Winning a Huge game is a major feat, and should be richly rewarded.

But being knocked out first is just bad luck?

Preposterous!

I disagree with Geo's and all similar proposals. You take your lumps or laurels as the numbers dictate. For goodness sake what could be fairer? Surely fudging the numbers to encourage play is not the intent of the rating system. Shoot, why not go whole hog and give no loss in points for losing, just add points when you win.

Criminy, this this fudging around is all fudged up.

In case I wasn't clear, I say stick with the basic FIDE system and avoid these systems that will create artificial inflation.
