Can you please elaborate this one? I got some doubts. Like... We will need a moderator who decides the contest timings. Does a contest introduce new questions? Which are available for scoring during contest and later made public. I don't exactly understand how to get it started.
Right now questions are picked up from the filesystem when the server starts. Thus the questions may be attempted as soon as the server starts.
This issue needs to implement some sort of time based system that can have active/inactive states.
For example, you might want to say that the contest runs from 12:00 Saturday to 14:00 Saturday. Then you can start receiving participants at 11:00 Saturday and have them go through the instructions / practice questions and at the appointed time the contest suddenly becomes visible.
There is no concept of contest timings right now.
