method for calculating the relative skill levels of players in games
such as Chess, Go, Scrabble and of course, Backgammon. New players
to New York City Backgammon are assigned a rating of 1500, reported
matches build their ratings higher or lower from this point. The
Elo-based ranking is a never ending list which will determine the best
players throughout the years. As usual for Elo-ratings, volatility is
