Hi, if i remember correctly the formulae used for calculating how much
your rating changes by at the end of a game used to be on this site
somewhere. Is it still here?

Also, how do the RHP ratings relate to the ELO and BCF ratings?

Cheers,

Rich

Well, if you have a rating between 1250 and 1350 and your username is kyngj, that
means you have an ELO of 3000. As for everyone else, I'm really not sure...

So does that mean if you keep beating me and your rating goes
above 1350 your ELO will come back in line with the rest of us mere
mortals? 😀

Joe, if you fancy another game you will have to challenge me as you
are at your limit.

no, there is actually a special clause, that takes a moving average of my rating, which always
keeps me within those limits... I'll stop talking crap now, game is on its way!
