Losing ELO when both opponents leave

This is not an ELO rating. You earn points when you win the game and lose fewer points when you lose the game. The number of points won or lost depends only slightly on how well the other players are ranked.
The points system and the associated “levels” favor frequent players and do not say much about playing strength. The information in the leaderboard provides a much better indication of playing strength.

The points won or lost depend on the following criteria:
* The difference in the final result
* The number of rounds in which my team scored more points than the opponents
* A rough estimate of the playing strength of the 4 players: Is my win rate in the top quarter of all players with more than a certain number of games, or is it in the second, third, or bottom quarter? These quarter values are compared for both teams.

Replacement by AI_Bot:
Anyone who leaves before the last round usually loses additional points, regardless of the game result. Unfortunately, we cannot distinguish between deliberately leaving the game and technical problems. Anyone who is not behind (or only slightly behind) when leaving the game does not lose any points.
Until the end of the third round, the following applies: If I leave the game with a large deficit, the game will be counted as a loss; if I am in the lead when I leave, there will be neither a win nor a loss for my statistics. Only the tichus and double wins (not) achieved are included in the statistics (leaderboard).
Withdrawal after the start of the 4th round: If I leave the game with a significant deficit, the game will count as a loss for me; if I leave without a significant deficit, the final result (win or loss) will count for me.
 

Yu-Gi-Oh

Tichuant
I've played quite a few games where an opponent will lose a tichu or a grand tichu and then both will leave the match and subsequently be replaced by AI. Then me and my partner who are both still human players will go on to lose the match and then lose ELO! But if I were to win one of these matches with my partner, I don't gain any ELO?

How does this rating system work? Because, I don't think it's fair to lose ELO over a ranked game where both players leave the match...
