What are Ranks based off of?

[PurpleMangoes]

I'm pretty new and this is my first post so I guess I'm a Newbie. Hi. :I

I'm trying to get my rank into the top 100,000, and I can't tell, what are they based off of? I'm assuming it's based off my "total", but... I'm not entirely sure what "Total" that is. Is that my total number of points collected? Collective total of high scores?

Overall rank is based on how much GTS you have and where that score sits in the grand scheme of things.

Average rank is determined by the ranks added together you get on songs divided by the number of songs in the game (p.sure that's what it is)

Grand total score. The sum of all your scores on the songs you've played. And it does count scores on songs even if they're not your best score. So really it's a matter of how much you've played.
