Regarding the ratings calculation used: is your rating at the beginning
of the game used - or the end? My rating can change quite a bit over
the period of a long game - and so can my opponents.

Chad, I'm almost certain it's your current rating. How the ratings are
calculated are in the FAQ section of the pop-up help files. I can't
remember whether it says specifically in the there whether it's the start
rating or current rating that gets used but from experience I'm fairly
sure it's current rating.

It's definitely the rating at the time the game ends that is used.
