Prepare for the winners of **IOCCC28**. > However these are not the 2024 droids you are looking for. :-) The HTML menu (both JavaScript and non-JavaScript) has been updated. The `Status -> Rules and guidelines' have been replaced with two separate menus `Status -> IOCCC rules` and `Status -> IOCCC guidelines`. Added a new top level `social.html` page: built from a new `social.md`. Sorted rules for building specific web pages in the top level `Makefile`. Added `make social` to make the `social.html` page from `social.md`. The `bin/gen-top-html.sh` now is able to process a argument of **social** to process the new top level `social.html` page. Changed `bin/gen-top-html.sh` VERSION from "2.0.0 2025-03-13" to "2.0.1 2025-07-25". Below `About -> Home page` a new `About -> IOCCC social media` menu item as added. Because the menu change touched every HTML file, we changed the general copyright date range for HTML files from "1984-2024" to "1984-2025" due to the extensive changes made for **IOCCC28**. Those markdown files that were modified in 2025 had their copyright date range also changed from "1984-2024" to "1984-2025". Rebuilt tarballs and sitemap due to the extensive HTML rebuilding. Ran `make update` to perform the above.

# Change your submit server initial password
|
|
|
|
Using the **Username** and **Initial password** you receive via
|
|
email in [step 3](../quick-start.html#step_3), you need to login to the [IOCCC submit
|
|
server](https://submit.ioccc.org).
|
|
|
|
**IMPORTANT NOTE**: You must change your password within a fortnight (**14 days**)
|
|
from when one of the [IOCCC judges](../judges.html) sent that email.
|
|
|
|
**NOTE**: The [IOCCC submit server](https://submit.ioccc.org) will be ready
|
|
for submissions **ONLY WHEN THE CONTEST IS [open](../faq.html#open)**. See
|
|
[current status of the IOCCC](../status.html) for details on the contest status.
|
|
|
|
**IMPORTANT NOTE**: When the contest is [closed](../faq.html#closed), the
|
|
[IOCCC submit server](https://submit.ioccc.org)
|
|
may be offline and unreachable as a website.
|
|
|
|
To login and change your password, open [https://submit.ioccc.org](https://submit.ioccc.org)
|
|
in your browser. The important lines should say:
|
|
|
|
> **Status**: Not logged in.<br>
|
|
> **Username**: <em>Enter Username</em><br>
|
|
> **Password**: <em>Enter Password</em>
|
|
|
|
The username is the UUID you are provided when a judge replies to your request
|
|
to register for the IOCCC and the password is the initial password you are
|
|
given. Click "Login".
|
|
|
|
After you log in, if this is the first time you have logged in with this UUID,
|
|
you will be required to change your password. Assuming everything is fine, that
|
|
would look something like:
|
|
|
|
It will then tell you that you **MUST** change your password within a certain
|
|
time (that it will give you) and then tell you the following about the new
|
|
password:
|
|
|
|
> Please enter your current password, a new password, and then reenter the same
|
|
new password.<br>
|
|
> Your password MUST be:<br>
|
|
> - At least 15 characters long<br>
|
|
> - At most 40 characters long<br>
|
|
> - NOT contain nor be a sub-string of the current password<br>
|
|
> - NOT contain nor be a sub-string of your username<br>
|
|
> - New password must NOT have been [Pwned](https://haveibeenpwned.com/Passwords)
|
|
>
|
|
> [Pwned](https://haveibeenpwned.com/Passwords) passwords are passwords that have been previously exposed in some published data breach.
|
|
|
|
Again, if you do not change your password within fortnight (**14 days**)
|
|
your account will be closed and it'll say something line:
|
|
|
|
> **ERROR: Sorry (tm Canada 🇨🇦) you cannot login at this time.**
|
|
|
|
If that happens, you will need to
|
|
[send email to the IOCCC judges](../contact.md#if-you-really-need-to-send-email-the-ioccc-judges)
|
|
to ask for your password to be reset.
|
|
|
|
Assuming you did login in time, you should put in your login (UUID username),
|
|
your old (initial) password and a new password and then click "Change Password".
|
|
|
|
**NOTE**: if you have put in your old password, you'll get the following error:
|
|
|
|
> **ERROR: Password not changed**<br>
|
|
> **ERROR: invalid old password**
|
|
|
|
Once you've changed your password successfully you will be able to log in again
|
|
with your UUID username and new password. When you have done this it will
|
|
report:
|
|
|
|
> • Password successfully changed.
|
|
|
|
When the contest is [open](../faq.html#open), proceed with
|
|
[Step 5: Obtain and compile the latest mkiocccentry toolkit](../quick-start.html#step_5).
