[PROPOSAL]: Make round unrated in case of negative feedback
By Troll1, history, 22 months ago, In English

If the announcement of the contest gets a certain number of downvotes (say -300?) , lets make the contest unrated!!!
Lol ok maybe people can just spam with downvotes in case their round did not go well, but still -300 should be a large enough threshold...no??
Let me know what you think. It has happened in the last few months that the round quality was genuinely was weird (copied problems, stupid tests, or just stupid problems in general). In some cases the round was declared unrated. And since codeforces does not have an unregister button yet like atcoder, maybe this feature will be useful

Okay, so next time to make the round unrated, I'll say all my friends to downvote. Do you think is that how it works?

      That's what I am trying to say, spamming is feasible everytime, that doesn't imply making the round unrated after announcing publicly.

Every contest is good for some people and bad for some.

Many people downvote an announcement because of the reasons that are not a reasons to make a contest unrated.
