Three years old bug report: Implemented ELO ranking system not adequate for team games

Post by ThomasGBDX »

There is a bug report for ELO and arena points for team/cooperative games
https://boardgamearena.com/bug?id=11297
When you play team games (e.g. Belote), BGA considers that you did tie with your partner. So, more you're partner have a low ELO ranking, more your own ELO ranking will degrade (whatever you win or lose).
However, it should be considered as more difficult to win with a lower ranked partner, so your ELO should grow (or at least not being affected by your partner ranking).
At the moment, you get punished if you play with lower elo players, instead of rewarded.
Can we have a response from the admin team ?
