I have reviewed your application and on the whole it is rather an impressive piece of work. However, I do query whether the Elo Ratings system has been implemented correctly. For instance you have players sat in the middle of the table that have not played many games. I believe the solution for this is to introduce K-Factor (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elo_rating_system) with a greater coefficient applied to players who have played only a few games.
