Rating and Rank

Instead of relying on fixed rating thresholds, rating colors are defined by your gaming skills (calculated by a specific algorithm called WHR, similar to ELO) expressed as a percentiles of the player base. Rating colors can only be gained or lost after holding one's position in the new percentile for multiple games.

Here is a list of the rating colors:

Icon	Color	Theme	Percentile
	Gamma ray	Singularity	Top 1%
	X ray	Neutron star	Top 5%
	Blue white	Supergiant	Top 10%
	Bright yellow	Giant	Top 20%
	Orange	Subgiant	Top 40%
	Red	Red dwarf	Top 60%
	Dark red	Brown dwarf	Top 80%
	Infrared	Nebula	Everyone

The rank level itself is defined by the accumulated total time spent in game.

Here is a list of the ranks, with color Orange:

The progress bar "Level XXX" shows your rank level. It is dependent on total time spent in game.

The progress bar below it shows your position with respect to the next cosmic object (in other words, how far you are to the next color, dependent on your gaming skills).
