    Should the Beta process be discussed at a kata discourse page, or on Discord, where more people can tune in?

    Is the Beta process the problem, or the ( inconsistent ) ranking? IMO, it's the ranking.

    we lowered perf constraints at some point, who updates their suggested rank after such update?

  • Custom User Avatar

    Just look at the rank suggestions, it should never have been approved at 7 kyu.
    And any 8 kyu ranking is outright trolling, so the balance is totally obvious.

    Then you go against beta ranking, are you still behind the current beta process or not? For me, the process no longer works.

  • Custom User Avatar

    apparently, people are still crying about the difficulty level of this kata, let's dismantle beta process altogether, it's useless

  • Custom User Avatar

    This kata needs to be reranked. White level is beyond ridiculous.

    it dont make sense. what if the array has 100M and the 1st item is the largest one?

  • Custom User Avatar

    Great kata, loved this one! Really makes you think

  • Custom User Avatar

    damn. this kata is relative hard. I don't think that is 7 kyu...

    Wow, I've completed 3kyu's I've had less trouble on. Was hoping to do a quick puzzle before bed but stayed up half the night trying to figure out what I was missing. My misconceptions before I started googling around were:

    1. That the fib%n sequence can be calculated the same as the fib sequence. I spent resources tracking the fib sequence in all its glory,
      and then modularing that answer to get the %n sequence.

    2. That in the thousands of numbers in a sequence, 0,1 will never repeat itself within the sequence. Spent a lot of
      time trying different comparison depths, first tracking that the whole sequence repeats itself at least 3 times, then twice,
      then that 10 numbers repeat, that 5 numbers repeat... all of which worked but were too slow. Even scanning through the wiki it
      never specifies that 0,1 was guaranteed to never repeat itself, unless I missed it.

    I agree with some of the previous comments about this getting a performance tag although I've seen your previous agruments for why not. Being ranked 7kyu I also wonder if the above were problems for others, and that maybe there should be hints regarding the above, but perhaps that gives too much away.
