A lot of players would like to know precisely which factors affect rank-skipping and to what priority each is assigned.

Is anyone interested in contributing data (with picture proof a mandatory requirement) to a large data pool? This would help us by having concrete evidence from which to draw any conclusions from.

I wanted to make this a thread for data submissions, but usually people don’t want to do any work so the thread just dies. I’d rather gauge interest before starting such a project.

Late reply after liking this, heh. Didn't have the time to write.

So, I really like the idea of a "data" collection regarding rank skips and I would happily contribute to it. I even played some Splat Zones the other day and filled the S+ bar twice while writing down the results as the tries looked promising, atleast expecting to skip numbers once but it didn't happen. A story I'd tell in the respective thread with the data I collected just for this.

But before you open up anything like this, don't be fooled that all we'll ever have is speculation. The data collected could only help getting closer to the actual truths, but it still will be speculation. Not as vague, but still speculation. Because it seems Nintendo has no interest in telling us how rank skips work.

Lastly, we'd need enough people to contribute, of course. Atleast 10 people, frequently writing about their skipping/non skipping. And that will be hard to get together.
