Lowering the K-factor even more after lots of game

Hi,
There is some game which are mostly rng or just have lots of players, and elo doesn't mean anything. You just gain a lot by finishing first, and lost a lot when you finish last.

For having a better overview of the level of people, maybe it would be nice to lower the K-factor after maybe 50 games.

I think mainly of games like: Saboteur, Not alone, Secret moon(, Room 25).


But Secret moon seem the most annoying. You usually play at 8, and luck is an important factor.
Especially since Arena is out, the elo should tell the level of the person.

Just checked something, all the game I named here got 3 in chance.
Maybe K could depend of number of players, and factor chance.

Reducing it when number of players is high or when chance is high.
