Thanks for pointing that out and for the feedback

I definitely didn't mean this as advertising. I mainly shared it here because I run small club tournaments myself and built the tools for practical use during events. I thought some players or organizers here might find them useful too.

If the post is not appropriate for the forum I completely understand and I'm happy to remove it.

Regarding the K-factor question: the calculator follows the official FIDE rating regulations. The K-factor depends on the player's situation:

K = 40 for new players until they complete 30 rated games
K = 20 for most established players under 2400
K = 10 for players who have reached 2400 at any point

The tool automatically applies the correct formula depending on the selected parameters, but I realize the interface could probably explain this more clearly.

Thanks again for the feedback — suggestions from players are actually very helpful for improving it.

I've improved and simplified the K-Factor UX. I hope you like it. Thanks again for the suggestion.

I checked it with lichess FIDE calculations, and it was flawless, can you make a uscf one? Thanks.

Thank you so much for taking the time to try out my tool. I hope it's helpful. Regarding a USCF Elo calculator, it's not a very quick and easy calculator; I might consider using an estimator first. What do you think? Could it still be useful?
