How do game Ratings work?
Sort:
It depends I think usually it is the opposite of what is shown on yours, unless your new with a privisional rating that is subject to major change or you haven’t played in a while and your account is trying to rebalance your rating. But generally they have the opposite of what you have.
And good evening to you! Love the kitty!

I'm not asking how the Rating numbers are calculated but rather how to interpret the INFO tab in a game. When in Daily Game, as example, and it tells me the following then these are clearly MY Rating adjustment numbers:
Variant: Standard (Rated)Win: +13, Loss: -1, Draw: +6
QUESTION: What are my opponent's numbers? Would they be exact opposite as:
Win: +1, Loss: -13, Draw: +6
Or are their Rating numbers completely different? Thank you all for helping me!
Yes, unless either of you are on provisional rating
I didn't know that was what u wanted. Once my ELO was essentially established, I don't think it's different than the opposite of yours. For example, I see an error in your presentation. It appears your opponent has a significantly better ELO than you. So if, the underdog, wins you get positive points, win=+13. If u get a draw, that also is in your favor, as u were expected to lose. So u get draw = +6. And if you lose, which is expected, u too will lose points, but -1. However, your mistake was giving +6 to your opponent also for a draw. No. He was expected to win, so a draw still gets him negative points, -6.
