USACO submissions are broken

Opened this issue · 9 comments

USACO submissions are broken now that USACO added Cloudflare, since Cloudflare is blocking traffic from our IP.

I don't know how to fix this nicely.

Some options:

  • Use our own online judge rather than USACO's online judge
  • Ask Professor Dean to explicitly allow our application to bypass Cloudflare (DDoS concerns)
  • Switch to Vercel serverless USACO submissions, implement very aggressive rate limits, and pray the new IP address doesn't get targeted
  • Implement a Chrome extension to use the user's IP address to make these requests
  • Give up and disable this feature

I tried switching public IP addresses, but this didn't fix the issue. However, it does work on other VM's.

not able to submit the solutions,,,what should i do???

You can make an account on usaco.org and submit it there!

About creating new accounts... I tried to create an account on usaco.org with a gmail and another yahoo email but did not get any email containing the password. Would this be fixable?

I did try that. What email provider are you using?

Thanks but as I said before, there's nothing in there.
