Challenge Overview
Currently, for SRM contest, the Arena client is the main tool for competing.
But when starting the arena applet, there is problem raised like

You can see the above problem in the console, when starting the arena applet by scripts.
Although, it is not causing any failure, but we'd like to see what is the root cause and how to fix that.
