Bah. Just stop.

Returning to the thread, just finished playing my first game with the patch. I am liking the BW sounds! :D

So, any instant promotions yet?
I still have hours to go before I can get to ladder again.

Nope, and I was sitting over 500+ points in gold with a big gap over the #2 guy in my division. I was hoping for a promotion. Even after some games still didn't get anything.

I'm at the very low gold level, but from what I understand, if the system worked properly, all gold and top silver should be insta-platinum to fit the desired percentages, and I sure didn't see a promotion. Although a single played.

Nobody has so far from what I understand from lurking battle.net forums.

Can you download the remastered BW music anywhere? I'd love to have the mp3's...

http://www.sendspace.com/file/0iww4j
In mp3 format.

tried using the link, after it started downloading it caused my google chrome to crash, and crash immediately upon launch until I nuked the download, anyone else got this problem or is it just me?

I got a virus warning - didn't open it.

Well, AFAIK, they said they would be adjusting the ladder parameters "sometime around" patch 2.1... So maybe they havn't done it quite yet?

Feels weird to complain after getting such an awesome patch with so much cool stuff, but the ladder fix was what I was looking forward to the most, haha.

Blizzard commented on it a couple of hours ago as if it was working, but people like myself who are sitting high at number one keeping waiting. http://us.battle.net/sc2/en/forum/topic/11354455348?page=5#84

Various quotes from Kaivax, community manager from Blizzard, on the official battle.net forum:

We’re planning to implement StarCraft II Patch 2.1 next week. This patch includes more levels and new rewards, new changes to Clans and Groups, a 100% free Arcade, remastered Classic StarCraft and StarCraft: Brood War music, adjustments to the league distribution percentages on the ladder, Extension Mods, and many other features.
(source)

After 2.1 goes live, you'll play one match and then be adjusted. Some players may not be adjusted much. Others will get to skip up the ladder.
(source)

Good evening, everyone.

I just wanted to stop back in here and let you know that we’ve been watching the data roll in this afternoon, and so far, so good. We’ve seen a big uptick in promotions, and every player that we’ve spot-checked (including at least one who posted in this thread) has been statistically affected as expected.

The process of making league distribution better align with the desired percentages wasn’t expected to be instantaneous, and we will continue to monitor results very closely. We’re on it.

I (or another CM) will check back in on the issue for you, and update you again tomorrow.
(source)

So it's kinda hard to tell what's really going on.

The game still lacks the most important aspect. Hats.

This is absolutely incorrect. You are overestimating the errors in the league distribution, probably because you are using sc2ranks which doesn't work for the purpose.
This is an old post, but still relevant:
http://us.battle.net/sc2/en/forum/topic/10660146024#9
"The SC2Ranks/Nios.kr have never at any time reflected the target ladder distribution because they don't apply Blizzard's hidden internal activity metric. So, while the leagues may actually be out of whack, you wouldn't be able to tell from those sites anyway."

League system has done nothing but bad to the game IMO, but it's good they've tweaked it so it's apparently functioning better

These clan changes are really good! It's nice to have some more personalization, and the option to add events is really handy.
All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us.

just to bump this post, very useful to those who are still wondering why they aren't getting instantly promoted.
