ELO computation

Post by Myosotis Arae »

Hello,
I thought that the points earned, the "Total ELO variation", was obtained by adding the scores of each duel. But I just won against 2 other players and obtained 8.43 points against the second and 5.69 against the third, though the total was only 10.59. I lost 25% of the points.
Does someone know how this total is really computed ?

Bonjour,
Je pensais que les points gagnés, le Total ELO variation", était obtenu en additionnant les scores de chaque duel. Mais je viens juste de gagner contre 2 autres joueurs en obtenant 8.43 points contre le second et 5.69 contre le troisième, ne marquant pourtant que 10.59 points, soit 25% de moins que la somme des deux.
Quelqu'un sait-il comment ce total est réellement calculé ?

In multiplayer games rating gain/loss is adjusted according to the number of participants and recommended player number of the game.
If you feel official explanation from FAQ is not clear enough please read and upvote this suggestion :)
