I've been playing this game for a while and I really like it
But one thing that I don't like at all is how the elo rating system works for best-of-2 or 3 matches.
Many times I DREW against an opponent HIGHER rated than me and I still lost rating points when I should actually WIN points.
That's how elo works: If you draw against a stronger opponent, you either DON'T LOSE anything or you win a few points, but the elo rating system on this website as it is, it's simply laughable.
In this game, for instance, I was playing against someone almost 200 elo rating points higher rated than me, when I lost, that loss cost me -2, but her los cost her only -1 ? Like, what? How does it even make sense? It's a two games match, each game should be the same value =1 or 50%-50%.
She won one game, I won the other, that's A DRAW. And I should not be losing elo rating points for drawing against someone HIGHER rated than me.
