This year is the second time I participate in Shopee Code League. Every time, HackerEarth has so many issues. After 2 years, the platform never improve and it is even worse than last time:
- No support for team participation
- Can't handle load at beginning of contest - took forever for us to register and start looking at statements
- Broken leaderboard
- Judge queue too long - has to wait forever for submission to be judged
- On problem overview page, accept status takes forever to be updated.
- (Edit, based on comment below): No clarification system. So contestants need to ask question via Zoom.
- No announcement system. For example, statement of P1 was changed (to add missing constraints). However contestants received no announcement. I only know the statement changed because I randomly refreshed the page.
I participate in lots of programming competition and literally no platform is as bad as HackerEarth. Can't Shopee use something else?
Edit: Oh it even showed my name incorrectly :|
