But he used my computer to submit because there were some connection problems with his computer back then. Although he gave up this game later (he didn't join our team), still, our team were removed.\nWe use this form (<a href=\"https://www.kaggle.com/compliance\">https://www.kaggle.com/compliance</a>) to state our situation, but, no official feedback yet.\nIs there any chance that we can have our scores back?</p>\n\n<p>BTW, this our solution:  <a href=\"https://www.kaggle.com/c/humpback-whale-identification/discussion/82361\">https://www.kaggle.com/c/humpback-whale-identification/discussion/82361</a></p>\n\n<p>Thanks.</p>",
