I am quite surprised that terrans make more workers than protoss, when toss have chronoboost and terrans need to make less workers because they have MULEs. Anybody have any insight about that?

Moving average for today´s games(10 games) (I took the 10 previous games before today´s):

1 - 61.14878325
2 - 64.56772818
3 - 66.31927646
4 - 63.34538236
5 - 60.5479079
6 - 58.97198264
7 - 56.31981758

Seems the more games I play, the worse my macro.

Curious, did you start tilting from losses? Because my average today went from mid 70's to high 60's after a bit of a slump (went 7-4 today)

Maybe you're unit control? There are more factors for sure. Not every platinum player is the same and neither is every grandmaster. Think of yourself as excelling in a specific area.
Be bold and mighty forces will come to your aid!

Some of it might be because a terran is almost always building 4-5 structures at any given time they need a few extra workers.

I've also noticed that protoss players seem to be more aware of their current economy and are likely to cut probes if they see they are stuck on a set number of bases, whilst terrans build scvs almost automatically all the time and will over saturate bases more willingly.

maybe not comeplete insight but some ideas

The best part is that if you remove that fictitious 1 minute game your score will be even higher and you will be more upset.

The only thing that can make SQ inaccurate is how long it takes your opponent to GG. I have a SQ of 84 when they leave right after I win the first engagement, but if they drag it out and/or lift their buildings and fly around, it can be as low as 58.

Big Kudos to you, sir! And this needs to be part of SC2gears!

- regarding numbers, I am a master terran, slightly above average and have a SQ of 75.38, remarkably close to what the graph would have predicted.
