I won a 2781, but the system only gave me +2. Why did it do so? I'm curious.

I think the fact that it was a 10 second game had something to do with it.

But the rating difference was high. Do the players not get points when winning against each other. On a side note, when I saw two 3100s battling in 10 sec chess, one was gaining +8 whenever they won a game. Why did you think that happened?

Now when a 2300 wins a 2700, why isn't the 2700 punished a lot for it? Why don't they take away 15 points from him?

thread asserts that they made some ratings formula adjustments for ultrabullet back in 2021. I didn't see confirmation anywhere else, however

Also, ratings here use the Glicko system, which includes a statistical ratings valuation. So ratings change indicated by the ratings differential may be limited by the RD (Ratings Deviation) factor.

Thanks for sending the forum. I will view into it.

Yeah, i dont know why it did that

Hi! Rating changes depend not only on the rating difference but also on the rating reliability (RD value) of both players and the game type. So, factors like these can cause a small increase like +2 even after a big win.

just play 10 sec with a 0.1 sec increment to get normal amounts of points (7,8,9)

10 sec chess. That explains.

Bruh, will that really work? It still falls under the category of ultrabullet chess. And will console accept 0.1 increment?
