Elo

The Elo rating system is named after its creator, Arpad Elo. It is a system to place players of a similar skill level to face off against each other. In Town of Salem, players may earn or lose Elo while playing Ranked games. Each player starts off with 1200 Elo. Winning games will cause a player's Elo to rise, while losing games will cause the player's Elo to drop. The amount of Elo gained or lost depends on the player's role, the player's current Elo, the opponents' current Elo, and whether the player wins or loses.

Players may check their current Elo by completing a Ranked game, exiting to the End Game Lobby and viewing at the top-left of the screen by their win/loss stats.

Rumors:

-Leaving while dead -5
