“Summer 2013” experimental season. Online ranked games (reports, discussions).

I'll drop everything and start looking for dates right now.

Actually, the order in which reports are recorded can significantly affect the outcome, especially for the seasonal ranking; this is less noticeable for the permanent ranking. This is one of the reasons why the date is a mandatory requirement in a report.
At the beginning of the season, everyone starts with 1500. Over time, the higher the opponent's rating, the more points are awarded for a win and the fewer points are deducted for a loss. The difference can be 10 or even more points.

Judging by darkello's interest, he will gladly search for dates in the Diamond Monster tournament.
If he doesn't find the time, I will count everything as one date.

question for Pit, when will the rating be recalculated?

I think it will be as usual, nothing new is expected. You can see this in past seasons, in the history. They will recalculate it when they have time, and when they resolve all issues with the players. The calculation and final results of the season, from start to finish, require a total of approximately 25 hours of pure time.

Does anyone know how to draw small pictures? Please send me a message on ICQ, I have an idea.
