The only way to track what you want is looking at every player individually, I think. | ||

Actually, I can see what league a person was in during their last active season, I'll see what I can do on that. | ||

Ok, so the ladder drops in NA must be from all those people who smurf and beat lower leaguers so bad that they break their computer and never play StarCraft again in their entire life which then causes people in other leagues to drop down and then they get mad, break their computer, and never play StarCraft again, which will then result in a never ending cycle of people stopping playing until the only people left on the NA server are half-assed pros in numbers so low that GM league is reduced to 50 people as compared to 200, and yet all 50 slots are occupied by Koreans with 10 accounts each. Boom. Run-on sentence that predicts the future. Anyway, thanks for the spider data OP, hope that my prophecy doesn't come true. Still, the numbers now are somewhat promising, though it does go to show how many people don't 1v1. | ||

I've added a table of which league a player was in in season 3, if they did not return in season 4, from no 1v1 games, to bronze, to grandmaster. total no1v1 bronze silver gold plat diam mast gmast | ||

Anyway, declining numbers every season isn't rlly strange. SC2 isn't a big game but quite some people like to watch it. When HOTS releases the numbers will probably be the same or a little higher then in S1-2 again. | ||

Is it because the topic used adjusted s3 data? Looking through these data, I am of the conjecture that more players gave up playing 1v1 ladder compared to players that stop playing altogether. How complicated would it be to test this measure? | ||

It's not a very promising trend for the long run, especially if other games come along that grab people's attention. | ||

Most people I know play customs due to ladder anxiety or play custom maps with friends cause they suck and don't wanna get pummeled by those that have developed experience and know the metagame well. | ||

The stream audience is still getting bigger so it's not a problem and after HoTs there should be a huge influx of people and the same with LoV. | ||

We have two major expansion packs coming out I wouldn't be worried (or maybe even more?) | ||

Yes, this is raw data. I probably should show the real data before I show adjusted in cases where I mess with it, but, meh. Also, your conjecture is correct. Look at the table (and/or graphs) of players with x number of 1v1 wins, vs x number of any wins. 1v1 lost 15-25% of their players, while 'all' went from -4% to +10%. If I could see custom game data, that would be a fascinating 3rd puzzle piece, but alas. | ||
