Here in LeetCode Civilization no-one chooses to code for the hard, it's better to be safe and code for the easy rather than risk it all for the hard.
Practice your LeetCode skills by ascending the ranks in LeetCode Civilization. Complete questions to rank up and become the LeetCode Champion.
Start by using /link
Input your LeetCode username, found in your profile. Then continue the linking process. Next put the code generated in your profile summary for the bot to see.
Finish this process by using /verify
Congratulations! You have joined LeetCode Civilization, you are now ready to get tickets and rank up!
Tickets are the currency in LeetCode Civilization. You can gain tickets in a few ways:
- Completing new questions on LeetCode and then using the
/synccommand to update your completed questions - Completing the LeetCode daily question by using the
/dailycommand after solving the question (you can use/syncon this question if you haven't already solved it to double dip on points!) - Competing in LeetCode battles, this will be explained more later!
To rank up in LeetCode Civilization you must complete a rank up trial. If you pass the trial you rank up. The trial is a timed LeetCode problem. You have 25 minutes to complete the trial. The difficulty of the problem depends on the rank you currently possess:
- Noob --> Pro: Easy (50 tickets)
- Pro --> Master: Medium (100 tickets)
- Master --> Champion: Hard (150 tickets)
- Champion --> Champion (+LP): Medium/Hard (150 tickets)
Once you reach the Champion rank, completing the rank up challenge gives you LP (Leet Points). Rise to the top of the Champion rank to claim the title of LeetCode God (figuratively).
An important part of LeetCode Civilization are LeetCode battles. At any time you can challenge someone else to a LeetCode battle. The aggressor decides the difficulty of the problem. If the person challenged chooses to accept the battle, both parties are given the same random question of the chosen difficulty and whoever solves it first wins the battle.
LeetCode battles are started with the /battle <user> <difficulty> command. A prompt will show up for the challenged person to accept. The first person to solve the question within the 60 minute time limit and use the /submit command wins the battle. If the battle times out, then no-one wins and nothing happens.
The consequences for winning or losing a LeetCode battle can vary. If a Noob is involved in the battle, then nothing happens at all. This can be considered as just practice.
If the parties are of unbalanced rank, the loser still drops a rank but if the winner is of higher or equal rank, then they gain tickets instead of rising a rank. If the lower ranked player wins, they still rise a rank.
If one of the parties is Champion rank, then they gain/lose LP for battle wins/losses.
If both parties agree to call off the battle, one of the parties can use the /cancel command to send a request to end the battle.
You can use the /profile command to check your stats. It features how many tickets you have, how many problems you have solved, and your win/loss record for non-Noob battles.
You can use the /leaderboard command to check the top 10 ranking leaderboard. The leaderboard is sorted by elo in the Champion tier, and by tickets in lower tiers.
