User blog comment:Madness Incarnate/The Mathematics and Psychology behind "Elo Hell"/@comment-173.52.166.10-20130110194950/@comment-5976327-20130110201525

Two things

One I am not a high elo player, I am an average player at best and sit securely in the space known as "elo hell".

Two my math is not random, I created models based on simplifications of the system. This is just plain and simple logic. Trolls are more likely to be on the other team than yours because there are more open seats for them on that team,  that is simple fact.
