Project Euler

Hi my little Christmas Father,
Or FatherChristmas, or Santa Claus...

I have been very wise on this 2008 year.
For example, I only cheated five times last week to solve WeChall challenges and I did'nt hacked more than 745 websites since the beginning of December. It's really better than last year and the year before. In fact, my daddy (perhaps you heard about him, his name is Kevin M.) is very proud of me : he gave me a little Condor for my last birthday.
So, I hope that you will send me the only gift I want to receive for X-mas, I mean that ProjectEuler joins WeChall.

I promise to be wiser and wiser and send you big kisses.
XXX (not XSS).

Today i pm'd someone at project euler about joining wechall.
Sadly they already decided not to join, 6 months ago. they just forgot to inform me.

Although there is a mild competition on Project Euler we think that the main purpose of Project Euler is more educational than to offer a contest site.
Thanks for your offer but we decided not to accept it.

Anyway, who wants to learn math and coding is definately right at their site.

Shame about that but I recommend the site - very educational challs

The more reply here the better.

Too late I guess but I'd like to see project Euler included on WeChall.

It did not matter how many people replied here, as their decission was already settled when starting this thread.
They just forgot to tell me.


I think i did a basic mistake by posting the join request into their public forums.
Since then, it is advised to ask challenge site admins in private message or email.


I can not really agree myself with their reason for not joining wechall, as i think there is more than a "mild competition" on project-euler. For example they got a ranking especially for the latets N problems.


Maybe they will change their mind one day, but that`s doubtful.
Lesson learned: do not "spam" public forums.


I also thought about a "wrapper" which would enable sites that don`t want to join, but that would imply security issues as sometimes we would need your password for that site.
Also it is not nice to rank them if they do not want to participate.
As a final strike we added the "Not Ranked" section.

I'd love to see project euler joining wechall. It's one of the best math website ever.

Too late!
