In Nihon Kiin's ELO system(1), 1000 ELO is 1 rank, ex 25kyu is [1000,1999], 1 kyu is [25000,25999], pro is [34000,infinitive](2) (1) <http://u-gen.nihonkiin.or.jp/mypage/WR_AboutRating.asp> (J) (2) <http://u-gen.nihonkiin.or.jp/mypage/WR_RatingTable.asp> (J) #Unfortunatelly, Nihon Kiin has no English page. >I would like to do better than that, so what I need is a formula that >can be gradually adjusted by the server.
