Does anyone know how the promotion system works?
I have been top of my silver league for ages, and have been winning quite a lot of my games, mostly against Platinum opponents, but I seem to be stuck in silver.
Is there anything I need to do to get promoted?

sigh lost as protoss vs a terran pro.. it was a 2 vs 2, then 1 of the opponents left, me and another terran ally... my ally built lots of battlecruisers, marauders etc, we attacked yet still lost. While I did helped out with zealots, walkers, carriers and even observers to detect stealth units. the enemy prevented us from expanding, destroyed my expansion 3 times, and my ally lost a few times too (just the 1st expansion and we couldnt sustain it). Next he often come harrass our base using cloaking units and flyers (vikings banshee etc, due to the fact it was a floating platforms, we placed turrets near the edge later on), then came with thors as well + many ground units (helions, troops). We were able to counter all since it was a 2 vs 1, but near the end we lost coz we just couldnt stand his last wave after losing minerals from the prime base. He defeated us with many vikings, battlecruisers, thors (no siege tanks used here) it was total lost.. super difficult.. HE WAS REALLY PRO.

Wow, I just had a dream about SC now. Was one of the civillian trying to run away from imminent zerg infestation. Hijacked an abandoned CC, flying away avoiding mutalisks and infested Terrans. Word was that Kerrigan was coming tomorrow. What a nightmare.

I have the biggest question on my mind,
"Fake APM boost" - why the need of it?
No doubt the most replays i've seen are from good players, but why the need of fake boosting APM to 200-300 in the beginning of the game? what are they trying to prove?
and what ticked me off the most is that it happens to like 90% of the replays that i've watched, and it's starting to get lame.

QUOTE(jitan @ Aug 23 2010, 06:16 PM) er.. what is "Fake APM Boost".. sorry i don know those term in sc2... @@ APM = Action per minute which measure how quickly are you performing in a game or how fast are you multitasking. Fake boosting means that they are spamming USELESS action in the beginning of game like spam hotkeying between buildings and unit in the beginning of game where all you can really do is sit around and do almost nothing other than occasional training and scouting. Its annoying because i am trying to gauge a genuine average good player APM against mine and all i get is uberhigh rubbish average APM which means nothing. You can see this APM from replay.
