Masters events - What???

In Response To: Masters events - What??? (Stick)

I thought that ELO accounted for match lengths. I understand that there could be a predetermined match length requirement for the USBGF requirements, but if the formula already works to cover the shorter lengths, does that truly make them any less worthwhile? Surely ELO is something that is designed to represent a relative playing strength?

I am sure that RC is likely to jump in soon here, hopefully with noise of agreement.
