I see that Dibbun has a lot of free time on his hands

i mean thats what it used to be. no idea what it is now. people get elo based on other lobbies as well i guess.

also you start getting positive elo only after you win several games to bring your positive elo to 1.

you start getting elo only after you reach 10k points. then you get positive elo in a game based on the elo of the players you beat. if you lose you get negative elo based on the players who beat you. their elo affects your elo. so if you win several games in a row, your elo will be good enough to show your name in the fame page. like giga's name popped up there recently. it went down because giga then started losing games

it probably only works in comp or just not at all

when you place high in a round you get some elo

it's the stupidest stat that this site has ever had though (karma doesn't count; that isn't a stat)

actually might not. It only seems to affect a few players per game so my guess would be not.

does it work for new accounts then?

it got screwed up when the individual lobby stats were introduced so only those players that had less than 20,000 overall points before that still have their ELO work correctly.

ye what happened to ELO?

that's your ELO. i'm not sure why it doesn't affect it any more
