New rating adjustments

The "Rating range" when you "Create a game" doesn't seem to be working properly.
It seems like that the overall rating is set too high.
ASpotySpot, I've taken a look at a few people who have ratings over 2000 and I haven't come across what you are describing. Can you please show some screen shots of what you are describing (you can upload images to imgur.com and share the link here).

Thibault, are the rankings still to be updated because a lot of them don't make sense? Also, on the People page in the 'Best of ...' lists, the ratings of the players don't match.

Also, there are some oddities, like 4. sinnoohe. The ratings and rankings don't make any sense.
My statistics are wrong. I've played more than 50 games and there are only 17
carlosgodot, I've just taken a look at your page and it shows that there are 56 games. Try refreshing your page.
Oh, that's what you mean, ASpotySpot, I thought that you were talking about the userpage. I'm sure that a fix will be here soon.
Yeah my fault for being unclear. Its not too important, but it would be nice to fix.
Part1:

I hate to say this but I will.

There is absolutely no way in hell that im 2000-2200.
NOT EVEN CLOSE.

1700-1800 tops.

I have played on a dozen of chess websites (gameknot, redhotpawn, chesshere, yahoo, FICS, playchess, chessworld, chessanytime, instantchess, lichess, etc)
and usually my ratings are between 1600-1800.

Even my real CFC rating is no where close to 2000.

Part2:
One of the original problems still persists.
The standard and profile rating are higher than the average of the individual ratings. I still dont understand how bullet, blitz and slow have lower rating than the standard or profile rating. It shouldnt be possible.

I will admit I havent slept all night. I hope (sort of) that others might also see the problem.
I know that before some people complained about the low ratings but now its inflated!
