For those who are confused: go is a board game (see my much previous blog) and kgs has rankings. If you lose to someone, and then win vs good players, that first guy you lost to receives credit for being better than you after you beat the good players.... so rank can jump around a lot. | ||

Or is it just your first opponent? Edit: And doesn't that mean that one single game could potentially change the stats of thousands of users? | ||

Or is it just your first opponent? Edit: And doesn't that mean that one single game could potentially change the stats of thousands of users? Isn't this more or less how ELO works? Regardless, I think the effect of earlier games slowly wanes, so it isn't a big deal in the long run. | ||

But I think it also keeps track of your history. If you win against someone on day one who had a 2000 elo, and then he wins straight to 2300, I think you benefit slightly. | ||

Nope, not a typical ELO. | ||
