Surely 1 player out of the thousands on TL was due for a promotion (or demotion). | ||

I tanked a bunch of games in a row last when it wasn't giving points to see if MMR was affected. All of my previous opponents for the last 20+ games were all highish Diamond. After tanking around 20-25 games I was being matched up vs. Platinum and even some Gold. In conclusion, MMR still seemed to be working properly, but I don't know about promotions/demotions. Have they fixed the points problem yet? | ||

Surely 1 player out of the thousands on TL was due for a promotion (or demotion). on my new account i was promoted to masters without getting any points and i'm winning most of my games and i feel i'm getting harder and harder opponents so i think mmr is still working http://www.sc2ranks.com/us/2900211/Crush | ||

Personally, I'm just going to wait it out until we get an official confirmation that everything is fixed. | ||

Often, they announce stuff that many people don't even notice. I'll point you to the "stealth lock" earlier this month that was causing a lot of people to not be promoted. http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=233783 No official word was ever given. Only way we knew about it was because Excal consulted the powers that be and got back to us. They then only replied to a random thread on the EU forum saying it was fixed. They have a business to protect....I'm sure they don't like to admit their inability to maintain a relatively simple ladder system given how much money and expertise they have. | ||

Totally different thing. | ||
