Chaning ELO calcualtion in case of player leaving (draw between others)

Post by MasterMystery »

Players leaving or being kicked due to time happens more frequently and then i realized the following:

Every other player gets elo based on a WIN vs the player leaving,

Against each-other the other players gain a draw, which actually means that the higher elo player will loose elo regarding this.
Is there any option to simply implement that there is no result among those players or no impact on elo, it just sucks if one player leaves and then the higher players actually loose elo cause they draw the rest.

I agree, if more than 2 players are playing and someone quits, every other player should be scored a win vs the quitter, with no other outcomes between anyone else.
