I was plagiarised twice. According to the rules, I should've been penalized with a deduction of 1500 rating points, but my ratings were reduced to zero.
Read point 8. Did it not satisfy the doubt?
Also, the volatility issues of users with 0 rating participating in MAY18 experienced very low rating increment. When will the rating update?
I dont think rating increment was in the plan. It was, afaik, applicable from next contest onwards.
Cook-off is due tomorrow, is the volatility issue resolved
They are experimenting and trying things.
I think you mailed me. I had a look then, and I said to mail them back. If I recall correctly, you missed the time frame. As in, the sole decision depends on @admin and I have no say there. Sorry 
@abhineet14 I see, thanks for the info.Maybe when contestant gets penalty of plagiarism the no. of contests can be made 1 again?(I know this is hoping too much; but considering it is reasonable to give me and others in similar position better rating)

If there is a problem, be assured that we are working with @admin to fix it.
@vijju123 , please check it.
This isnt a bug. Your rank must be between expected rank calculated by your overall rating, and expected rank calculated by “only cook-off rating” which led to this.
I think following what codeforces does in their plagiarism cases is the best thing. Do not consider the contest for that user and skip over all his submission.

Seems good suggestion to me. Please remind me again tomorrow, I will present it to them when @admin is online.

Yes, we are still in talks with @admin regarding this. I asked them to have a look if its a fault from their end, and if that is, then take corrective measures. I will try my best relive you guys as much as I can.
Codechef can allow this to happen twice and then if it happens third time, the user should be banned.
This will help all those people who will be caught in plagiarism due to ideone in future cases.
PS-Reminder
Intimated to @admin , thank you
Nothing can be done if you made your code public on ideone.

reduce by idea is perfect… and making the process transparent is the best thing to do… 
I dont understand how its half a year after +K?
Your current rating is ~300. After a +800 it goes to 1100, and its easy to reach 1600 quickly within a month.
where is your +K thing?
Please be more polite. I refuse to read your query further.
u take my question in a wrong way. i am simply asking what happened to your idea. with that speed in increment of rating would cost a year. many users have same rating or even less rating have solved one question got the same increment. Atleast consider their performance . some have made new account , they are directly entering in to 3 star with same no of questions that i have solved.
Ok. Will update you when I hear from them.
