Upsets - Reports Menu

Generates upset reports showing results where lower-rated players outperformed higher-rated opponents.

Upset Point Calculation

An upset is counted only when the player’s rating is lower than the opponent’s. Both players must carry a real (non-estimated) rating greater than zero — estimated ratings and unrated players are skipped on both sides of the pairing.

ResultPoints Awarded
WinFull rating difference
DrawHalf the rating difference
LossNone (zero)
QualificationPlayer must be rated below their opponent

Draw upsets are flagged with an = next to the point value, and the dialog footer reminds you that “Draw upsets are marked with =.”

Report Modes

The Chart menu offers three ways to score upsets. Switching modes recalculates the grid for the current section immediately.

ModeWhat it scores
Individual upsetsEach player’s single best upset across all completed rounds — the one pairing that earned the most points.
Cumulative upsetsThe sum of every qualifying upset a player scored over all completed rounds.
Upsets by roundEach player’s best upset within one chosen round. Use the Set round… button to pick the round to display.

Display Options

The Options menu’s Dignity saver toggle hides the “Victim” column in the Individual upsets and Upsets by round reports, sparing the higher-rated player from being listed by name. Dignity saver applies only to those two modes: it is disabled in Cumulative upsets, which never shows a victim column (a cumulative total has no single opponent to name).
