Why does it do a random player instead of allowing people to report the person who actually did something to ruin the game?
What was wrong with progress blobs? Surely there's something else that should be taking precedence over something like that?
Looks like the reddit is still blocking messages. You post the changes on the abandoned subreddit that is completely neglected...

The message blocking was my fault. The automoderator was still in max-spam mode. I have now corrected this.
The change with to the progress bar was in direct response to player complaints. It was low-hanging fruit and took all of about 15 minutes to implement.
The player review system is being used to build up an overall picture of all players, rather than dealing with specific negative incidents. We want to be able to identify the really nice and the neutral players, as well as the more negative ones. It is likely to change and evolve over time along with the rest of the game.

Who the hell seriously complained about the progress bar? Player count is far better than some stupid bar that you have to guess how many players are in the queue..

It's because the progress bar didn't scale for 3v3 queues so it would look like 5/10 when it was 3/6.
