PPE COMMUNITY
The exact rating rules used by the PPE Elo Manager and live website.
PPE Community Elo Rankings are the live standings managed by the PPE Elo Manager. Each player has one current Elo rating; new players begin at 1000 Elo unless an admin has already set a different starting rating.
Needs Training marks the player with the lowest current Elo. It is an automatic ranking label, not a punishment or inactivity rule.
Members submit a tournament result with a proof link. It does not change rankings right away. An admin checks the proof, then approves, declines, or deletes it. Only approved submissions appear in Recent Results and receive Elo changes.
Other and Casual submissions are recorded after approval but award 0 Elo under the current rules.
| Result | Juniors | Open |
|---|---|---|
| Win | +25 | +30 |
| Loss | -15 | -15 |
| Podium / top 3 | +20 once | +20 once |
| Result | Juniors | Open |
|---|---|---|
| Win | +50 | +75 |
| Loss | -20 | -20 |
| Podium / top 3 | +100 once | +100 once |
Each submitted win and loss is counted individually. For example, two Open wins in a standard tournament award +60 Elo. The podium bonus is applied once per approved submission, not once per win.
Player profiles use the same recorded Elo history as the leaderboard. Rank movement is calculated from saved leaderboard snapshots. Older snapshots were not stored, so movement is shown only after enough new snapshots exist—never guessed from incomplete data.
