im just wondering, what do you guys feel are the dividing factors between D+ and C-?
from my experience, the C- players have:
-much better mechanics than steady D+'s
-better control and reaction
-better multitasking
-better unit production
-sneakier play and more trickery involved

what else?

Honestly, i can't tell the difference, D+ and C- players this late in the season seem pretty much the same.
It's better to burn out than to fade away

Congrats dude, I'm happy for you. I've been struggling to not drop to D- since forever, but I think my APM is improving a little, hope I can join you soon.

I usually find D and D+ players to be around the same.

I'm always kind of surprised to see so much importance attached to APM. On a high level of play, multitasking is definitely very important and you will need to have good mechanics. But insight is still way more important.
Take me for example. I have like a 110 APM, I don't even use hotkeys to control my army OR macro (I should work on this) and I didn't have that much trouble reaching C some seasons ago.

The one thing that bars me from getting to C- is the Terran race.

I get cooked alive by them.
