Ladder Lock is in effect, You should no longer gain anymore bonus pool and cannot be promoted/demoted Until the new season begins (2/14/2012 - NA)

*Edit* Official season lock thread from Bnet

During the week of February 14, Season 5 will end and Season 6 will begin.


From blizz Climbing the Ladder, How to earn a league promotion 1-31-2012

Each new ladder season, we see a large amount of questions on the community forums asking, “What do I need to do to earn a League promotion?” Therefore, to better answer that question and bring about some additional transparency, we’ve put together some information to shed a little light on it.
One way to almost guarantee a promotion by next season is to earn the number of division ladder points given in the corresponding table entry below by February 7, in anticipation of a February 14 Season roll. (ate subject to change.)
Q: Is this the only way to be promoted?

A: No, this is just one fairly reliable way. Some players may be promoted before reaching this number, and a rare few may remain in their current league after reaching the value. This rare few can expect a within-season promotion if they maintain their skill level during the next season.
Q: How do I get my points that high?

A: The only way to get this high is to win more than you lose for a sustained period of time. For example, if you look at your match history and have won at least 12 of your last 20 games, you’re on the right track, keep it up!


It seems like blizzard is staying consistent with the season length's, Season's 4 and 5 have each been exactly 56 days (8 weeks) in length

Hopefully they will have GM function properly when it re-opens up Feb. 21st

Hopefully they realize that Gomtv makes all the decent maps, and just replace their entire map pool with those.

I just hope they add some community maps finally.
Long time ago they added map that looked almost like Tal'Darim, but now it seems more like: we gave you community map so fck off. :S

Also Xel'naga is so bad at higher level.
