Basically, Every player starts with 1200 points when they join. Playing online games increases or decreases your score based on wins and losses. (High scores are better than lower ones.)
That's absolutely correct!

most people (I've only looked at about 30) seem to have a higher rating in 30.0 then in 10.0 games. Sure you will play better in a longer game, but so will your opponent.

A rating of 1200 is standard=After 20 games your rating will be established=Then your rating will change after each game you play
