The icon your talking about isnt for the wcg, I dont believe. That icon is for people connected to b.net chat with an unknown source, such as a bot.

Connecting with a bot would still give you an icon wouldn't pending on the key you used to connect with.

The question mark refers to the fact that battle.net can not identify what it is connected at.

You would see alot more of these 2 years ago, before blizzard began restricting bots. awhil ago, u didnt need a cdkey to put a bot on bnet and you could move the bot anywhere and do pretty much anyhting with it.

Most of those icons with questions marks are WCG Players becuz if you profile them you will see a new set of wins and losses with no title ( thus being used for WCG).

Edit: My bad...Now theres an actually WCG player Icon. Its pink!
