How does Selfscovery decide which result is the best match?

Question

Accepted Answer

How Selfscovery scores and orders results.
When someone finishes, Selfscovery looks at the answers they actually chose on the questions they passed through:
1. Required rules remove results first (see Matching rules).
2. Each weighted feature adds answer weight × the result’s weight for that feature.
3. A direct result link adds answer weight × 10 to that result.
4. Locations add a distance bonus.
Results are listed from the highest score down, with the Top match first. Ties keep the order of results in your quiz.
Example: “Apartment” gives Quiet +8. A Cajon with Quiet +6 scores 48; a Drum set with Quiet −5 scores −40.
