I saw his rank and I had to try him. when he resigned I was surprised to see that his rating still went up by 4

I was just thinking about this topic today.
Its really sad because I was thinking that he cant even ask for help in the forums because he cant solve the tactics :(
Huh. How does that work? I thought ratings dropped at a loss, or at the least, not at all.
Maybe he got points for trying against a much higher rated opponent.
Another guess would be that he hit the bottom of achievable ratings and pinballed into the other direction?
Math error in your favour.
Collect 4 points.
