Zwift Racing Score Update [October 29 2024]

I’m not thinking about the system, I’m thinking about the desired outcome. The system can define “results” in many different ways, and zwift have said that field quality does matter (but not how or how much).

It surely isn’t the desired outcome to promote someone out of a pen if they finish 18/40 30 times in a row. Their ZRS should really be around the middle of the category band… I don’t know if the ZRS system would do that or not…

The faq says this on your first question :
You’ve set a new, higher, floor value for your Racing Score after this race.

The second question is easy. We can not see our seed score.

Can you already tell us when these changes are going live ? It has been awefully quiet from Zwift after this announcement and a lot of riders are waiting for these changes.

The first part, it’s been raised before. The scores get reprocessed 12 hours later and the cumulative totals work properly then.

The second part about points races, these are not meant to impact your ZRS, other than power based seed/floor changes. But many events seem to be misconfigured and are changing ZRS when they shouldn’t.

by the looks of it, and i’m only sampling our F365 faces here which had FAL and FTS, it seems to be based on result of the actual race without any points, zwift have said that points races can be problematic with ZRS

I will check my score later after our race and update this

Force it for all ZRS events.

There are are too many organisers some not as familiar with ZP or just hard to contact to get them to update their events. I’m still seeing posts this week for riders getting DQs across various events.

ps when are these changes announced coming?

The changes to ZwiftPower were deployed yesterday, so any new events coming in should have WKG enforcement disabled unless race organizers manually enable it.

I can’t seem to get a score and I ride most days?

@Jane_Fairbairn are you riding or racing?

Can you race if you don’t have a score?

Doing workouts mainly, some races

@Jane_Fairbairn score is mainly in racing, or if you do hard 30 sec PR 90 days or hard 10 min with your score go up.
