I think their overall rating (after the loss) has to be higher than the rating of your previous highest rating opponent.
best win rating did not go up...

That game is too short to count for ratings.

Ok thanks. Do you happen to know how long or how many moves are required for it to count?
Did you see a rating increase? The minimum moves seems to be 4. But resigns count regardless the number of moves. Hopefully someone else can clarify.

Incorrect information: The game is long enough to count.
"Resign- Affects ratings immediately after the abort option is gone (one move)"
Appears there is a little lag in the updating.

The minimum number of moves for timeouts is three and a half (7 plies). Not four moves as stated in the help entry.
Yes, my overall rating increased by 10 points but my best win rating did not. I wonder why it works like this and why and what the minimum number of moves it is for it to count? Thanks for the info.
Ok. I was not aware of that possibility. Apologies for giving incorrect info on the 5- move rated game.
Lag in the updating seems to make sense but I've played a game since then increasing my overall rating and also did a hard reset and refreshed the page several times and still only my overall rating increased while the best win rating did not.

Gnomes.
Oh you're a petty shit talker? Gotcha
Don't get mad at me, I told you it's the gnomes.
Looks like someone had shit in their shoes this morning and is feeling pretty petty about it.
