What it keeps
Your groups and results stay in Games.
A group's results belong to that group. Games keeps the record; sharing a leaderboard or a season is a deliberate, revocable act, and joining one group never exposes another.

Assist With Games
Assist you and your AI with every game you play — the results, the rankings, the groups, and the seasons.
Log the night once and the argument settles itself: Elo, Glicko or plain win-rate, all recomputed over the same results. Games keeps every match underneath — which is exactly what an AI will read from once the family's pieces land there.
How You Rank is its own product with its own players. It is part of the family because it is taking on the Assist With way of working, not because it was built as an Assist space.

One record of every match. Every way of ranking it.

Works with what you already use
Your AI brings the maths and the argument-settling.
Games is joining the family by adopting the Assist With way on a site that already exists, and most of that work is still ahead. What it does today it does properly: every match kept underneath, so a new ranking method never means re-entering a season. As the family's pieces land, an AI you authorise will be able to log a night's results, rate them under whichever system you want to argue about and spot the streaks.
