Hello Everyone,

Are the seeds for the contests on CF-Predictor calculated correctly?

On a recent contest: many users (such as me) ended up getting negative delta even though we got a lower rank than our seed (meaning we did better than "expected"), which is contradictory.

Does CF-Predictor calculate the seeds based on registered participants and not those who actually took the contest (thus making it a bit inaccurate) or are rating changes a bit off for codeforces?

    the average delta in div2 is still negative overall (it was also around -10 last time I checked), it is just because of the initial rating gains that make it look positive.

    Oh wow, didn't know that. Did you find this out by looking at past data or was there a post somewhere? As far as I know the last rating explanation post was made like 5 years ago.

      Just run this and input contestID

      import codeforces_api
      API = "https://codeforces.com/api/"
      cf_api = codeforces_api.CodeforcesApi()
      contestid = int(input())
      ratingchanges = cf_api.contest_rating_changes(contestid)["result"]
      totaldelta = 0
      for ratingchange in ratingchanges:
          newrating = ratingchange["newRating"]
          oldrating = ratingchange["oldRating"]
          totaldelta+=newrating-oldrating
      print(totaldelta)
      print(totaldelta/len(ratingchanges))
