Why has my elo jumped?

Sorry if I missed it but my Elo jumped 100 points. Is there a new system or something?
mine went down from more than 2100 to 1900, go figure!
Because you're awesome, Marc. Mine has dropped almost 150 points, for being slightly less awesome.
Mine went down around 100.
Now the "standard" rating makes more sense
because its calculated to get a balanced score from the other ratings in your profile.
Mine went down 250.

If you only have played bullet, blitz, or classic, and nothing else, your standard rating will be your bullet, blitz, or classic rating. So, a lot of top players who only played bullet got increases.
Oh, scratch that. I hadn't played any games, and my rating was 10 points higher, so I assumed that was the result of the recalculation.

Turns out that I got the more typical -100 :)
