How does the effect of a board or a session that I play today diminish over a period of time?

0

The speed at which the effect of a past session diminishes will depend on how often and how many boards that you play every week or every month. The more you play, the faster it diminishes. The figures for the formula were selected such that for a reasonably, but not extremely, active player playing 416 qualifying boards in a three month period an effect of halving-every-three-months would hold true. Thus the effect of a bad session would halve after 3 months and be a quarter after 6 months and be a sixteenth after a year and so what happens today has 16 times as much effect on your PPI as what happened a year ago, or 1024 times as much effect as what happened two and a half years ago. The effect of a bad session never goes absolutely to nothing but does tend towards zero fairly quickly.
