ELO and changes Underway at SimplyBG 2023
#6
Lazy quiet evening thoughts:
While I read comments on ELOs I'm not too bothered by the subject. Occasionally try to understand what the experts discuss but mostly prefer to laugh about it all.

First came across it when I joined here and thought, 'well, it seems to make good sense' and it definitely did, but I didn't much try to analyse how it worked. Trusted it showed a combination of each player's ability, experience and luck! of course, over a certain span of time/# of games.

I started at 1500, like every other starter, dived to 1200 within 2 weeks, then creeped up to 1400 over 2 years and happily(?) live there now.

But lately I am surprised to invite someone who shows a low 1500's on the Openplay parlour and once the match starts they appear as mid 1600's. Does seem odd, though I'm sure there's proper science behind this. Meanwhile, I only see one number for me and it seems to move normally as it always has.

There must be a percentage of us fans that aren't so worried about being able to see ELOs of different types of game because 98.5% of the time we play the same game, in my case 7pt.
