After logging off at Masters rank 37, I logged on today to see myself at Masters rank 22.

WTF?!?!?!?

Smiled to myself, maybe I got better last night?

Then my face dropped, and I realised the truly great had found their destiny...

Happy GM league! ^^v

Not really a brag blog, because he didn't improve, and the reason his rank went up, is because he got passed over for entering GM. I don't know about you, but I wouldn't be bragging about that, haha. :p

Looks more like he just thought it was weird his rank went up, until he realized people were let into Grandmasters. Then he congratulates them.

How is this a brag? It's a funny story. 5/5.

I've noticed a lot of people are accusing people of bragging at the slightest positive post. It's getting ridiculous. His story was that he was happy he moved up in the ranks while sleeping, only to realize the good players had been shipped into grandmasters.

How could you possibly consider that a brag at all?

I see the good intent in the OP, but still, today's been full of not-enough-content blogs and by now I'm tired of SC2-related blogs especially the ones without some battle report or stuff to read and think about.

I do wish you the best in your playing though, hopefully you'll be with those "truly great" sometime soon.

Why would anyone not give this blog a 5/5? It's hilarious! "oh I went way up in rank! overnight!.... because all the truly great (GM) players have moved on" this made me chuckle loudly enough that my roommate looked over quizzically.

My only regret is that I have but one life 5/5 rating to give for my country this blog post.

I'm... wait... ok so this is what happened

Yesterday night as he goes to bed: He's like rank 30 or something.

This morning he wakes up and he's rank 22. He is very confused, then realizes that 8 people in his league above him in rank got promoted to GM, which is why his rank is higher.

So he's not actually a gosu sleep-player, but rather, he is one of the people left behind after the formation of GM. He's so "pro" (read: not GM level) that he went up several ranks today. Being bad (relatively) increased his rank. That is the joke. It is a joke ok

Why is the average rating 3.8 right now? Are people not actually reading this post? It's not a brag blog... I wish I could add more 5/5 ratings that this guy deserves for something that was truly funny.


You know what the solution is, right? It's time to actually get into GM

5/5 simply because you didn't deserve any of those 1/5s.
If you have a good reason to disagree with the above, please tell me. Thank you.

What actually happened is that Tasteless paid a visit to your ladder division, on one of his nightly missions to acquire ladder points. You were asleep, so you survived with relatively few losses, but others were not so lucky...

Anyway, congrats I guess, hopefully you'll be in GM soon enough.
