Question about percentile rank

Hey everyone. I’ve only been on SH for four days and have entered almost 30 contests (this site is SO addictive). I have a question: I just received my first percentile rank and am very happy with it, but moving forward should I be withdrawing ‘no, thank you’ entries so they don’t affect my score? What are best practices here?

Thanks!

Sam

Welcome to SH! Withdrawing no thank yous does not change your score and I would recommend not withdrawing them because sometimes CHs change their minds. If your no thank yous are upgraded, your score can improve but once you have a no thank you, it has already impacted your score.

Thanks for the quick reply, and for clarifying how the system works! :blush:
