On-line rating (discussion)

Moreover, the difference between the first, second, third place, etc., should be greater than 100 points.

I agree with this. I chose the numbers almost without thinking. But that's why we're discussing all of this now. I would like everyone to be motivated, because, as I said, not every player will be in the top three in the Tournaments, so I suggested rewarding the top three, five, or ten, depending on the number of participants in the Tournament! Let's seriously consider this point, because it will be included in the rules for the NEXT season, which will start very soon! Ideally, it would be good to come up with a formula. Dirty's formula is not bad; maybe we can improve it with coefficients.

I suggest judging the number of points based on the composition of players in the Tournament and making a decision about the score based on that.

Again, this will be a subjective opinion, and there will be a lot of confusion, disputes, misunderstandings, etc. Some people consider one player to be strong, and others consider another. How will you then decide how to award prizes? For example, I might say that the composition of this Tournament is not the strongest, and not many points should be awarded. Another person will object and say: what are you talking about? Look at the players who are playing!)) It is better to write all of this down on paper in advance. As one great mind said: "The more paperwork, the cleaner the rear." The conversation about prestigious, inter-forum, intercontinental Tournaments is a separate matter, and we will need to talk with the organizers, as well as competent and authoritative players, about the prize amount separately before the start of the Tournament. But we are currently discussing ordinary ranked games, which we want to establish with the help of the players themselves. Although the players themselves are not particularly eager to help! But when we introduce a Solomon-like formula, there will be talk behind our backs, and rotten tomatoes will be thrown. They will say that our opinion was not taken into account, that all of this is nonsense, and that it should have been done this way or that way. Okay, we will manage on our own. At the moment, in essence, only a couple of people have expressed their opinion, and one of them is an offline player.
I asked many authoritative players in ICQ to express their opinion and provide useful advice. But some did not even bother to reply, let alone offer useful advice. Well, so be it!
