Can Reno get out of boots? Or will he cement his 'soft boot king' status by adding another one to his tally? Exciting times...

Hey Martin, I am glad to be a best match with people
But what does that mean
Sorry for being dumb

No worries. Every user's list is compared against every other user's list, and by compared I mean their character ranks are subtracted against one another. So if you have Garnet #1 and I have her #6, we have a difference of 5 for her. This comparison gets done for all 15 characters. Then the "standard deviation" is taken on all 15 of the character difference numbers (as I mentioned before, not even sure this is the right formula to use in this case but whatever, that's how it was done) to arrive at a single number.

So when you're the "best match" for a user that means, out of the other 45 participants excluding themself, your list produced the lowest standard deviation when compared against their list, hence, best match.

I don't know what it means. i like to think it means you have a good list!
