It'd be nice to have country ranklist in contest, we can see our position in our own country(those who provided their country in CF). It'd be easier to see where I'm at. There's another way, that is, adding all my fellow countrymen to my friends list. But that doesn't seem too practical. What do you think?

Recently a online judge has been made public named LIGHTOJ created by JANE ALAM JAN ( acm icpc world finalist ). It is still under development but it looks like a good place for beginners to start their journey. All Problems here are categorized. Also has a good looking interface. It has built in online compiler that supports C, C++, PYTHON, PASCAL, JAVA. The site has built in forum and chat rooms. The facility of virtual contest is also there. Virtual contests can be arranged with your own problem set. The interface might look a bit overwhelming at first.  If you are interested, you can check it out. J

P.S. Please provide your full name and institution when you register.
