game completion email to show rating

Post by neilb » Thu Feb 24, 2005 3:51 am

When a game ends two things happen:
1. my rating changes
2. I get an email
It would be really useful if the email told me my rating before and after.
The rating of my opponent would also be useful because it might explain why my rating changed in the opposite direction to expected.

After several resignations two years ago, which were due to lack of time, my current "rating" is 2765. I think it is correct within a margin of about 600-700 points.

So I am really not interested in how my rating here changes after a game.

I'm planning to add a "rating history" to the user profile with a graph of how it's changed over time. I've been saving the history for debugging purposes, so I've got data for the past year or two.

Not an issue for me...

But I very much do like the idea of seeing the rate change associated with a particular loss/win. Is there any way to do that now?
