Help, something is wrong in the calculation?

Check your detailed calculations first. Should there by any games missing, check if they appear in the ELO checklist. If not, you should direct yourself to the tournament organizer. He/she might not have submitted these games for processing (yet).

Otherwise, reach out through info@frbe-kbsb-ksb.be. Add sufficient detail to your request: player name, description of the error, date of game(s) played.
