TrueSkill+ Recalibration & Dynamic Leaderboard Filters
We've just pushed a significant update to how player levels are calculated and how you view your progress over time. These changes are designed to make the ranking system more rewarding and the leaderboard more relevant to your recent performance.
π TrueSkill+ Recalibration
We heard your feedback! The top players were previously "stuck" around the 50-60 level mark. While the math was accurate, it didn't feel like a true reflection of a 0-100 scale.
- New Multiplier: We've adjusted the scaling factor from 2.0 to 3.33.
- What this means for you: If you were previously at Level 55, you'll likely see your level jump into the 80s or 90s.
- The Goal: This makes the 100 benchmark a more reachable and exciting target for our most elite players.
π Dynamic Leaderboard Filters
The "Week" and "Month" filters have been upgraded to rolling time windows.
- 7-Day & 30-Day Rolling: Instead of following the calendar, these now show your performance over the exact last 7 or 30 days.
- New 90-Day View: We've added a 90-day window to help you track your medium-term trends and consistency.
- Smart "Today" View: Our daily view remains "smart"βit shows today's games if they exist, otherwise it automatically shows yesterday's highlights.
π Persistent Fixture Scores
Previously, fixtures would disappear once a result was recorded. We've changed this to give you a better history of the session or tournament.
- Stay Visible: Completed fixtures now stay on the page and are highlighted in green.
- Score Display: Instead of the "Record Result" button, you'll now see the final score (e.g., 21-19) displayed directly on the match tile.
- Historical Access: Fixtures remain accessible even after a session is marked as "completed," so you can always go back and see the round-by-round pairings and results.
β‘ Performance & Accuracy
- Source of Truth: The Fixtures page now pulls results directly from the recorded game entry. If you substitute a player or swap teams during a game and record it that way, the tournament history will now accurately reflect those changes.
- Faster Load Times: We've implemented "Tiered Caching" for game data. The app now fetches small incremental updates instead of reloading every game ever played, making the whole experience faster as our community grows.
Keep playing, keep winning, and enjoy the new levels!
