Div. 3 problems are basically Div. 2 problems

Revision en1, by nomoreplayer, 2021-12-21 17:25:56

In the recent Div. 3 contest there were 8 problems. 3 problems were rated >= 2000.

Why you think it's reasonable to have so many +2000 problems in Div. 3 contest?

Even if contestants have maximum rating 1900 and they ended up having -200 or -300 it's still not good enough reason for so many problems above 1900. I suggest to limit all problems just to below 1800 +- 200. I think the maximum focus for Div. 3 problems should be for those rated newbie-1500 +-300. For example 2 problems 800-900, two problems 1000-1200, and two problems 1200-1500. Maybe one problem is 1500-1800. Otherwise now the only difference between Div.2 and Div. 3 contest is just one more easy problem.

Thanks.
