Codechef Goodie

The Codechef Goodie site says that on a Codechef Contest win you get (300+20-Contest Rank ) points what does that mean ? Does it mean that if I have a global rank of 50 then i would get 270 laddus ?

No. It means go get laddu only when you get rank below 20. “20 - rank” is the bonus you get.

No i mean will a 50 ranked coder will get any laddus at all or not .

global rank of 50

The laddus are given to Top 10 global, Top 20 Indian, Top 5 school (Indian), Top 5 school (Global) (Read any long contest page for this)

So if the global 50 rank comes under top 20 Indian then you will get it. And most of the times, both of these are very close.
