The past round is unrated,I feel disappointed but I think unrated is the best decision.

So, why an Candidate Master can prepare problems after E? I think codeforces should set a limit.

I don't think so, it's ratism. It's not impossible for low-rated people to create hard problems.

    Why? Most of low-rated people can't solve hard problems by theirselves, so where do you think the solution will come from?

      From higher rated people that would help their great idea to flourish

      The correct form is "themselves" not "theirselves". If you want respect, you must look respectful.

      You also have some sort of idea of what the solution should be and what general ideas are useful, which can make finding the solutions easier.

    I also think that low-rated can create hard problems, though it's still true that low-rated are hard to estimate and manage the detail of the problem as they have a small amount of experience to solve similar difficulty problems.

    If div1 are redundant, setting a rate limit may be one measures, but...

Oh and yet how ludicrous. Seems to me that you will have the laugh of your life in ~4 months

    Also, I think it is appropriate to ping mejiamejia who authored 2-3 D1F original problems

      Yes, I came up with the idea of two problems with difficulty value of 3500, although the solution is not what I thought, so I think it is absurd to set the hard limit. However, maybe coordinators and testers should be more vigilant about copying problems and try to spot them before the contest, not after the contest.
