For example: Suppose a player's true strength is 1500 for some time, and then he suddenly improves to 2000. Both before and after he plays a fixed number of games per day (say 10). Show a graph of what each rating algorithm would think his rating is over time. Many people complain that the KGS algorithm does not move fast enough for a case like this.
I think that's a bad example since no player "suddenly" improves by 500 ELO points. Christoph _______________________________________________ computer-go mailing list computer-go@computer-go.org http://www.computer-go.org/mailman/listinfo/computer-go/
