# Competition Platform
## Features
- Archived all the write-ups up to that day and added them to the platform. (Thanks [Archive.org](http://Archive.org))
- Submitting a notebook with an `import` statement in a `try-except` block now [shows a warning](https://docs.crunchdao.com/competitions/participate/notebook-processor#specifying-package-versions) indicating that it will not work.
## Changes
- Increased the submission message size limit to 1,000 characters!
## Fixes
- Whitelisted library now works with multiple aliases. For example, [`cupy`](https://pypi.org/project/cupy-cuda12x/) would expose both `cupy` and `cupyx`.
# Competitions
## datacrunch
- Sent the payout.

why is that ? not sure it is best practice, but I tend to use try except block to avoid inference errors.

Sorry for the confusion, the `try-except` warning is only for `import` statements, not regular code.
Especially for such situation:
```auto
try:
import pandas
except ImportError:
%pip install pandas
import pandas
```

There is more details in the [documentation](https://docs.crunchdao.com/competitions/participate/notebook-processor#specifying-package-versions):
> Importing at a level other than the very top level will not work.
> Wrapping it in a `try-except` or `if-else` statement will generate a warning. The import will be ignored.
> Imports in functions are also ignored but do not generate warnings.
