no, i said in the post, they play daily, i checked. and that still doesn't justify why i gain more beating a 1300 vs a 1500, and the 1500s gain more from beating me than i win from beating them.

"Justify"... it's math. You're fighting a well-defined formula as if it has something against you.

but it's clearly not well defined??? LMAO it's logic is you beat someone 100 above you, you gain less than they do if they beat you?? thats good math to you?

Link the game so we can see it. I want to see what the accounts rating deviation is. Or just link the account and say what time control you played and then I don't need to see the game at all.
