Merry Christmas everyone!

I do not see a way to see the rank/rating assigned the players at the end of a match?

I'm not altering the PGN headers, just making their key/values searchable. It should be possible though to estimate the Elo rating from the match results.

I only see a win/draw/lose outcome. How do I derive a rating from a binary result?

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elo_rating_system

Basically is something like this: by looking at the difference between the ratings of the two players you derive the non-binary expected result. The difference between the real and the expected result is then converted to rating gain or loss.

Thanks for the explanation. I did not know that. However, when I go to my stats, I can see the history of the outcome of my matches in rating/rank. Why can I not have access to the table that contains those numbers?
