Disclaimer: I searched through the forums using "already posted", "post exists", "mods please be gentle" and "no need for op". I couldn't find anything (maybe wrong keywords? I only found 2 closed and a BW thread).

I just wanted to say that I have an important question that really cannot be asked in the General thread (seriously Jinro is a good progamer and all, but lazy, when it comes to making this thread in time). I am a mid to high level Plat player and have been into Starcraft since forever (when I got a Beta key). Actually I am Diamond, because my MMR is that of a Master already, but ladder isn't fixed yet.

The question I want to ask is: Does any post like this already exist? If so, mods please del this post. Have you ever thought about it? If this post already existed (or similar one) there would be no need for an op like this one. It could be erased from history... An intriguing idea.

Anyways, discuss!

So confused. A lot of posts involve someone talking about how their MMR is a true display of their ranking.

I thought the whole point of an MMR was that it is hidden...so how do you know what yours is? And don't just extrapolate based on the ranks of people you've played because their MMR is unknown as well and estimating an unknown based on estimation of another unknown is circular and inaccurate.

Also...what is this thread about?

Btw I think his question is whether there's a thread out there for people to ask "is there already a post on so and so topic/question".

hmm there also seems to be a link between the amount of people who claimed to have known the intentions of the OP and how many posts about theories about the intentions of the OP already in the thread at the time of their posting.. excuse me while I parse

I am a mid to high level Plat player

Mid-plat doesn't exist, only high- and top- plat (or high plat/low diamond). The same is true for all leagues below masters. Also you forgot to mention that your game sense is amazing but you're held back by mechanics/cheese/imba.

Yes this is sarcasm. Yes, I'm also aware the OP is not serious.

Okay, maybe OP spent too much time at the Biergarten and then decided to make a drunken thread.

I do not normally post in the blog section but the confusion level is off the charts, is this some kind of Team Liquid Da Vinci code? is their a prize if we figure it out?
Or is it just that only he understands cause
I am a mid to high level Plat player and have been into Starcraft since forever (when I got a Beta key). Actually I am Diamond, because my MMR is that of a Master already, but ladder isn't fixed yet.


He is in two leagues and I am not? is the post that Jinro is suppose to make a confession post? for the murder of Ludwigvan?

Is the erase from history part a clue to maybe them trying to cover it up!?
The very last thing you say "An intriguing idea" your right this is, I shall think upon this more to find the true meaning of life.

I got it, it's a play on stupid people making stupid threads that have been made 10000000 times and ALWAYS START with "I used the search feature, but it didn't work." and then say "if this OP is wrong or something, please delete it"


I thought it was great.

Wrong... Clearly it's an exemplified metaphor of the inherent absurdity of existence and the confusion of human experience. Very Kafkaesque.

Edit:

For those that are not understanding, Jinro is the creator of the General Discussion thread - but he frequently forgets to create them (hence the reference to lazy)!

Apart from that, this thread is oddly intriguing, lol
