>What was it, though? It was a part of our algorithm that considered how others engaged with your profile. ... this part of our algorithm compared Likes and Nopes, and was utilized to show you potential matches who may be a fit for you, based on similarities in the way others would engage with profiles. Based on those profile ratings you received, there was a “score” — in the sense that it was represented with a numeric value in our systems so that it could factor into the other facets in our algorithm.

Its not a deep description at all, but it sounds like when someone viewing your profile is treated as a game, which way they swipe is a win or loss for you and your change in score depends on their score as well? Basically if a desirable person swipes right on your average profile, its indicating you are desirable and moves you up more than say the inverse scenario where an average profile swipes right on a desirable profile (I guess this would be akin to a low ranked player losing to a high ranked player). Edit: I guess the outcome would be people of equal (as perceived by others) attractiveness being matched.
