Prolly beat some shitty people and then lost to a shitty person.

It doesnt dude, the ranking system is so fucked up its not even funny. Also, heres a kicker, that number you are seeing as your "score" actually means nothing.

if you're in bronze, tbh ranking doesn't really matter that much anyway. Everyone has lost a good number of matches at some point. Just focus on getting macro up and focus moreso on production of units/resources than specific strategies. I guarantee you if you do that, it'll carry you to gold very quick.

   
yeah i did my placement matches, but even if i lose to someone who is "better" than me i lose all my points, down to zero, no matter what, so basically i can never lose a match no matter how many points i have no matter how much better my opponent is, or im back to zero, its bullshit 

I'm not even gonna try to pretend i understand the ranking system. I've given up.

Every time I read one of these threads I wonder wtf game is everyone else playing?  Whenever my opponent is favored I gain more, lose less, and vice versa when I'm favored.  I've been playing this game since the beginning of the beta and never once can I recall that not being the case.
 
I don't know, maybe Blizzard just hates Bronzers?

Starcraft seems like a chore.

I leave all the playing to the good Starcraft players........I'll just watch^^

When the game first came out there was a glitch where you barely got points for winning. If you are playing favored opponents and not getting points that might be the case. Check the battle.net support forums.
