If your win/loss rate is at about half, then you may assume that your contribution is about as good as can be expected.
If your win/loss rate is significantly less than half, then you may assume that it indicates you have room to improve your performance.

That's one conception, sure. It is also possible that the notion of 50% win rate being the center of a bell curve may be an inaccurate representation of game play which springs to mind simply because of it's familiarity.
BeeCuz1 votesIn it's simplest form, MatchMakerRating is a function of wins, losses and opponantRating, f( o, w, l ) = ( o + 400(w-l) ) / (w+l)
With a function of the form f(x) we can easily plot a curve over a number line of x With a function of the form f(x,y) it becomes a surface over a plane of x,y which is also easy to visualize. But with a function of the form f(x,y,z) the solution set becomes a hyperplane over the volume x,y,z and we can no longer see any more than it's shadow in three-dimensional space.
It could be possible to use time as a fourth dimension for an animated plot. For example, we could plot a surface over f(wins, losses) and adjust opponantMMR over time.
