Rating - losing points demotivates players.

[Tales]

As I look at the rating system it does reset every quarter.
By this reason, rating does not reflects players skills.

I noticed that winning player gets twice more the points the losing one loses.
As I understand it is meant for the periodic ranking.
Wouldn't it be better that losing player would lose no points?
Some players might avoid playing just to not lose points.

In that case why wouldn't team mates play each other over and over again and just surrender on turn 1. Since you lose no points you just pump up your team mates total. Then he does the same for you.
