I don't believe solution 1 is the fix, rather My preferred solution was simply a variation of 2 which was simply not to demote upon a win. That way if you have a 19-2 record and then don't lose, you'll stay in your current league (which makes sense since you aren't losing in that league in the first place).

Take it you're a natural in this game and feel honored. I do agree with this. It's like how you can't place directly into Masters in SC2. However, for players who already placed in Masters, and have gone 7-0/8-0 etc against their fellow Masters players, it doesn't make sense for them to get demoted. Yes, you can say it's possible it's a fluke, but they've already made huge progress towards proving themselves (and honestly? 7-0 fluke? Unlikely). At least wait until they lose a game to reconsider their placement (Though I'd still find 9-1 against Masters getting demoted to Gifted to be nonsensical). Yea, I know that you had to go through a lot more, especially with the original reset after you had played tons of games. However, the questions isn't should people just have to put up with the solution despite its flaws (like you had to last time), but rather, is the solution flawed?

I didn't have a 19-2 record. That was theoretical based on the posts I've seen from other people. 2. My original post was simply constructive criticism of what I felt was a flaw in the way things were handled. For you to assume I was angry was plain wrong =/ I just didn't think that's how the league fix should work. 3. At the time the problem didn't even apply to me so I most certainly had nothing to be angry about and hatred? Really? Hatred? What? I hate OML because some people I don't even know have had their rating lowered in a game? LOL 'ㅅ'a But yea, now that it's happened to me (just got demoted with a 15-1 record, loss was against a Super-Titan). I am annoyed since it means I'm going to have to play more easy (boring) games against low ranked players... Keyword though is *annoyed* which is very different from being 'angry' or 'hateful'. Do I think things should have been handled differently in this case and in the future? Yes. Is it the end of the world if they aren't? No. Since there is no inflection on the internet I'd advise you not to make assumptions in the future. =/ Anyway... time to go crush those poor Gifted, Clever, and Unranked players I queued against ^^ |
