Everyone knows that everyone is in plat, the rest are just thinking they are funny by voting for a different league.
I'll call Nada.

Platinum = all competent gamers
Gold = people too slow to play RTS games
Silver = slow and not very smart either
Copper = type with 1 finger, never played a PC game before
Bronze = some form of pysical or mental retardation

Well its true for me. Got to D+ with Zerg, on iCCup before sc2beta.

yes THANK YOU. this thread was starting to make me feel bad.
Same for me I was D+/C- Zerg on iccup, but playing random makes everything much harder so I'm only gold instead of platinum.
I'm sure that will change as soon as I pick a race.

Don't, you won't stay there for long, since this is a joke system. You can climb up through divisions so quick and the placement is pretty much useless. I haven't played SC in 7 years, played some W3 but it was too micro oriented and I haven't invested much time into it so no decent skill level. After placement matches I was placed with 1-4 into Copper (hell yes...). I thought it's standart, that you have to climb through (wrong...). Anyway, in 3 days of play I'm top 4 in my silver divison waiting for gold transfer (this is roughly equal to my skill: silver / gold). So you won't stay there for long, if you invest just a little time to do some research and ofc a lot of practice. There are many noob players, who never played RTS and all they do is one base wall in with cannons and teching for the most expensive units. Or console players for the worse.
heh?

Everyone who's registered on this site probably knows more about Sc than 95% of the players so it's no wonder so many are in plat.

A couple of months ago I didn't even know that there was such a thing as "build x building when drone amount = y"
And that there were people who actually build more than 3 rax/whatever and not qeue 5 units in all of your buildings :p

And I'm probably the norm 'cause alot of players played equal with me

Plat but definitely too noob to be considered platinum if they actually structured their leagues like a pyramid or something.

Plat before reset, gold after - my rage against 6rax reaper --> marauder with bunker inbase knows no boundaries (j/k - I probably should've scouted better).

One reason why this poll is so heavy towards platinum is 'cause this is TL.net. First, most of the people that are active on this forum are good at Starcraft already. Second, even though TL is a big thing in the community especially in SC:BW, only a fraction of the total SC2 community comes here. The SC2 community and beta users are exploding. Last night there were almost 9000 games being played simultaneously on Bnet2.0. That likely puts the people online, which I don't remember exactly, at near 25k-30k.

If this poll were to be on the battle.net forums you would probably see a very different break-down of the leagues. I'm almost certain there are more people in the lower leagues than there are in platinum and gold. For example I have a friend who is in bronze and did his placement matches about the same time as me ( I waited awhile after reset). I placed platinum and got Division 31, he placed bronze and got Division 72 or something. I believe division's are created as more people get into the individual leagues. That means then that at the time we placed, which was a a few days ago now, there were 3100 people in plat and 7200 in bronze.

So yeah, the majority of people do not place in platinum as this poll may suggest. This poll is skewed due to it being on TL. Is it maybe too easy still to get into plat, yeah probably, I think we need more placement matches, 5 is too few in my eyes. But that's not to say that EVERYONE or even a majority get into platinum or even gold.
HerO Fan! || Coming back to SC2 is like finding an old friend!

I'm in gold.

I quit BW a year or two after it came out, and I never really knew a competitive scene existed. I'm one of the dreaded SC2 imports to the community. But I've really really enjoyed watching and reading the various TL events/posts since I've been here, and I feel like I'm learning a ton. I'm even watching the Korean BW VoDs now, I'm addicted. This is the first RTS I've played player versus player.

So.. be gentle?
