How Does the SolveFire Ranking system work?
We have decided to change the ranking system. With this new system, users will need to score at least a 7/10 on a contest to rank up. The ranking that the user has is calculated as follows:
score * 1000 + index
The index values based on a user's level are:
Iron:0
Bronze:700
Silver:1400
Gold:2100
Platinum:2800
Diamond:3500
Emerald:4200
Sapphire:4900
Unreal:5600
For example, if a user is ranked at 1000 and scores 6/10 on their contest, their ranking will be 1300 because 0.6 * 1000 + 700 = 1300.
As soon as your calculated value surpasses the index for the next level, you rank up.
If your calculated value is less than your current value, then the rankings will be averaged.
