ELO calculation for players

Hi,
I think there is a real need to modify ELO calculation for the number of players : I was thinking this was the problem only for Hanabi or Tokaido.
But most top players are in the ranked list because they play only 2 players games. It seems to me that there is more ELO points to grab when games are played 1vs1, which is unfair or not properly calculated to take into accounts the number of players. It is even easier to abandon games at 2 (special case for Hanabi). Somes games have even different rules for 2p.
bye.

At 2 players, you have all your fate in your hand.

With more player, you take the risk to be focus (especially if you got many elo), and loose because other players just 2v1 you.
