Thanks for the formula. > ELO difference = -400 * log (1/res-1), where res = result%/100% Is this base 10 or 2 or natural log? (If res=W/(W+L) then dE=400*log(W/L), and comparing your formula to the other formula for res=75% giving dE=200 points, in this thread, that would suggest base 10 logarithm is assumed. Is that right?) Also, what's the range of error? (Is error on W and L assumed to be sqrt(W) and sqrt(L) for large enough W and L values?)
