**How does D already have 4k submissions?**↵
======================================================================================================================↵
**How does C have 12k submissions (with 10 minutes left in the contest)?**↵
======================================================================================================================↵
I thought I was having a good contest, So I stayed in the zone, and didn’t check the standings.↵
↵
After submitting D, I finally saw the standings — and I am shocked I am wondering about quitting CP altogether at this point.↵
↵
I miss the days when solving up to C roughly meant Expert-level performance…↵
…and solving up to D was around Candidate Master-level.↵
↵
Have I genuinely become bad at programming?↵
Or is there something else going on?↵
