	== What is ~~ELO~~ rating ? ==		== What is an Elo rating? ==

Your Elo rating for a game is an indicator of your level of skill at that game. It's a 4 digit number followed by the symbol http://fr.boardgamearena.com/theme/img/common/rank.png.

	~~ELO~~ points ~~gains / losses depend~~ on the ~~level~~ of your opponents, and ~~your rank at the end of~~ the game. ~~Some examples~~:		The number of Elo points gained or lost in a game depends on (1) the Elo rating of your opponents, and (2) what place you achieve in the game (i.e. 1st place, 2nd place). For example:
	* If you end the game in a better position than a player with a higher ~~ELO~~, you gain a lot of points.		* If you end the game in a better position than a player with a higher Elo, you gain a lot of points.
	* If you end the game in a better position than a player with a lower ~~ELO~~, you gain fewer points.		* If you end the game in a better position than a player with a lower Elo, you gain fewer points.
