Shorter seasons are in my opinion just great, there's nothing negative with it, hopefully this means that the map pool will be updated more frequently. It will NOT affect your mmr in any way, you just wont be promoted during the lockout, but you will after if you have been proven worthy. | ||

Its natural for all the games. Sure there are other factors but this one is the biggest i believe. About the 2 months long seasons, its awesome for me  | ||

It's a good example of why plotting something without thinking about the data set you're drawing from can tell you totally the wrong thing. What you're seeing in those plots is pretty much just how long it takes sc2ranks to update its data. Today's numbers are near 0 because sc2ranks takes a few weeks to visit all the profiles, with only the top-ranked profiles visited daily. That means that sc2ranks has collected data for almost none of the games played today. It's collected more data for the games played a week ago, and even more for those played two weeks ago. The number for October 4th is going to climb slowly over the next few weeks as sc2ranks hits more profiles. The number of actual games played is probably dropping off to some extent, but that's not the reason those plots are dropping to 0 over the last two weeks -- it's just that sc2ranks takes a long time to collect all the data about a given day's games played. Edit: Looking at my (Gold league) profile right now, sc2ranks last updated my 1v1 ranking information 11 hours ago, but the last time it gathered my individual game history was September 8th. That was a month ago. | ||

Personally, it feels like one more reason to stop caring about the ladder. Why don't they just display everyone's MMR and be done with it? I guess because people can't handle variance... Soo true! | ||
