Dear All,
I'm sure that quite few of us already know http://www.WeChal.net the website that links another challenge websites.
My question is simple: would that be possible that the development team could link Project Euler with WeChall.

Re: wechall integeration
We were asked that before by PM,
our answer has been:
"Although there is a mild competition on Project Euler we think that the main purpose of Project Euler is more educational than to offer a contest site.
Thanks for the offer.

Re: wechall integeration
Dear Staff of Project Euler
I want to apologize for myself.
Yes, i spammed your forum two years ago and wrote three annoying PM to one of your staff members, and your mind is probably settled for wechall.
I really want to apologize for that.
I understand that the philosophy for projecteuler is not the contest, but the beauty of math, and it`s implementation with the art of programming.
The competition is mild, but still there (Edit: and could easily be used and integrated into our network).
I think the linking to wechall can be done transparent to your users, and maybe we can even attract more open minds to your site, with the goal of learning in mind.
Please accept my appologies, and rethink about implementing the two hidden scripts for us.
Yours sincerely,
gizmore

Re: wechall integeration
At the latest count, our statistics page indicates that, so far 122735 users have submitted 2075886 correct solutions. Most "open minds" are probably already aware of Project Euler, even without it being a contest site.and maybe we can even attract more open minds to your site
When you assume something, you risk being wrong half the time.

Re: wechall integeration
How is wechall a "contest" site?
It seems as though they are also dedicated to the academics of puzzling challenges across a much larger domain than mathematics and programming. I would consider wechall more academic than projecteuler imo. I would put more academic value on wechall merely for the fact that it isn't about the mastery of a subject, but being damn good at a lot of subjects. I can vouch from experience in the past few months of being affiliated with wechall, that i've learned an immeasurable amount, not because I'm now being ranked amongst other people(just as any puzzle site does), but because there is a very broad range of affiliated sites. Please reconsider.
Thank You
