I had an idea: I suggest adding a bonus to the rating calculation for players who upload save files (either before a battle or intermediate saves).

You always come up with something... :)

The winning player receives a 10% bonus to the rating earned as a result of the victory for including daily saves or saves before the battle in the report (about 5 bonus points). If both types of saves are included, the bonus is 15% of the earned rating.

I understand that, but I don't quite agree with this:

The same applies to the losing player. The rating loss as a result of the defeat is reduced by 10% if one type of save is included, and by 15% if both types are included.

Why reduce the rating loss as a result of defeat when a save is included? And what about when no save is included? I agree with the current system when no save is included, but I don't see the point in doing this with a save – it will only "discourage" players.

Maybe it should be the other way around: if a player loses but still uploads a save, they get a bonus in the form of a percentage of their rating... – that would be an incentive :).

In any case, uploading saves is not mandatory for the game to be included in the rating.

Yes, but you can definitely encourage save uploads with the rules ;)
