Report history
If I have the opportunity to stick the queen of spades on 4th place when I am 2nd, I am currently incentivized to make this move so I can get 2nd place and conserve my ELO ranking.
If ELO was winner take all and all 3 losers lost points equally, then I would be incentivized to eat the queen of spades. This is how the game is supposed to be played
Or change the result of the game: winner is 1st and all others 2nd
