I get the same sometimes the last weeks - but usually it resolves itself when playing the code a couple of times or submitting to the arena. I have the feeling it’s some (bad) internet connection issue, randomly solved by reloading.
Why do some users have the [CG] tag beside their usernames?
Like these people:
Thanks.
Code-Parser
They’re CG staff.
Right, thanks very much!
@5DN1L
However… how do I know that they’re really CG staff?
I can easily just change my username and add the [CG] to my name.
See my screenshot:
In the forum, a shield icon is shown next to their names.
In the Discord server, they’re assigned the relevant roles.
Then why do you have a shield?
Nevermind… I know why.
Is there a way to search for community puzzles made by a specific codingamer? A really like to solve the puzzles made by Lisa-Has-Ideas, but a cant find a way for searching for it
There isn’t an official way to do so. There are some unofficial ways, though.
One way is to look through the unofficial list of puzzles.
Another way is to write your own code to extract CodinGame’s puzzle database to search it.

Ah, shucks. Thanks for the kind words.
I agree with 5DN1L’s suggestion.
In addition, you can see all my Clashes here:
CodinGame Clash search
Just search for Lisa-Has-Ideas

I wonder, is CodinGame site for more experienced programmers or beginner friendly? How does it compare to other similar sites? What does it mean when we thrive here?
To solve the puzzles on CodinGame, you’re expected to have at least learned some basics of a programming language, or you’re prepared to research and learn while you’re solving the puzzles.
This website features practice puzzles as well as multi-player games (code golf, optimisation, bot programming, clashes). Other websites may not have as many features.
For more information, you may read their FAQ here.
Hi!
I get that the submit tests are different than the example tests. But in a clash of code, how do you know that there’s a mistake somewhere if it passes 100% the example tests, and then you can’t come back after submitting?
Also, how do you learn from clash of code in these conditions when you don’t know which tests it didn’t pass? I mean, since the example tests pass with 100%, that means that even if I get the same clash some over time, I’d still wouldn’t know what is wrong. Especially when it is a reverse mode, I wouldn’t know what is expected of me!
For the learning aspect, use the solo puzzles. You will still not see the validator input, but you can revisit your code and the lack of timer leads you to give a more thorough look at the problem.
CoC is mostly for fun only.
Thanks for your reply!
I still find it very frustrating though…
