This user15 should be disqualified from SPOJ!
I can't believe that he/she can solve 339 Problems5 in a day! He/She steal my points and some other user in SPOJ indirectly.. cry
@admin: please take action.... I'm irritated to that user... angry

I have an idea :
We can submit for the same problem immediately after a submission,
but for another problem, we should be waiting for 10 min, it seems a reasonable delay.
Easy problem can be done under 10 min, okay, but we just have to wait a little, it would be very rare.
I'm even ok for 30min of delay, it's not a problem for me.

This can discourage cheaters to copy/paste solutions that can be found on the web,
those guys don't hesitate to submit every 20s an new problem submission.

Moreover, I think, all those accounts should be deleted, they are cheaters !

I'm not certain how you can define this as cheating.

Sorry I look too fast, I saw several distinct problems solved in few seconds,
I can see now that those problems are the same in a cycle.

It's just a curious attitude, a "test" like the name suggests.
The tester should have himself extract him from the rank list, that is fair.

I don't understand well why people have to "hide" them to test some things, but people are free ...

Sorry for inconvenience.

I suspect it's someone developing an auto-uploader. They're ony submitting tutorial problems.

I wouldn't want to use my account for that purpose, since it floods my submissions and skews my stats. This site is about learning and growing. Hiding your WA, TLE and etc only cheats yourself. The only thing that I consider cheating is giving someone else your code or deliberately submitting someone else's code. The scoring system is slanted towards submitting current problems being worthwhile. The editorial staff has been doing a good job of keeping the poor problems to a minimum so that the new problems are good problems.

Cheers!
