seeing the webmaster of WGTour excusing with pgtour its just sad. I mean , think for once , you guys have flawed system that has the advantage over a private server of analyzing reps to determine whether a player won or not. Your points are terrible.

Exaclty which Webmaster "excuse" PGTour? If you're talking about AAR making that post about PGTour, he was discussed and removed from the Webmaster and Admin team for that. We apologized to the public afterwards too.

Not all people realize there's a difference between speaking as an admin, and speaking as a person.

That's a good idea. So how about it: how would you like to come and analyse dozens of replays every day, and deal with the dozens of complaints you'll get because you'll never be able to satisfy both players?

PGTour also received dozens of complaints daily that needed to be handled by analyzing replays, either because the server recorded incorrectly or because someone disconnected in the middle of a close game. All complaints did get handled, although not always as quickly as people would have liked.

While PGTour did automatically assign wins in the cases of disconnects, the server's decision was by no means final.
Think fast. Click faster.

PGT effectively removed HALF the complaints by having such a system. If a player who was losing disconnected, he'll just take the loss, resulting in no complaints. The only time when there was a complaint was when the disconnecting player was winning, which occurs half the time.

WGT receives a complaint whenever there is a disconnect. So even if a player who was losing disconnected, there would still be a complaint.

So tell me now, which system is better?

im not arguing which system is better because we all know pgtour was and will be, however now that pgtour has died, wgtour is the only real ladder to play and the stubborn admins dont know a fucking shit about games , most of them probably wouldnt pass c5 (only anon) and they fucking judge complaints like my blind gradma. And knowing wgt and their limitations , it would be real cool that at least , they had people that know a bit about the game analyzing the replays.

analyzing dozens of replays? by saying disc=loss you are getting from 1 corner to the other. They now need only 1 admin , who checks , screenshot of bwscanner? yes? then you lost.

My new way of playing wgtour will be playing all terran , and if i happen to loose , im gonna turn kazaa emule ares soulseek shearazza and every single thing it comes to my mind that i have installed to lag the shit out of my opponent and make him drop or leave.
