Also, it is really hard to climb the ladder unless you play a ton of games.
I don't think the way they have it with the consistent increase in points for the top of the ladder works.
Basically (when your bonus pool has 0 points in it) if you win vs someone even to you, you would gain 10-12 (lets say) and if you lose vs someone even to you, you lose 7-10 points.
This leads to when you win 50%, you gain a few points each session. I know they have the ladder set up to match you up with harder/easier opponents to stay near 50%.
But say I log on, and go 3-3 for the night, i gain a few ladder points, it just seems weird.
There should be a few people at the top of ladder with a great W-L but less games played, but all the people up top have >1k games, its crazy.

46 KR ZergCheckPrime 2,191 1,100 684 61.66% 리버티 크시 조 (#2) 50 mins
47 US Terrantheognis 2,189 279 203 57.88%

yeah those stats mean nothing....who knows who each player played and when they played.
Bonus pool is a bitch for those who play every day. Look at my division http://sc2ranks.com/div/16064/division-torus-november I keep catching up to the guy in first then he comes on and plays til his bonus pool is gone and jumps up like 75+ pts. I play like 6-8 games a day and only get like 40-50+ pts or so.
damn just noticed Im top 25 in the WORLD in 2s random... _________________ Anti-Jabroni
