On-line rating (discussion)

1. Points should definitely be deducted for losses; otherwise, it will become a cumulative system where the person with more free time, and therefore more games played, will simply have a higher chance of becoming the leader. IMO.
2. A fixed number of points should be added or subtracted for a win/loss.
3. And then, based on the results of a certain period, a bonus/penalty should be awarded to everyone according to the results of the duels... let me explain:
That is, I propose that first, all participants be ranked (according to the points they have earned), and then, based on the rankings, a bonus be awarded.
P.S. IMO, with a bonus system, this is more rational, because, for example, during the first matches, everyone has the same rating, and it is unclear what to do with the bonus!
I am more interested in these points:
1. Will the number of games be limited, and if so, how?
2. The obligation to play with all participants and the scheme for the sequence of choosing an opponent.

I forgot to add that the "speed" of winning against an opponent should either not be taken into account at all or be taken into account as a secondary factor (for example, when distributing places in case of a tie in points), but it should not affect the number of points/bonus in any way.
Otherwise, there will be a deliberate interest in delaying the defeat (even if it is inevitable).
