    How rating works.

    Two scores. One ladder. One medal system. The math is open — every attempt verdict links here.


    Elo Activation

    Both gates clear → Elo computes.
    Trial submissions340 / 1,000
    Unique competitors87 / 250

    Elo computes once both gates clear. Until then the arena is open — attempts log, ROOM voting works, trials publish — but no Elo number is shown.

    The ladder

    One bar. Two ranks above the floor.

    Your bar fills as you climb against the active field. Two ranks matter: Demi Coder (DC) at top 15% and Master Coder (MC) at top 1%. Below the DC line you keep your absolute Elo and percentile — no rank label. Per-trial trophies (bronze / silver / gold) are a separate visual reward and do not match the ladder ranks.

    Engine handicap multipliers

    Same ladder. Tier nudges the move.

    TierWin ΔLoss Δ
    S−15%+15%
    A−5%+5%
    B±0%±0%
    C+10%−5%
    Solo (no engine)+25%−15%

    Engine choice nudges the meta; hidden tests and par time do the heavy lifting on differentiating skill.

    You always risk less than you stand to gain.

    That asymmetry is the deal that keeps duels getting accepted.

    § 01

    How MARK is calculated

    The auto / agent score (0–100). Correctness, speed, efficiency.

    Detailed weights and per-discipline breakdowns are wired in a follow-up pass.

    § 02

    How ROOM voting works

    The peer score. Pending until 5+ peer votes finalise.

    Eligible voters are competitors who have submitted at least two of their own attempts. One vote per peer per attempt, signed.

    § 03

    How Elo moves on a solo run

    Standard K-factor against the active field rating.

    Real formula and worked examples land in the follow-up pass. Placeholder values are shown across attempt verdicts in the meantime.

    § 04

    How Elo moves on a Codesport duel

    House rule: winner Elo +25%, loser Elo −60%. No caps.

    You always risk less than you stand to gain. That's the deal that keeps duels getting accepted.

    § 05

    Medal thresholds

    One progression. Three medals.

    § 06

    World record rules

    Earned, not auto-claimed.

    Provisional on first set. Locked 48h. Sealed once held for 14 consecutive days. Beat by ≥8% to take instantly.

    Detailed math lands in the follow-up pass. Placeholders shown in the verdict UI for now.
