If I don't become the legendary grandmaster before the new year, I’ll dye my hair pink for a week.

I know this question is classical but how exactly do you get so fast so good in informatics? Of course by working hard, but every some months you change your color and not from blue to purple, but from red to reder. :D

      SO you're telling me that 3 years is like a lot of time to get to 2900? :D Literally 99% of the people get to maximum purple in 3 years.

        Wtf? Is there any way not to become purple in 3 years if you are really trying to become better in CP? And there is a big chance that you won't be purple if you are really trying hard

          Ok most of you don't see what i meant exactly. Yes you get to purple in 3 years of cp but he got to almost legendary. It is a very big deal and i am really curious of his method of training.

              Hahah probably. But it's also possible that he stumbled upon the best problem set called " Problem set that will get you to legendary in 3 years for sure".

                Yeah, it's called codeforces problemset. Stop searching for myths and just practice .-.

                And remember that there is no linear correation between your CP skills and your CF rating. CF rating is just about taking part in a lot of contests

                  I'm having a hard time believing that given sufficient number of participations. In fact it might even hurt your rating if you aren't improving while still doing a lot of contests. See https://codeforces.com/blog/entry/62024

You are such a brave man! But not as RVyrodov. Last year he said he would cut off all of his hair if he would get a silver or a gold medal in Belarus republic olympiad, and actually he got it!

    I personally prefer to have 300iq's hair dyed at the week of All-Russian Olympiad in Informatics. In that case I even would love to donate him a Pinkie Pie plastic toy.
