This may be a good place to start figuring our own club ratings to help us pair up quads or whatever before we really start the ladder competition.

The Elo rating system is a method for calculating the relative skill levels of players in competitor-versus-competitor games such as chess. It is named after its creator Arpad Elo, a Hungarian-born American physics professor.

A chess rating system is a system used in chess to calculate an estimate of the strength of the player, based on his or her performance versus other players. ... The Elo rating system is currently the most widely used. The first modern rating system was used by the Correspondence Chess League of America in 1939.
