Team finished just over .500 last season at 83-79 in Gold .292, missing the playoffs three days from the end of the season. I figured, "Hey, that's not all that bad, at least I won't get demoted and I'll have another chance in Gold again!"
Apparently that was enough to get promoted to Diamond, so hello to my fellow teams in Diamond .318! I am almost certainly one of very few free-to-play teams in this league, but making it this far in the first place, what given the terrible decisions I've made with my points and terrible pack luck, I'm not complaining!
This is near-certainly the first season I don't advance leagues, and likely the first in which I get demoted, but again, I have no complaints, as being here in the first place is beyond expectations!
