I noticed that all the solutions got "Time Limit Exceeded" has a running time of -1.00. But some days ago(maybe yesterday), I can see the running time actually if the running time doesn't exceed 2*(time_limit).
Could some one tell me the reason?

I suppose you mean the data displayed in the "signedlist"? Let's say that the previous state of affairs was not really intentional wink.

So, programs are still run as before (killed after approx. 2*tl), and problem-setters can make use of this in special judges, but this behaviour is liable to change and should not be relied upon.
