What will be the prize structure? Will first-timers in top200 still get 750rs?

Was this contest unrated ?

jyot_150 · February 22, 2022, 3:18am

Yeah same question…

matrix_is_real · February 22, 2022, 3:21am

I don’t see any change in my rating so confused if it was rated or not

normie_007 · February 22, 2022, 3:33am

Yeah my rating also remain unchanged

eternalfool_7 · February 22, 2022, 3:38am

why doesn’t my rating change?

suman_18733097 · February 22, 2022, 4:02am

Are they doing this?

aryanc403 · February 22, 2022, 6:23am

I don’t think so. They would be deliberating about if it should be rated due to issues related to PREFPERM.

PREFPERM wasn’t even present in Div 1. So I don’t see a reason why it should be unrated for Div 1. @admin Can you please update Div1 ratings at least? Once a decision is reached you can update/not update rating of other divisions based on it.

Thank you for clarifying this. I was constantly checking my ratings all day.

suman_18733097 · February 23, 2022, 10:10am

So many constructive problems. Can we call it a perfectly imbalanced round?

admin · February 23, 2022, 10:53am

The ratings have been updated for all. For users who were affected by the issue in PREFPERM, and who would have had their ratings decrease, we have made the contest unrated for them (ie. +0 rating change). There were 286 such users across all divisions.
