Rtg = Rating of a player according to the previous list For single game calculations, keep the following values for W W=1 if the player has won W=0.5 if the player has drawn W=0 if the player has lost For the top player list, use Kval = 10 Example: If Kasparov returns to play rated events, plays Carlsen and wins one game, the calculation is as follows.
