Setting it to zero is certainly not a good idea, but a number greater than 30, in my opinion, should not even be considered.
Next, I propose to calculate the rating of the players in the last tournament in a trio, where 21 people participated, and the winner completed the map in 10 days, and the outsider - in 69 days. Let's calculate according to your calculations:
Winner - 29194 points
Outsider - 865 points
Hence the questions:
1. This does not quite align with the general idea of the calculation, where the winner has 100 points, and the rest are calculated from him.
2. Suppose the winner completed the map in 1 day, and the outsider - in 1000 days. What changes?
Winner - 29194 points - the result did not change
Outsider - 858 points - decreased by 1%
Conclusion: the only significant parameter is the number of participants. The rest does not matter.
Why bother?
Or am I calculating it wrong?
