestants compliance with rules (probably some algorithm which determines closeness of contestants solutions using some AI-class algorithm + some analysis of submission times).
If you think that it's better to not get into details on disqualifications to not tempt people in trying to break rules wihtout getting caught - I would understand that. Compliance by obscurity actually does work in contrary to security by obscurity. :) -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google Code Jam" group.
