Method changelog
Updated
This page lists every published version of the BonusPick method, newest first. Each entry says what changed, why, and which values it affects. A new version is created by the method owner role, re-tested with the full test set using the new parameters and approved by a separate check role before it is published; both roles are automated. Offers are then valued again; until the new value is ready, a card keeps showing the method version its value came from.
Changes to a market's value threshold do not need a new simulation, but they are listed here with their date as well, because they can change a verdict.
Version 1.0.0
First published method. It values welcome deposit bonuses, no-deposit bonuses, no-deposit free spins, deposit spins, wager-free bonuses and spins, bet-and-get offers, sports deposit bonuses and first-bet refunds for a typical player. Values come from formulas where an exact answer exists and from a simulation of at least 10,000 typical players otherwise. Thresholds for the verdict, the score weights and every typical-player assumption are listed on the method page and are calibrated during the first 90 days; each later change gets its own dated entry here.
