I had three wins and was feeling pretty good about my placement matches, somewhat cautious about my fourth game after my streak. During my 4th placement match the Battlenet server had a slight hiccup of some sort and dropped me out from my game, promptly leaving it as "a loss" thanks to Battlenet's issue. Pretty sure its their fault, because I took a glance at my router and the internet was still functioning. Worst thing was that I think I was going to win that match too. Thankfully (or not) the next game someone just probe rushed me and gave me a win... <_<
 
I'm in gold league... I need to tell myself that it's a good league to be in (otherwise I might get my ass handed to me in platnium) but I can't help thinking that I have failed. FML. :3 
 
Oh. What league are you in?

Oh man, what great timing. The GSL game (Lennock vs. Clide) that was showing at the time just D/C'ed the players.  
Battle.Net knows what needs to be done and does it cause it can.
 
As for the whole rank thing - Don't worry about it, play the game for fun.

I'm in Diamond and I just play for fun. 
Only time I worry about doing good is when I'm in tournaments where I can win money (or cool swag). But yeah, the Battlenet kicking me out of a match has happened before but it usually happens after a ton of hours of play. I take it as a "You should only play 20 more games and then probably take a 3 minute break"

Just started watching after it happened but people on tl.net said it was actually one of the computers that crashed and not B.net... not sure tho  "

I was in platinum, but then I switched to playing on the Korean server, after I finally got my Korean account working properly. I play exclusively on the Korean server now, because I am living in Korea, at the moment, and the lag is less noticeable for me. Sadly, I'm still a Korean bronze, though I am at the top of my league (2100 or so) and due for a bump soon, as I play mostly silvers and golds. All I have to say, when I go on the North American servers and play platinums, I usually just destroy them, even with the terrible lag I've started getting. If I was to guess, I would say that I am on par with low level North American diamonds. 
 
The NA server is not even remotely on par with the KR server, with exception of high level diamond players, where the skill levels are far more similar. That is so say, the average rank-and-file Korean player is really good --- the stereotypes are true.
