Organisers are blaming the students/participants now ?

It's highly unprofessional for the organizers to blame the students for the delay in results due to plagiarism concerns. From the beginning, they announced this as an open-book exam, which inherently allows access to resources. If they had anticipated plagiarism as a potential issue, they should have defined clear guidelines and evaluation criteria beforehand, ensuring fairness and transparency. Shifting the blame onto the students now is a reflection of poor planning and oversight.

Moreover, it was their responsibility to create a robust evaluation system that accounts for the open-book format, and addressing this issue only after the fact reflects poorly on their organizational capabilities. Students should not be penalized for a delay caused by the organizers' lack of preparation. If plagiarism was such a concern, it should have been tackled preemptively, not used as a post-exam justification for inefficiency.

If they had a robust evaluation system already prepared for such open book formats quizes they would've answered my

    I'm not saying that plagiarism should be acceptable
    I'm saying that they should've already known that some people will still plagiarise the content, which is pretty predictable....
    They should've had a plan to tackle such problems
    After all it's a competition and every possible outcome should be handled just like error handling in languages
    The more careless they are towards these cases , the worse their management is
