Pocket-Monkey, another game site, mentions the following: "Elo ratings are not absolute, they are relative, and they're only applicable within a body of players." So I do not expect USCF and Bk ratings to match.

However, I agree there are other problems with the ratings, like draws not counting for enough, and a player's first few games being over-emphasized.
