What attracts you to tournaments?

In viewing the USBGF elo leaders, I see that the current Novice leader has an elo rating that would place her 5th among the Open division people. I see that as an indictment against elo, because elo is derived from the elo's of your competition, and if your competition is all novice people, it gets inflated.
My recommendation is to use average ABT points per tournament. One downside is that side events are not assigned ABT points. Net cash won per tournament entered might be better.
I think you misunderstand how Elo ratings work. Your recommendation is fine, but that's not an Elo rating.
