    "2310398": "Big drop on LB might be caused by api change. We need to sort index and question number to recover.",
    "2310400": "Yes, the api changes so it reruns but don't know about private dataset... I suppose new data would increase inference time but it didn't.",
    "2310786": "Sorry to ask u question here , actually , i hv tried to sort the index in Test, could you give me more detial on sort the question number ?? Thanks a lot in advance .",
    "2310881": "something like this: sample_submission is not sorted. you can see [discussion] (https://www.kaggle.com/competitions/predict-student-performance-from-game-play/discussion/412512#2274390) here. \n```python\nfor (test, sample_submission) in (iter_test):\n    test = test.sort_values(by = 'index')\n    # sample_submission is not sorted by question_num, we need to sort it by ourselves\n```",
    "2311597": "I am still unable to determine what the problem is with the new API. I obtained a CV with a score of 0.702, but the LB score is 0.695.🤕",
    "2311788": "maybe some leakage on your cv？",
    "2312511": "You are right. Now I think maybe the leakage happens in meta features process, even though I set special oof for it.",
    "2313630": "Btw, not sure if this is related to your question, but I have noticed today that some teams disappeared from top-100 efficiency LB, meaning that their submissions were re-ran and either errored, or the score dropped down significantly.",
    "2313872": "My teammate has same case here. The root cause of us is that efficiency leaderboard only take the selected submission into consideration and after we team up, we need to re-select our submission and then it will show in the efficiency leaderboard.",
    "2313874": "Hm, for me it shows the best submission, even though I didn’t select it.",
    "2313876": "yes, I guess if you don't select, it will show your submission with best public leaderboard.",
    "2313883": "I thought it is like a normal LB: whatever submission has the highest score is shown on the LB. It is a little bit confusing since it could take several days to get onto the efficiency LB."
