Shortly after William Lin Fan Club was founded ( https://codeforces.com/ratings/organization/20327 ), substantial improvements of mutiple members of the clubs have been noticed

  • dorijanlendvaj, getting +198 by plaincg 4th in Codeforces Round #594 (Div. 1)

  • gamegame, getting +152 by placing 6th in Codeforces Round #586 (Div. 1 + Div. 2)

  • nikolapesic2802, getting 2 consecutive +101 by placing 44th in Codeforces Round #588 (Div. 1) and 45th Codeforces Global Round 5

  • fivedemands, getting +162 by placing 17th in Codeforces Global Round 5

I wonder what might be the possible reasons of this phenomenon. What do you think?

Seems like the next biggest sensation for boosting ratings after Twice.

    Twice and this fan-club are related.

    Remember that tmw is the one who introduced Twice in CP

This blog is full of BS. Many of the members in this so-called "Fan Club" have also dropped in rating from Codeforces Round #594 (Div. 1).

There could list out many more examples, the four examples above are from one contest alone.

Not to mention, fivedemands is an alt of a high-rated (2750+) CodeForces member, so getting a high positive rating change is expected.

I attribute all the success to joining the club.

Well, I also improved when I joined a fan club, but it's Ildar Gainullin fun-club:

+144 by placing 32nd in Codeforces Round #588 (Div. 1). 300iq orz.

Also ismagilov.code gained +84 taking place 71 in Codeforces Global Round 5, but it seems that he's in the fun-club for some time, so the effect is not that explicit.

P.S. hmm, are you a fan of yourself?
