Rating Question

I remember looking into the rating system a little, and I have the gist of it, but I just had one question. If I start a game, and let's say I'll gain 16 points if I win, 10 points if I draw, and -1 points if I lose...and I play another game in the middle and my rating is changed, does the original rating rates change? What if my opponent's rating changes in the middle of a game?

Yes, if you or your opponent's rating changes due to another finished game in the middle of your game then those changes will be reflected in your game also. This provides for a more accurate rating system.
