ELO rating system - Free Encyclopedia (1368 words)
Elo was a master-level chess player and an active participant in the United States Chess Federation from its founding in 1939.
Elo's central assumption was that the chess "performance" of any given player in any given game would be a hypothetical normally distributed random variable, with a mean value that represented the player's true skill, and would change only slowly.
Elo suggested scaling ratings so that a difference of 200 rating points would mean that the stronger player has an expected score of approximately 0.75, and the USCF initially aimed for an average club player to have a rating of 1500.
