Subject: Dark Boats / Boats + Ratings
So what is the formula(s) that are used in the code here to figure out ratings.

THIS PLACE is where you normally point people, but that mostly talks about games within a tournament. So like that site, does this also have 2 different formulas? (1 for people under 8 games total, and 1 for people over 8 games). That site also talks about Wins & Loses. Is that TOTAL all games win & lose for that game type, or just in that tournament?

Anyway, the whole reason I'm asking is that for the life of me, I can't figure out what is going on with the Dark Battleboats & Battleboats plus ratings. EVERY game that I finish seems to be a rating flex of 40 or more points, even after complete 100+ games. (usually by now the change is a lot smaller). And for the life of me I can't reproduce the math for the ratings of these 2 game types.

It's almost like something in the site code is pointing to the wrong "game total" value or something, which then calculates each rating wrong. (But if I can figure out exactly how the ratings are calculated on this site, hopefully I can figure it out.)
