Will the Champions ratings in the hourly games be reset for the start of a new year?

Yes please. That was my understanding too from last year, that ELO rankings would be reset today.

It's not really an 'understanding'; I was just trying to be polite! It says this at the top of the ratings page:

"Ratings are reset Jan 1 of each year."

Oh so it does! Well my understanding was correct then. smilee Some people might even have stopped playing until it's reset, to protect their 2012 ranking wink - so hopefully it'll happen soon.

Very odd. The expert game has not reset and still clocking up ratings for 2013, while word wizard is on a new month's standings but still has last year's ratings. Does this mean each new game still counts to last year's ratings regardless of the standings, as I'm not risking another game in case to test it. It appears the standings could be resetting automatically while the ratings must be done manually if they are out of kilter.

The smartest is still playing for 2013 as well.

Very odd, it's now 2/1 and the standings all rolled over yesterday but the hourlies are still going on to last year's ratings. Is this something more than not resetting for 2014?

It's a shame the ratings couldn't be set to their position as it was at the new year. I was a couple of letters off the 11 letter word needed for Word Weaver around Christmas but didn't want to spoil my rating so waited a week so I could carry on playing without concern for my rating. Eventually I thought there must be a problem which could be connected with the standings and last the whole month and gave up waiting a couple of days ago and dropped around 60 points doing so which I can't get back now.

It looks like that didn't work either. Maybe an auto reset needs to be installed rather than a manual switch. It's hard to get a repairman on a holiday.

I'm filling in for him. He's taking some time off. I agree that an auto reset would be a very good idea!
