Why did I just randomly lose 1300 puzzle rating points?

I was at 3000 why am I now at 1700... do you lose points if you don't play for a while?

It's all explained in this article.

Basically, there was massive ratings inflation in puzzles ratings. So they have tried to fix it and reran everyone's rating so everyone's new rating would be fixed.

Congrats everyone, we’ve been humbled

I was 2400

Now I'm 1600

Good, the old system felt kind-of illogical.

People will temporarily get mad for losing rating but quickly realise this is for the best.

it felt motivating

Hi, I have lost more than 500 points in Puzzles.

Я вдруг потерял по непонятной причине почти 1000 единиц рейтинга: 8 октября было 3043, а после правильного решения первой же задачи 9 октября стало 2052. И это не только у меня, жалуются и другие участники.Что на сайте творится?
