Also if the kernels failed then you dropped off the LB.  In that comp, I was in the LB till then dropped off, no entries in my submissions as failed, no indication kernels were forked and rerun but no answer why not.  Be careful to give the idea that in that competition the final LB is large removal of users for violations.   Given how things have gone lately with GPU anything can happen in kernels and outcomes have to be accepted. </p>\n\n<p><a href=\"/francoisdubois\">@francoisdubois</a> - congrats on your final position!  You shared a lot in this competition and kept interest going when all the other later non allowed methods cluttered the LB so it was hard to decide to keep working on this.  Thanks for your posts and kernels.     </p>",
