  "content": "<p>I have read that feature engineering is not important in this competition and many tried to add new features without having an improvement in their LB score. Since I don't have time for kaggle the last days, I decided to use the features published in kernels and focus on trying different models and then stack( It is my first time to use stacking)... But my best model is only : 11 folds CV 3.668, LB 3.69 \nIs what I am doing right or should I dedicate my time to creating new features?\nPS: Since it is the last day  for merger deadline, I would be grateful if someone with great features could teamup with me  (I ll be dedicating my time the next week to the competition trying to win my first medal)\nMy email is : Firas.baba@supcom.tn\nThank you </p>",
