Was planning on spening the rest of my bonus pool and getting into the top 8 of my division for that nice shiny gold star. Uhh... it's not too late for that. The lock lasts an entire week. You can still play over the weekend and spend your remaining bonus pool. On February 08 2012 02:04 darkcloud8282 wrote: I don't understand the need to lock the ladders? Why not just set a date to switch over to the next season? It'll remove all this complication of having people complaining/wondering why they didn't get promoted etc. I don't disagree that ladder locks lead to a lot of confusion, but they do allow a period where bonus pool stops influencing the end-of-season division ranks. The lock is primarily a way to communicate to players "this is your assigned division, you're not going anywhere for a week, now how high can you get in this division before the next season starts?" | ||

this way, your points at the end of each season are relavent to current skill comparisons if you are not fully active (within reason of course). it would be cool if there was some indicator that compared your current poitns to the points you had at that time in the prior season | ||

The "problem" is a lot of people think that since they aren't going to be promoted they should stop playing. I think it would just be less complications for the general masses to have a set date where one season switches to the next and call it a day. And anyways, who really cares about their ranks in a division? Divisions aren't even comparable across the board so being Rank 1 in one division doesn't equate the same rank in another. | ||

Speak for yourself maybe ? This is the perfect length. I'm Pretty sure to find as many ppl as yours that would agree with me.  | ||
