Tenhou.net ranking

Tenhou.net uses a ranking system, where players are ranking according to two criteria. The first criteria uses a combination of the kyuu ranking 「級」 and the dan ranking 「段」 systems. The other criteria is the ELO system, indicated as R####.

Ranking system

Tenhou.net uses to different number systems to determine player ranking: kyuu/dan ranks and the ELO system. For every game, points may be awarded or deducted based on game placement (1st throught 4th). The points awarded or deducted are noted in tables below. Placing 1st or 2nd awards points, while 4th has points deducted. Prior to the rank of 2級 (2-kyuu), players need not worry about point deductions. Afterwards, that would no longer be the case.
