Last night I don’t want to sleep, so – I was working. I reread my old post "Contribution 2.0" (in Russian) and decided to implement some ideas. Taking into account the comments that everyone (no matter the color nor the position in the contribution) has the right to express their opinions in the form of pluses or minuses, I did not restrict users the opportunity to express opinion.

On the other hand, the rules of contribution changing depending on your votes have modified. Since we have already appeared bots, trolls and other vermin, I will not reveal details, but note that:

  • Contribution may change after some time after the processing of your vote - it is normal.
  • Not all your votes may be taken into account when calculating the contribution changing - this is also normal, we will defend ourselves from dirty tricks.
  • contribution slightly scaled - the numbers got bigger. Maybe it's nicer?

Just want to say that the bots usage, following the principles of "blood feuds," etc. serve as a reason for your disqualification. Do not tempt fate.

Soon, the problems coordinator, the user RAD will leave official lists of both contributions and rated, as he is active member of the Codeforces team.

I wish you high contribution

I am a relatively new member of codeforces. Until seeing this post today i couldn't figure out how the "contribution" thing works. What about making a page "how to contribute",and attach the link below contributors list?

(offtopic: also i couldn't find out how to add friends so that i can follow their ranking during contest).

Hi, I think I should be out of competition in Codeforces Beta Round #61 (Div. 2), but it seems that I and some other reds are treat as contestants (http://codeforces.me/contestRegistrants/66). Is it a bug due to recent update?

    Yeah, it's really strange! Some red guys are in competition but some blues are out of competition.However since 61st round blues would be "in".
