Elo Calculator Problem #3

Closed ghost closed 2 years ago

ghost commented 2 years ago

Hi Dav

I test Elo calculator program , it work well but one thing has forgotten

imagine a person that does not have until Elo rating , the 10 first games has high factor rating

for example , in Lichess if you won first game against 1900 , your Elo rating increase +700 , that amazing !!!!

That's because Lichess doesn't use Elo, they use Glicko 2 ratings More info here: https://lichess.org/page/rating-systems#:~:text=initial%20rating%20themselves.-,Lichess.org,-Lichess.org%20uses
