I wanted to raise the topic o new ELO calculations in Tichu. Right now, your rank is compared to all other players, including your partner. If that player has a higher rank than you, your rank increases, but if they have a lower ELO your rank decreases. However, it is not possible to win against your partner.
One solution would be for players who care much about their rank not to play with beginners, but I don't think that is a community friendly solution. Instead, is it somehow possible to just not include the ranking against your partner in the ELO calculations?
