I got promoted to Diamond, but I am now getting +6 points per win, -18 points per loss. It was +12/-12 when I was stuck in platinum, so is this normal?

So I know eveyone and their mother has posted about their promotions, but since I am oh so proud of my accomplishment I will add mine to the list. Lost my first game of the day, then won the next, waited for my promotion, it didn't come. I ended up going on a 5 game win streak before I got the promotion to diamond. So while I apparently was not yet owed a promotion like I thought, I was rather close to it. NA server if it matters.

@FrostfireL yeah, its normal.

Btw, It seems that the promotion bug has been fixed in CN server. My friend was able to promote to Master 1v1 just less than half and our ago. We will try to get our 2v2 to promote today then I will report back.

Anyone can confirm with other server as well?

The ladder system is unlocked
But I'm quite surprised by the amount of points I've lost due to promoting
I wanted to post on the blizzard forum, but each of my account with a starcraft 2 license is unable to post on their forum
I was platinum 1k9, I got promoted to diamond (I lost 1100 points), then to master (no point lost this time, I was afraid)
I'm matched up against 1K2+ master and gm players

The explanation I've found on the blizzard forum is this, so it seems pretty logical

The amount of bonus pool you have doesn't matter. The amount of points you get after a league change is equal to the amount of bonus pool you have spent so far plus 73.

There's no "point exchange rate" or anything like that.

I know the points on ladder don't mean much about skill, but it's quite deceiving to be under 1k point

You might need a loss or two before the system promotes you. Long win streaks often need a few losses before the system determines that you are fit for a promotion.

Anyways, just got promoted into Plat today after playing against Plat players for the past few weeks. Pretty good stuff this ladder unlock is.

I am sorry I have no blue post for you.

I personally saw at least 1 promotion for each of the 8 regions, that is enough to know it's working in all regions.

Edit:

Actually there was a blue post here:
