# Season

The **Season System** adds a new dynamic to the bot by resetting ranks every 60 days. Each season allows everyone to start fresh while rewarding members based on their final rank from the previous season.

> Seasons give all members a chance to shine again and climb the global leaderboard!

### Season Duration

* A season lasts up to **about 60 days**.
* At the end of each season, **all ranks are reset** across all servers.

### Rank Reset
