Methodology — The Redistribution Rule

What happens when a test is missing.

Most tools either treat a missing test as a zero or quietly average only what's there. Both approaches punish or flatter a player depending on what they happened to test that week. Vantic does neither.

Zero-filled

Missing Speed test scored as 0 — APS 51

Redistributed

Weight moves to the other 4 pillars — APS 73

The problem with the usual approaches

Zero-filling a missing test drags a player's score down for something that isn't a real result — it's an absence. Silently averaging only the pillars that were tested has the opposite problem: it can flatter a player whose weakest pillar just happens to be the one that got skipped. Neither reflects what actually happened.

How redistribution works

If a player is missing a pillar entirely — no Speed test logged this cycle, say — that pillar's weight doesn't vanish and doesn't get treated as a zero. It gets redistributed across the pillars that do have data, scaled back up so the weights still total 100%. The score that comes out reflects what was actually measured, proportionally, rather than being distorted by what wasn't.

An incomplete battery isn't a broken score

This is the distinction the rule is built around: a player missing one test out of five has an incomplete test battery, not a broken score. The number they end up with is still a fair read on what was measured — it just doesn't pretend to know something nobody actually tested.
