• Por favor, copia e pega a mensaxe de erro que ves na túa pantalla, se houbera algún.
A player abandoned a game on the last hand. The points awarded to the remaining three players did not reflect the relative scores of the players.
Specifically, the player in first place (me) had an overwhelming lead..."uncatchable" at level 17 of the game...whereas the player in last place had less than half the score of the other players. This last place player and the other remaining player were awarded almost double the points of the player with the highest score.
I understand that points are calculated based on relative strength/elo of the players. However, the calculation needs to better reflect how far the game has progressed. In this case, the game was on the last level, yet the points the leader received were about 25-33% of what he would have received had the game completed.
If the scoring algorithm is not improved, there becomes an incentive for a player to abandon a game at a late stage so that another player is awarded or not awarded the points (s)he would have earned had the game finished. In this particular game, the abandoning player lost points; however, by abandoning the game at the end, he prevented the leader from moving up in ranking and allowed the other two players to move up in ranking more than they would have had the game completed.
I am not claiming that the abandoning player in this game was malicious. His action highlighted a flaw in the scoring algorithm that should be corrected.

You may want to browse the mainsite reports and find one about the Elo system that you can add this to as a comment - or even submit this as a new report. Don't hold your breath though, there are some rather more serious flaws in the Elo system that have gone unaddressed for years.
