    "598764": "Some team have submitted a memorize GAN score so their really score is hidden.\nSo I think it will be more competitive for the final result.",
    "598775": "Thanks for sharing.",
    "598869": "Nice chart! I think there are at least a few more people with results better than mine. And the current metric has a few flaws. IMO it biased towards diversity too much. It's possible to get a good score with lots of crappy pics. Hard to say how the 'secret' private model will behave at stage 2.",
    "598878": "Yes they are . But how I have checked is ..gradual improvement and the timeline of posting . If you download the raw data from leaderboard .you can see some people posted a score of 31 or 15 in June and then didn't progress ..Your submissions shows a gradual improvement from 50 odd .",
    "598880": "True, current metric is definitely biased towards diversity. That explains why my rushed up crappy conditional GAN performs better than a non-CGAN I crafted in several days.",
    "598899": "I guess this chart may miss a lot of teams...",
    "599010": "Yes, this chart is missing my traditional GAN submissions.\n\nNice chart Nirjhar. Is this chart missing everyone who submitted a memorizer GAN (in addition to traditional GANs)?",

    "599072": "Weird, there's probably a time delay. I submitted an LB 58 three days ago and an LB 55 yesterday. This morning I submitted an LB 47!! You should update this post after the deadline today (and again 24 hours later to capture delay).\n\nI'm surprised that there are only 90 teams with a traditional GAN better than 61. That means someone could submit your LB 60 kernel and get a bronze medal.",

    "599169": "&gt; I think it is not time delay. A submission log is recoded into the raw data of LB when you take best score at that time.\n\nAh, that explains it. If you submitted a memorizer GAN weeks ago scoring LB 7 (which 300+ teams did). And today you submit a traditional GAN scoring 50, the new submission doesn't get recorded.\n\nIf that's the case, then the list in this post is missing many teams.",
