Maybe the problem is that there are too few skill levels being discussed.

Suppose we define 8 skill levels. Doesn't matter what they mean.

1 Beginner
2 Low intermedite
3 Intermediate
4 High intermediate
5 Low advanced
6 Advanced
7 High advanced
8 Expert

Each game specifies a skill level. If you finish in the top 1/4 you move up, the bottom 1/4 you move down, otherwise you stay where you are.

Initially, everyone gets to pick whatever level they like. You get a few mismatched games at the start, but pretty quickly it settles down.

From that point on, everyone without an "official" ranking starts as beginner. If you really are good, your 7th game will be expert.

This free-form ranking system could actually work. However, I would suggest a slightly modified advancement schema.
Advance from level 1, 1 top 20%;
Advance from level 2; 2 top 20%; (ratings 2.0 and 2.5)
Advance from level 3; 3 top 20%; (ratings 3.0, 3.3, 3.6)
Advance from level 4; 4 top 20%; (ratings 4.0, 4.25, 4.5, 4.75)
etc.

The host could submit advancements and decrements to a centralized rating agent.
