My recent contest got completely screwed up. I am wondering by how much would my rating fall. A question pops up in my mind.

What is the largest fall in codeforces rating(in a single contest) that someone may have experienced. I tried to google it but no help. If you have experienced , or know someone who has experienced a great rating fall, please comment.

    I think a better example would be dreamoon_love_AA, also on page 123(rank 2454). I think he is an ex-target.

      I feel he is doing this on purpose. He wants to make his graph look interesting.

            24 wrong hacks. Seems like he was not in a mood to compete today.

            Or he was hell-bent to find a bug otu of a correct code.

              He also seemed to direct his hacks on one contestant too :)

It seems to me that rating growth in mixed div1+div2 rounds are more impressive than rating falls

Actually the maximum rating fall is of fukirk in this contest, while the maximum rating rise is of ztxzl6 in this round.

Note that this does not include the last 5 contests. I had parsed all these data in my database a while ago to display other stats as well, but then I got busy recently.

      First-time participants shouldn't be present in this statistic, high chances for them to be somebody's clone and their initial rating is taken as 1500 so they can jump high for the first time easily.
