For a given problem, is it possible to check the rating of the problem without looking at the tags? It will be helpful as most of the times, I do not want to look at the tags while solving the problem (could give out a hint on the right approach). But it is helpful to look at the rating as I would not want to spend a lot of time on a problem which is much harder (or much easier) than what I expect to solve in reasonable amount of time.

MikeMirzayanov Please look into this. I think many others are also affected. One of my submissions shows 'judgement failed' verdict during the virtual contest that I was doing and another one is in queue.

Update: Works now. Thanks!
