Really Helpful!

Its because the Div 1 + 2 was the 6th contest of the user Mashirost and your rating is unstable in the first 6 contests that you participate in (its tentative). For more info you can check out this blog by Mike Rating changes

rainboy will win IOI 2025!

I feel like the "I read problem A and then decided whether to participate or not" situation is a real issue.
Let's say 30–35k people registered for a contest, but only 19k actually participated because problem A was tricky / hard.
The people who managed to solve problem A and outperformed others get no benefit from it, since those who couldn't solve it simply chose not to participate at all.

This is great , I've been trying my hands on it lately and its quite a nice approach for practicing. Could you just make a fix so that it gives like open contest based problems, like excluding the language specific contests like Kotlin Heroes or Microsoft #Q's and all

I get questions like this during a contest https://mirror.codeforces.com/problemset/problem/1001/D

Unironically this recent post of someone getting flagged has the exact same structure as yours with the only difference being the variable names https://mirror.codeforces.com/blog/entry/142112

Congratulations!!
