Originally posted by joe shmoWhat you describe applies to a non-provisional player playing against a provisional player. If your rating is still provisional, the rating change is calculated in an entirely different way.
also, as a provisional you are only recieving half the points each time you win, as you would have as a non-provisional...so hang in there little buddy. 😉 Plus, you can find out anything you want to about rating calulation in the FAQ section of the Help submenu.

Originally posted by ArrakYour rating is perfectly fine where it is (for now). If you think you should be rated 1600, play higher rated players and win. Your rating isn't going up if you lose to low rated players, and won't go up if you keep beating sub 1200's.
it says that you'll get your correct rating after you've completed 20 games. but my record is 15-4 and im only rated 1405. how many games does it actually take to get your correct rating?
I see nothing wrong with your rating at high 1300's. Prove it should be higher by actually beating players rated 1400+.
