I know ... it's sad. I only wish I had that kind of time to devote to gaming. At first you feel inferior because you can't perform on the level of these guys and you think they are some kind of masterminds ... but it is really that they just play the heck out of the game and learn as they go. It isn't like they sit down and figure things out all that quickly.
Still, you can't keep up with people who play 150 games a week, can you? Kind of depressing.

Much better record and at a time when players at least know the basics.

I personnally know some of the players with 300-400 games played on this ladder and they all earn much more than 60k a year by playing poker...

Dkim is randoming and cow is playing 1 race. And tbh with the way dkim is playing.. it looks like hes giving 70% effort.. not even kidding. Ofc cow is prob better then anyone right now.

Cow dude hardly seems to be playing at all. That record has the looks of a subprime bubble ready to burst.
The truly impressive one is Smuft.

Wow you are so awesome...
Oh how I hate people who make these pathetic excuses because they cannot compete at the levels they secretly wish they could. If you can't devote the time to gaming then don't make excuses about your poor skill level with ifs or buts.
It's especially irritating to see "i prefer making 60k a year" with the condescending tone associated to it. I make more than that in a year, and so do a lot of the players playing a whole lot at the moment. We can afford to put a lot of time into gaming because we have financial freedom because we were clever and dedicated to gaming in the first place. Your whole logic is flawed and that post made you sound like a pretentious generalizationist. If you want to try and use the condescending trick on us to cover up your own shortcomings in gaming then at least talk about your (unprovable) social skills instead of the money you make because I doubt you can compete in that area.
Also here's a hint: Nobody is interested in your schedule and your relationship status.

This might be a completely noob question, but how exactly do they determine who is in what divisions? like if you're "platinum" caliber, from your testing games, do they just randomly throw you into one of the 12 platinum divisions, or is there a method. What if you go from gold to platinum?
