A visual guide to the different Score Methods

← Score Collection, Entries & Metrics
Score Methods are the different ways of totalling up a metric and determine how data entries will be summarised for each player:

Sum

Sum will sum all scores during the scoring period (Default)

Sum - ignore period


Sum - ignore period - will sum all data entries ever stored

Sum - difference


Sum - Difference - will return the difference between the sum of data entries for this period with the sum of data entries for the previous period

Latest


Latest will use the most recent score entry in the current period

Latest - ignore period


Latest - ignore period will use the most recent score entry no matter when it was scored

Latest - difference

Latest - Difference will take the difference between the last score entry of the previous period and the most recent score entry for the current period.


Highest Score in Period


Highest Score in Period will take only the highest score as the entry for the period.

Lowest Score in Period


Lowest Score in Period will take only the lowest score as the entry for the period.

Average Score in Period

Average Score in Period will take the mean of all data entries for the period



Note that the "ignore period" score methods also affects the 92 day data entry deletion rule and will mean that data entries are not deleted after the 92 day data storage period expires.
