http://research.microsoft.com/apps/pubs/default.aspx?id=67956 is a link I found after your post.  It does sound like a reasonably well thought out system (perhaps my initial misgivings about it is that it just is not the chess rating system that I am familiar with).

<p>Does anyone know how the rating system on <a href="https://www.playdominion.com/Dominion/gameClient.html" rel="nofollow">PlayDominion.com</a> works?  I am familiar with the chess rating system, which is quite, but this is not the one used.  </p>

# How does PlayDominion´s rating system work?

(Asked by: username_0 on 2015-01-14)

Does anyone know how the rating system on [PlayDominion.com](https://www.playdominion.com/Dominion/gameClient.html) works? I am familiar with the chess rating system, which is quite, but this is not the one used.

It's the Microsoft TrueSkill rating system, with some changes to how the value is displayed (mainly to stop the displayed value becoming negative, or going down after you win a game). It was [reverse engineered](http://forum.dominionstrategy.com/index.php?topic=10869.0) back in April 2014.
