Oct 3, 2016 at 16:43 comment added Nathan Merrill Broadly allowing standard loopholes is a bad idea, but we frequently have good challenges that allow a single loophole. For example, Fetching the desired output from an external source has been "overriden" a couple of times, such as for Automate the OEIS
Jul 27, 2016 at 5:09 comment added user45941 I'd argue that it's worth removing the allowance from the challenge completely, even if the author wants it to stay. We as a community have overwhelmingly voted to disallow the standard loopholes across the site, so one user should not be able to override that strong consensus.
