Hi there!
Is it possible to know the criterias used to rank the game servers? The average amount of player doesn't seem to be the only criteria as some say 24 slot servers get a better ranking than more populated 32 slot servers.
If the formula was different between all games, i'm interested in the Medal of Honor Spearhed ranking laws.
Thanks for your enlightment.

Hello lebabouin,

The average number of players is a general indicator you can use to determine approximately where you are in relation to other servers. This number is based from the past month. However, if the server has not been on the site for a month, it will only create an average for the number of days it has been on the site.

So, a server can have an average of 30 players for 30 days and a new server can also have an average of 30 players for the first 5 days it is on the site. Obviously though, these servers are not the same.

Rank is also considered on a monthly basis. This is based on the trend in your server's popularity (eg. trend in average players). There is extra consideration towards activity in the past week or so, so that only servers that are currently active are in the top ranks.

In summary, rank is based on the popularity of the server over the past month, with extra consideration for recent activity.
