How does league interact with rating? Is 600 Diamond considered much higher than 600 Platinum? If so, how can you compare ratings between different leagues?
The top guy in my division (Plat) has 745, which would put him in second place on this list at the moment =/
This is why I don't understand why Blizzard doesn't simply use the MMR rating as display of ranking.

Wow, thats really awesome, it always amazes me when people can just whip up scripts like this, in 30 minutes no less. I ctrl+F my name, found at 47, does that mean it was the 47th division named?

Of course 600 Diamond is better than 600 Platinum. I don't even...
Thanks a lot for putting this together, I feel so motivated now that I know how high my ranking really is (top 200)  Now I just gotta grind and break the top 100.

Awesome stuff thank you ! Strelok has sick stats !

I think Blizz doesn't want to use points as a ranking system overall because it just rewards players that play alot, not players with more skill. That's why I like the idea of tournaments every few months amongst the top people in each division... sort of like they can queue for quick-match-tournament and play other people that have tournament eligibility (ie top 8). And those results get posted globally.
It wouldn't be pyramid style tournament, of course, but it would be random-round-robin style, requiring you to play at least X games (say 10?) but recommending more. Can only play one opponent once. The random results then form a web of Who is > whom and then people are sectioned off into rankings (there would be alot of ties, so maybe like ranks: 1;1;1;1;1;1;7;7;7;7;7;7;14;14;14;14;14;14;14) etc.
Personally I think that would be AWESOME. People could game the system to try and be top in bronze but then you can't quick match queue in 1v1 anyways, since 1 ID per person.

This is really cool. Thanks

@ Boblion - not entirely sure, he's in my division but he hasn't played since EU came back online. I don't think it's THE Draco but who knows. Anyone know what the real draco is up to?
Edit: I take that back he has played more games.

If you actually take a minute and think about it. If someone is sitting at 700 platinum ranking, then who do you really think he is playing? Obviously 6-700 ranked diamond players, which means his matchlist is gonna be the same as someone with that rating in diamond. That means that technically there is NO difference between the divisions becaue both players are playing the same exact opponets, with the same skill level. In the end, at that rating, the only thing that is different is the divison name (plat/diamond).

I don't think that as a 700 plat you play against 700 diamond.. you rather play lower diamond like 2-300 .. But I think it's different between the US and Europe, in Europe I'm stuck in gold and I only play against diamond players (is it a bug or something ?) whereas in US I'm in diamond and playing only diamond (no gold!)

Isn't this information completely useless as your rating is determined by the people you play, and the people you play have nothing to do with the division you're in?
The only number that really matters is Blizzard's "secret" rating that shows how good you actually are.
The numbers here show how good you are relative to the people you are matched up against, but we have no way of seeing who you are matched up against. ie, we have no idea what the real divisions are.....

Well, statistically this should even out... That is, in even the medium run, everybody should be playing approximately the same people, so the good players will do well and the less good players will not. So, huh?
