Everyone in Olympic and A+ ranks was a Korean progamer, anyone from A to B+ was a very, very, very solid player. B and B- were also very hard to get.

One night I decided to play some games. I lost the first one and then won something like 14 straight and went from C to B-, pretty much exclusively against Koreans. Some of the people I beat ended up getting B+, meaning they were really, really good. Those were definitely the highest level games I've ever played and when you hit that rank, you get respect from a lot of people. Man that game was fun.
