+### Time-based boost decay
+
+Some competitions have time-based boost decay enabled. When enabled, the value of boosts decreases
+as time progresses. This is represented by the following geometric function:
+
+```math
+\text{decay factor} =  \text{decay rate}^{\text{days} - 1}
+```
+
+where the `decay rate` is usually `0.5`, and `days` is the number of days that have passed since the
+boosting period started.
+
+Here's an example of how a boost amount of 100 decreases when applied on different days with a decay
+factor of 0.5.
+
+| Day | Decay factor | Effective boost (100 base) |
+| --- | ------------ | -------------------------- |
+| 1   | 1            | 100                        |
+| 2   | 0.5          | 50                         |
+| 3   | 0.25         | 25                         |
