I don't really know if yall are being "sarcastic" or not due to the no smiley faces and stuff so I'm asking, did they really change it just for boxer so that he could be in the next osl to win the gold mouse or did they just change "all of the sudden" and boxer lucked out and is now able to win the golden mouse?
All of the sudden.
Its the antiboxer dudes that keeps complaining.

im not really antiboxer. i just find all of the coincedences sort of funny and suspicious =P

Officially, Boxer has no influence on the format change. It's just that there have been a couple incidents where OGN did something to seemingly rig things for Boxer, so people are speculating whether OGN is really trying to rig it for Boxer.
But if they really wanted to make sure Boxer was in Starleague, he wouldn't have been put through such rough groups. For example, if he switched groups with Casy, he would have had a great shot at qualifying on the first go. Instead, he got put in a tough group with rA and rock, and then after, got put into THE group of death in the newest batch of dual league groups, so I don't think they're rigging it in his favour, and that their intent on expanding starleague is genuine.

I was talking about the pausing in the beginning;)

Anytime is pause-master. No OSL final had been paused before him vs Boxer

He was changing his mouse speed and paused by accident >_<
He recieved one warning for that.

When someone pauses the game on accident, the match has to be reset?

Nal_rA won his first Starleague by playing all PvT's the entire tournament. Not true. In second stage groups he was with Zeus, Kingdom, and Nada, and he lost to Nada. In semis he won agaisnt Jju. In final he won against Zeus. Well, as for the first stage groups, dont know all the players he was with, just Boxer.

boxer could not be in casy's position in ODT round 2 because casy was 4th in OSL. boxer was 5th-8th.
boxer then had 2 zergs to rape up anytime while he raped up the zergs.
i'm not saying its rigged, but your arguments aren't proving that its not.

First matches kick off in about 5 hours right, or is it another day away.

Well BOxeR's group was the "Death group". AnyTime, JJu, BoxeR, and the new guy with amazing potention, Sea.Jy who beat NaDa 2-0 already.
And if you saw Sea.Jy vs BoxeR, that was no walk in the park. I honestly have never seen a zerg play like that on his first ever televised match. It was amazing and had BoxeR sweating. Despite BoxeR having the luck to only face 2 zergs, it wasn't an easy win. And JJu is not push-over either (though his zvt was diaspointing)

I KNEW THEY WOULD EXPAND THE SIZE. YESSSSS. God I had been hoping they would do this for soooooo long. It totally makes sense. I almost think it shoulda been 32 in OSL and 48 in ODT though, but eh;] good enough.
|
oh and it figures they would give boxer a 2nd shot at getting in;[ He is probably pretty big ratings for them.
If only Reach was in this it would be like the best OSL ever.

Anybody have any idea who the 5th and 6th seeds are in the next OSL?
People who finished 5th-8th: BoxeR, Midas, GooDFriend, and Rock.

the easiest thing would be:
1 oov
2 july
3 pusan
4 casy
5 sea (odt r1 winner)
6 nal_ra (the other odt r1 finalist)
would be easier than to think out which two of the four osl quarterfinal losers get the seeds
