"Quality of win" matters not at all. No matter if you win by 100 or lose by 1 its just a win or loss and your skill rating adjusts based on difference between you and your opponent's Skill Rating.

I don't think it should matter in which of the 3 matches you beat them though, other than indirectly by the above.
It actually makes sense that you would gain more if you beat someone much higher, and you would drop more if you lose to someone much lower. From a balance point of view. I guess I'm satisfied with that answer. For now. :grin:
