About the novice points
By Fly_elephant, history, 2 years ago, In English

How does the novice bonus point mechanism calculate excuse me？ Isn't it 500, 350, 250, 150, 100, 50? In a recent race, I was 49th. While a player who finished 50th had a higher rating than me but added 150 points, I had a Game 4 rookie bonus and only added 294 points.That is to say, excluding the novice bonus points, only added 144 points, excuse me, this is how? This is a screenshot of Educational Codeforces Round .

The rating displayed by the system in the "novice bonus point mechanism" is different from that used in the calculations. While you had a displayed rating of 1569 before the contest, your "real" rating was 1569+150+100+50=1869, while the user you mentioned had 1848 rating before the contest. Thus the difference.
