First I want to state this: 1) I read all the blue post from the Bnet thread link in the OP 2) I read all the posts in this thread.
Now my question is, and it has been asked in both threads but only got shady answers:
As far as I understand you will get an icon as soon as patch 1.3 hits, will this icon change during the week of lock down? I have read some blue posts that claim that season 1 will end with patch 1.3 but does that include that your badge is final?
I ask because I actually care about that shit ugly Master top 50 badge, and with my 3250 points I will be around place 47-51 in my division. I am completely gay for caring about that badge but hey, I do. I am especially gay because some people will get into top 8 of Masters with 3250 points while there are 3 guys with over 4k points in my division. And 8 with +3.9k points.
My division...

I wish it counted by points and not division =[ stacked divisions got owned (like my division has seleCT in it ahhhhhh )

That milestone will be awarded at March 29th after server maintenance. Whatever it is at that moment and it won't change ever again for season 1, + Show Spoiler +you'll get a new one at the end of season 2 at 2012 if the world doesn't end first [/kidding]

Good that I'm staying at top Diamond after being dropped from Masters ^^
top 8 Diamond icon looks so much better then top 50 masters Could have try to get to masters top 25 though... but if i get hard division it would fuck me up ^^ Staying in Diamond for few more hours.

Yea it should be by points and not division... it's just so random? Who cares about a 100 players in a single division when there are 100 of thousands of players in a league... Blizzard we just really wanna see how we stack up in the BIG picture.
I'm sure they will fix this
|
or they are trying to make divisions more competitive to closen the gap between high master divisions and low master divisions
|
Very pretty 0.0 This make me feel a little better about still be in diamond ^^

And they can easily see which players are percentile wise in the top 8%, 25% 50% and the rest. Look at sc2ranks for example.
But w/e, it is a big mistake from Blizzard in my eyes but they made bigger ones already.

I wouldn't count on it.... history has a way of repeating itself
Hell, I told them over 3 weeks ago that I was locked out of all my favorite channels. They don't even have the common sense to time people out of a channel.

Interesting thought: When the new seasons come out, the ladder divisions will be implemented more smoothly, so we'll have fewer instances of division A being god-tier and division B being BitByBit-Tier in the same league. With divisions thus smoothed out, and the skill level improving across all leagues generally, will the milestones be more indicative as a measure of skill/progress?
Granted, I still wish it were Top 8% instead of top 8 in some random division, but it's still interesting.
Edit: Also, it gives more achievable goals and visible incentives for lower level players to improve. "This season, I was gold with wings. Next season, I want the star as well!"

Has Blizzard released yet what you get for finishing 1st, 2nd or 3rd in your division?
|
Not gonna lie... totally bombed my rating because I want a top8 icon for every league Unfortunately only made it down to silver so I'll have to work harder on that for the end of season two o_O
Did blizzard say that you get something for 1st/2nd/3rd in division? This might make me play nonstop until the 29th...
|
anyone know when the first season is ending ?
|
First season ends this Tuesday. Ladders have been locked since last Tuesday.
