I have been waiting to see my rating change so that I can become expert for almost 3 days!

Why is it still not updated? Never see any contest slower than this one.

### UPDATE:Finnally! The rating change applied!

    very very very depressed, cause the announcement said it is rated for div2, and there is no notification saying it will be unrated. QAQ

      You'll get your rating, don't worry. There's no reason for them to make the contest unrated. Generally, contests are made unrated if there are server issues during the contest or if the test cases for many problems are inaccurate. None of those things happened this time.

        Thank you very much. This contest is my finnal chance to accomplish my goal of becoming expert from 0 in a school year, it means a lot to me.By the way, what is my level among all players if I do become expert in 1 year? I want to get at least 1 ICPC regional prize before my retirement.

          You're doing well right now, but shouldn't you aim for IOI if you're still in school?

            I m in university, freshman now but will soon become sophomore. I like solving arithmetic problems and I sometimes even regret for not knowing IOI or ACM when I was younger.

              well you're no different from me, at least you started in your freshman year. Give it another year, try to reach Master or at least candidate master then I think there's a good chance for you.

      congrats btw. Bro, now when you are expert, how do you think is it possible to reach 1600 in 3 month? I have a little goal rn, but I am feeling now that my progress is stuck. I already understood couple of my mistakes, like solving dp, tree etc problems, while I cant do brute force 1300 even in 30 minutes. But I still feel that there is TOO many factors except the real skill that stopping me. I literally read 4 problems and 4/4 problems I read wrong and I just cant fight it. Can you please give me some advice about it? I believe that my skill is groving, but how to fight so stupid mistakes like misreads, stupid code problems, bad mood before the contest etc? How is your rating is so stable?

        reach 1600 from 1200 in 3 months? That is a long tour. Look into my profile and you will find that I stucked in green and gray name for a pretty long time. I think the only way to improve your rating is to practice. you need not stuck on thouse tough problems that may be too hard for you now, you may try some easier problems such as greedy strategy or consruct problems which usually appear as div2 A,B and C. If you can stably solve 3 problems of div2 in about 30mins, reaching 1600 is just a matter of time.

For real why is it taking this long? My rating dropped a little below my friend’s in Saturday’s contest and he has been annoying me since. I need to gain a little asap.

    By solving easy problems pretty fast...... For example, I solved A,B,C of last edu round in 30 mins, which makes my performance rating came to 1900+ at that moment.Then I solved D 40 mins after, and my perfomance rating ended up at 1860 when the contest ended.

    as far as I know, it`s cant be called "fast", just average level. About tips, I think you need to practice and learn hard if you want to make achievement.

This is my assumption.

I think, as we all know, in the last contests (Codeforces Round 1033 (Div. 2) and CodeNite 2025), many people cheat. This has led many coders to write blogs or posts about it on Codeforces to do something. Up to now, Codeforces has not updated the ratings for the edu round 180. So, it might be that the Codeforces team is taking action regarding these cheating incidents, which is why they may stop updating ratings for all contests held after that.
