SEASON 2 HAS STARTED

SEASON 2 HAS STARTED

**DKS Skill Rating Rankings Season 2 --- MAJOR BUG FIXED**
-There was a bug that was incorrectly adding SR points instead of subtracting SR points when SR was supposed to be subtracted.
-The bug caused extremely high scores to show on the leaderboard (scores that weren't actually possible, but the bug made possible because instead of SR points being deducted they were being added)
-This bug has been fixed and rankings have been re calculated. The score board is correct now.
How is SR Calculated?
- There are many things that are taken into consideration for SR calculation. We cannot reveal every factor or the entire algorithm to prevent abuse attempts, but we will describe most of it.on.
- Factors Considered:
- These factors have been tweaked for season 2.
- Season 2 Specific Changes
  - SR scores are now calculated on a per-match basis. In S1, SR was taken by considering all matches at the same time. In S2, each match is processed individually.
  - New Factors (for Season 2)
    - KilledRepeatCount - the # of times a certain player has killed another certain player compared to the normalized variance. This means it's actually good to play against different people, including your own guild. Killing the same person over and over = less SR.
    - TeamSimilarityScore - To prevent any incentive of attempting to "pick" what team people end up on, a team similarity score has been added to each match. If the score is high, it means your team had a number of the same people than what we would expect with a randomized, normal distribution. If this is the case, you could receive less SR for the match. We will adjust this as needed.
    - IndividualPerformance - this is a composite score of your individual performance. It is used for two things.
      
      IndividualPerformance vs. Team - This compares your individual performance to that of your team. This means that if you are doing well, even if your team is not doing well, your SR will not be affected negatively and could even increase.
      
      IndividualPerformance vs. Match- This compares your individual performance to that of the entire match.

IMPORTANT: GUILD MEMBER LOCK
- Characters will be locked to the guilds 24hrs after season start.
