Excellent post Daniel!

I have been wondering if Elo type systems could be modified to incorporate prestige related issues. The methodology would be to weight the ranking point swings in accordance with some agreed scale representing the prestige value of the event (in a similar manner as when the ranking point swings vary with match length).

This might deviate from the purist notion of a Elo system but may be a good practical compromise.
