题目: Re: Ratings

I can add a little insight, but not much. His seven wins all came in one tournament (and one win was against me). He advanced to the second round, but, thanks to the very slow play of one individual, the second round started months later and it looks like he wasn't even coming to Brainking any more, so all three ended without a move. I believe that those are not included in the ratings (correct?), so his rated games consist of only seven wins against no losses.

Now, does a player who is 7-0 deserve to be ranked above a player who is 126-0-1. Not in my opinion, but that's why there are established and provisional ratings. ;-)
