What exactly are you trying to figure out? The algorithm? I know one thing, it completely changes when you go gold. My buddy has it and its an absolute game changer. He's getting several high end matches a day and seeing people I didn't even know existed. All I see are like 4's and under I swear. It's total pay to play at this point.
And I'm in sigma chi. |
Ooooooh data point alert
It does change when you pay them, clearly, but I want to see the effect of it. Tinder calculates your swipe to match ratio, and unless you're very, very selective (10% match rate signals you are either a greek god or you're very selective) you don't see hot chicks to say the least.
I want to examine the effects of artificially inflating numbers. It seemingly worked, but I can't give any quantitative data on it so I can't also recommend it. I don't know how many profiles I swiped left on, primarily because seems Tinder has a monthly limit on data requests (which is slightly illegal per GDPR but idk about america), but once I figure that out I should be able to give you a better answer.
Because this would effectively mean you run a command, inflate your left swipes and your match ratio, system thinks you're "hotter" so you see hotter chicks and you match if your pics and bio complement the "league" tinder puts you in.
Setting a new location also boosts your profile so you run out of likes and buy the plus/gold faster. You can also see 10 of your most liked, if a match liked you before you liked her, her instagram pictures etc there's actually a scary amount of data that Tinder collects on you for either no reason or their algorithm is much more complicated than I can ever grasp as a civil engineer.
If I asked you to pull your stats and your boy's stats and send them would I be asking too much?
This goes out to anyone who'd love to help me out with my pseudo-research
