Looking at his recent contest submissions, I'd say the reason is called "Python 2". Also known as "trying the impossible", that is, trying to get AC with a slow language.

    His most recent submission in Python 8788345:

    print "I cannot do it OAQ"

    Doesn't look like trying to get AC to me :p

      Lol. Well, that's just what I guessed from the submission language. If I was just trying to fail, I'd use my usual C++...

Once time I've read an article about "Computer game players types". According to classification given there — I am "Casual player" (who just like to play in your game) and "Content eater" (who can try to find some texture he haven't seen, even if it may take several hours).

I'm sure that's the reason of why I become angry when you say "can you guess why his rating decrease every contest ?" I have 100 answers, but WTF are you waiting for? JUST TELL US!

He is trying to be first in a div2 round, as he failed to do it in any div1 round lol

It doesn't matter whether dreamoon's rating increases or decreases, but what matters is that whether he is doing what a programmer must do and that is trying to learn something new which of course he is up to.

I guess he should lost in a gambling. And now he should pay by decreasing in codeforces rating...

He may have said to himself: "When I get to be international grandmaster, I will come back to the second division." And now is the time to fulfill the promise.
