What is messing up the rankings?

Post by scottaugust »

Rankings seem to be getting messed up during the past month. For those of us that compete each problem, this kind of removes the reason for the rankings in the first place.

Scott means if he solved the problem with time 0.00 on 2002, and someone submit a solution of time 0.00 when the statistic rebuild in last few months, the new submission will take the top rank which should belong to Scott.

Ah. Well, IMO getting first place on problems where it's relatively easy to get 0.000 sec runtime is not very important, but opinions differ, of course.

One just has to wait for the next statistics rebuild then. :)
