My friend Grooverut still plays a lot so I'm sure he'll key me in on any cool announcements.
I also think one of the other huge reasons I quit was because of the 4-vote surrender requirement, and the fact that it wasn't set to 15 minutes. I still think it should be 3/5 requirement and 15 minute.
The third biggest reason I quit was because of the large sample size of games required to prove your Elo. My normal game Elo was 1750ish, but no one could ever see it, and then ranked normal matches are frustrating because yo dawg, I herd you like 1300 elo so I put you at 1300 elo so you can lose while you lose. I don't get why they didn't start everyone at their normal game elo in season 1. New people should certainly start that low, but people who have 1000 games played already shouldn't be paired with lower elo people, ever. It really soured my season 1 experience and made me hate playing ranked games. After a few hundred ranked matches my elo was still at where it started. That's messed up because I KNOW I'm better than that.
