Game Courier Ratings. Calculates ratings for players from Game Courier logs. Experimental.[All Comments] [Add Comment or Rating]I agree with Antoine: basically, recognized variants or variant that have been played on Tournaments must be considered for rating purposes. The reasons are various, but the main are that some variants can be considered rich enough, stable, balanced, deep and good for game play, without a clear 'a priori' advantage for one player or the other, or with a clear tendence to draws, or extremely sensitive to openings, or not very related to Chess, or very large in such a way the games are kilometric, or very little and the game result is not relevant, or chaotic enough for rate the players after a game in such a way the rating makes sense. But other games may be also considered, if there is consense. In every case, I consider that NOT ALL games may be subject of rate the results, by many reasons, depending on the game.
