The Ratings Committee has recommended that the bonus threshold be lowered from 14 to 12, the first change in the bonus factor since 2017. We are implementing this recommendation on Monday, October 30th, 2023.
This change will be retroactive to events that ended on or after February 1st, 2023, and all affected events will be included in next week’s rerate, though it may take a day or longer for all those updated ratings to be posted to MSA.
Lowering the bonus threshold means that it is easier to earn bonus points, so members may see some increases in their rating for events that ended on or after February 1, 2023.
