Codex challenge is freezing? or is it just me?

Same here

My submit and “codex it” buttons are greyed out as well…

Hi all, following up: challenge servers are overwhelmed (codex is just fine though!) We will follow up soon!

It won’t let me submit Problem 1 at all. I clicked Submit multiple times, but nothing happens from it

New twitter post restating the above message from Luke.

So far I’ve been able to submit/run, however, when I try to use ‘Codex It’ I get nothing.
Maybe the real Codex Challenge is the friends we made along the way.

None of the buttons have worked for me so far and I’m 40 min in :frowning:

Now I just finished the first problem but I can’t submit it. Also, the codex button freezes everything

yep, I’m sitting in with the engineering team right now. I’ll provide any new updates as soon as I get them.

I think the page is totally stuck again. It doesn’t show any problem.

How do you submit? I’ve been hitting the submit button for a while now. I see the values print out, but it doesn’t tell me if it’s right, wrong or solved.

yea servers are really overloaded taking a long time to load

facing same problem too so many people uses codex IT and finished it too ???

Yes I can’t submit code like for 30 minutes or so

We’re back up and running! We’ve extended the challenge by 3 hours.

Due to the delay and overload issues, will the top 500 still be decided by time spent?



I crashed the server. error message was crazy

ah, it wasn’t just me! I couldn’t do anything for 2 hrs on problem 1, then problem 2 was a shorter but still long wait before I could use codex/submit too. after that it cleared up, but by the time I finished it was way outside top 100 and I’d had to sit and watch the sidebar of people completing questions while I still hadn’t been able to start. was looking forward to it and I still enjoyed the challenge/testing, but was a shame I couldn’t “compete”. glad for the opportunity though!
