@vijju123 To satisfies both the parties, codechef can create 2-types of Rank-list:-
1)All-Time-Ranklist.
2)Present-Ranklist.:slight_smile:
It will make Codechef so unique!

Codechef Contests from 2012-2015 saga are relatively easier compared to 2016-2019 saga. It means it was easier to get a higher rating back then and even solving few of the easy problems could fetch a div-1 rating. For example,even normal dudes became 2000+ on Codechef in 2012-2013 due to too much inflation and bad rating system.
.So,You will never know where you exactly
Stand:p

Okay true but NVM… There is no harm for me to assume my competitors more powerful… After all it will make me more powerful through motivation :smiley:

I suggest that the rating system be modified to include ‘inflation’, that participation in recent events counts for more than in events longer ago. For example, every month each user’s existing rating points should be multiplied by say 0.99, while new points are added in full, so that users need to keep competing to maintain their rank.

Bro,I started cp 6 months ago and have observed you since then :slight_smile: Bro,you are a pro. I was just thinking of those 2-3 star guys. They go through lots of demotivation and leave cp and they are the actual majority in Codechef :slight_smile:

Totally agree… That’s why I am saying both rank list would do…

That seems like forcing people to participate to keep the work they did earlier…

Doesn’t seem fair to those who want to maintain an increase rating graph. The idea of removing users who haven’t been participating in the last 6 months/ 1 year, should be good enough.

@VIJJU123 91 VOTERS, action should be taken or put in pipeline! :slight_smile:

That already exists. Go to your page there are separate tabs for Long, Cookoff and Lunchtime ratings

he is saying that the rating should be separate, no overall rating.
