ELO Rating Calculation

Post by IfUWant2Know »

Does anyone know how the ELO Rating is calculated?

I was playing a game of Bubblee Pop. My opponent had a rating of 195. My rating was 137. I am not exactly certain how ratings are calculated, but I lost the game and my rating went down -25 points, while my opponent only gained +8. I do not understand why a lower rated player would lose 3 times as many points as the higher rated player gains, unless the time penalty also affects ELO somehow.

The first 10 games has a ELO change multiplier of 3, and the next 10 has a multiplier of 2.
