tell me — what is point of rating

also tell me — what is point of rated contests of rating is not meaningful

that’s why i suggest unrated contests to all because many people don’t need rating to show skill.

i don’t understand why so many contests are rated

instead of the curretn rating system, i suggest we remove that completely.

instead we should add a system where everyone is measure based off one contest rather than their whole skill

this demotivates people — i have personal experience.

please upvote to give support

rating is not a good metric of skill. rating should not be used as a metric of skill. instead, i suggest that people can assign their own rating because they know their skill better. upvote if you agrees

in recent div 2 contest, bakooora suspiciously got A in record time. also bakooora uses cin.tie(0) which is extremely unfamiliar code to me and probably indicates cheating.

NO ONE HAS RESPONDED TO MY LAST BLOG.

u BETTER help me on THIS: https://mirror.codeforces.com/problemset/problem/9/A

someone please explain the implementation. I CANT FIND THE SOLUTION

i NeedHelp on my InfinitePath to Madnessss

noimi cheated in tourist round. got 1st problem in suspicious time — 2 minutes. if i cant even do that problem, there is no way someone can do it in 2 minutes.

https://mirror.codeforces.com/contest/1782/submission/189306919 — submission. the submission shows that he manipulated the test cases — look at all the code on the top of the submission (he has a lot of #defines and other suspicious writing)

please do something about this

i am considering participating in next contest, but i don’t feel like taking it on the current set date.

i should be able to dictate when i can take it and when everyone else should.

PLEASE CHNAGE CONTEST SO that I CAN change the times.

my schedule should be around the same of that of many people, so THERE SHOULD NOT BE ANY ISSUES.

let n be a number you are given n numbers of t.

Rus is thinking of a number in the n numbers you are given

find the number Rus is thinking of.

0 <= t <= 1000 0 <= n <= 10^8

please add this to question B or C in the next div 1 or div 2 contest

if everyone could create rated contests, more contests will be available

it's a win-win

more practice problems which is very IMPORTANT

i urge you to consider allowing everyone to create rated contests with the ability to make their own problems.

if contest itself is bad, just dont participate — it's only an advantage

i am a believer of reason: there ARE NO DOWNSIDES NO ONE CAN NAME A REASON OF A PROBLEM WITH THIS

NO DOWNSIDES

therefore: it will only be a net-positive

THIS IS DOWNVOTER. DOONT BE ONE

UPVOTE ONLY.

Contribution should NOT have any negatives. ONLY POSITIVE COntribution.

It's only better. THINK ABOUT THE ADVATNGAES

NO DOWNSIDES to NO DOWNVOTES

U LAUGHED!! YOU MUST UPVOTE OR BADDDDDDDD

UPVOTEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE.

chatGPT is very useful for competitive programming. Start using it! don’t be a non chatGPT user!

chatgpt https://openai.com/blog/chatgpt/interact.sh/%2F../ is making competitive programming easy.

if i were to go to contest, i could solve 6-8 problems easily.

every coder can basically relax because chatgpt is able to solve problems for us.

there is no need to worry about rating anymore because competiteve programming is way easier.

chatgpt is solution to coding problems

i tried it out on many problems and it worked!

i have seen that people get stuck in ranks becaus of speed related issues. that's why i PROPOSE THAT the lenght of a contest should be suited for one's skill

FOR EXAMPLE newbies get 2 hour more for contests, pupils get 1 hour 40 minutes more, etc.

SPEED NOT big a factor into a contest where the GOAL is to SOLVE MORE PROBLEMS.

contest length needs to be allowed for more FAIR and BETTER contests

upvote to show support!

this is a serious blog that i genuinely believe in.

div 5 is only going to bring advantages. THERE ARE NO DISADVANTAGE.

div 5 contest should contain 6-8 problems rating from 400-1200

rated for everyone below 1600

pros: GOOD PRACTICE GOOD FOR EVERYONE HELPS EVERYONE EASIER TO MAKE

please consider this. remember — THERE ARE NO DISADVATANES

if you don’t want div 5, please list a REASON. don’t just say it’s stupid, because it’s really not

Heap_OverFlow is doing his codeforces job for the community. upvote his comments that downvote useless blogs.

not only that, but he reports cheaters that destroy the integrity of contests. reminder to be thankful to those who report these disgraceful cheaters.

respect to heap!

given an array of length n, find the sum of all elements and subtract the median of the array. print the answer

constraints are 0 < n < 10^20

each element is 0 < element < 10^21

if you can’t solve this, UPVOTE THIS

upvotes will MOTIVATE people to higher quality blogs

i have noticed discrimination towards negative contributes individuals

THATS WHY

UPVOTES ONLY SHOULD BE IMPLEMENTED

DOWNVOTES FOR BAD, UPVOTES FOR GOOD

ignoring a blog will be better than DOWNVOTING

UPVOTE PLEAS

i respect polygon and codeforces a lot. it is a very good site that improves coding skills. im not joking — i am not trying to disrespect codeforces with my blog posts.

PLEASE START UPVOTING TO LET ME GAIN CONTRIBUTION

ALSO UPVOTE IF YOU AGREE WITH ME THAT THIS SITE IS AWESOME

UPVOTE AND DONT DOWNVOTS

DOWNVOTES ONLY BAD

virtual contests should be rated. just ensure the solutions can’t be seen

it would definitely help out a lot of people who are stuck in lower ratings.

it would definitely be beneficial as long as cheating can be prevented.

it is more fair than you think — don’t say it’s not fair because of later starting times — it doesn’t matter

the concept of rating should be changed. getting lucky/unlucky does not show true skill but it changes rating. also there seems to be a lot of rating biases in codeforces because people tend to upvote higher rated people.

please stop perpetuating the current biases, and UPVOTE.

UPVOTE TO SHOW SUPPORT ABOUT RATING BEING REMOVED/MODIFIED

on my last POST so many people gave me DONWVOTES.

THAT'S THE PERFECCT REASON WHY THERE SHOULDNT BE DOWNVOTES

it doesnt stain a person's reputation, and it wont immediately make the person uncredible.

WARNINGS SHOULD BE GIVEN INSTEAD OF STAINING A PERSON'S REPTUTATION FOREVER

EDIT: let me clarify something — it's demotivating to gain a negative contribution. that's why there shouldnt be downvotes altogether. if u dont like a post, just dont upvote it.

GOAL: PLEASE CONSIDER WHAT I HAVE SAID

i understand a lot of people make bad posts, but shouldnt contribution just be gained?

if people are making bad posts — just warn them.

i feel like making a system of just gaining contribution would give more credibility to those who have more contribution.

also, negative contribution stains a person's profile.

THIS IS THE EXACT EXAMPLE — PLEASE OPVOTE THIS POST.

i recently received a warning from the system for trolling too much, and i would 100% agree with my pretty inappropriate behavior. i feel like it's time to shed light onto the posts of littlejuruo who is obviously posting blogs that are not helpful for the community. i feel like the system managers should warn him and block his content for some time because a lot of his blogs are just nonsense.

at this point, a lot of his blogs are just satirical and a warning would probably help.

Ex: he has just recently posted a blog that actually gained UPVOTES, but shortly deleted it. this shows that he wants downvotes.

btw, no disrespect to littlejuruo — i have done the same thing in the past.

PLEASE GIVE littlejuruo WARNING
