Using CodinGame for In-Office Contest

General
#1

Hello CodinGame!

First - I just recently discovered CodinGame and I’m really impressed. Great job.

I was able to participate a bit in the Ghost in the Cell contest and the quality of the content and the system overall was really great. I’m considering setting up a coding contest within our office based on the next CodinGame contest “Coders in the Caribbean”.

I’m thinking the best way to do that is to have everyone that is interested enter the contest as they normally would and then just compare overall ranks between all of the participants.

My questions are:

  1. Has anyone else used CodinGame for this kind of thing before? How did it go?
  2. Is there a better way to manage the contest than what I’ve outlined above?
  3. Is there a convenient way to compare all of the player’s ranks? Filtering by Company? Perhaps using the “friends” system in CodinGame?

Thanks!

There are different leaderboards: world, country, university, company, following.
Add your colleagues as friends and go to that leaderboard or make all of them enter the company in their profile.

Exactly! I’ll update the Trello board with accurate information for Coders of the Caribbean before the end of the week.
