Stopping to calculate Elo and TrueSkill. Will use SLDBs values (see http://springrts.com/phpbb/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=17130&start=440#p536862):

(quoting bibim:) Basically, the inactivity penalties are applied each month to all high-skill with low uncertainty players who almost didn't play in the month. These penalties are quite light however, because the goal is not to really penalize them but actualy modelize their lost of skill and the increase of their skill uncertainty. Players recovering from inactivity periods should be able to recover their original rating quite fast thanks to this uncertainty increase. This system also prevents old inactive players to stay in the top part of the leaderboards, while not playing anymore.
