A question for the staff about rating...

Before the rating algorithm was updates i gave a few wrong answers to a to combinatorics problem and my rating went down and I got demoted to Level 4.....A few days later I solved and wrote solutions for 2 unrated combinatorics problems and the very next day i found that they had received a level 5 rating.... So is there any chance that all the people who solve a problem before it is rated will get the points and ratings that they deserve???

This discussion board is a place to discuss our Daily Challenges and the math and science related to those challenges. Explanations are more than just a solution — they should explain the steps and thinking strategies that you used to obtain the solution. Comments should further the discussion of math and science.

When posting on Brilliant:

Use the emojis to react to an explanation, whether you're congratulating a job well done , or just really confused .
Ask specific questions about the challenge or the steps in somebody's explanation. Well-posed questions can add a lot to the discussion, but posting "I don't understand!" doesn't help anyone.
Try to contribute something new to the discussion, whether it is an extension, generalization or other idea related to the challenge.
Stay on topic — we're all here to learn more about math and science, not to hear about your favorite get-rich-quick scheme or current world events.

I agree with you..

Your ratings are only updated at the point when you submit an answer. What happens subsequently has no effect on your rating.

But if the problem is unrated then there's no changes in the rating right???Even if the problem gets rated after one solves it???

Eddie The Head - 7 years, 2 months ago

If the problem is unrated, your rating will not change whether you get it correct or wrong.

As mentioned, subsequent events do not matter.

@Calvin Lin – But don't you think that thats bad?

Snehal Shekatkar - 7 years, 2 months ago

@Calvin Lin – Sir,So is it better to wait until the problem is rated before submitting an answer???

Eddie The Head - 7 years, 2 months ago

@Eddie The Head – In other words, is it better to solve only the rated questions?
