I don't think it's intentional, rather there is an error with the promotion algorithm and as such it takes a certain amount of losses before one is eligible to move up. They say that one needs to have >50% win rate before they are eligible to be promoted, and so just by winning the first game a player will have 100% win rate, so perhaps they need a player to have played a certain number to be promoted, but rather than have "number of games played", they chose "number of losses" | ||

Blizz employee: "OVER NINE THOUSAND????" -Shamelessly stolen from the EG vent thing about iNc. Gawd that was funny. And what's up with the "must lose 7 times in order to move up to diamond"? am I the only one that find that dumb? You have to lose in order to advance? | ||

It's certainly not good implementation, but it does increasingly seem to be the case. | ||
