Interestingly enough this problem would NEVER occur if kespa could just keep the computers working. How hard is it to set up a computer that can run BW?

I guess it's because "pp" is very similar to "gg" so it can results in another "zizi yO" incident.

most of the pause request are due to players own personal mouse or keyboard dieing.

I think there was such a case before. IIRC the player paused the game himself (and he didn't get DQ'd)

I also hate the TL crusaders against "bad manner" whose delicate & fragile sensibilities are deeply offended by just about anything. "I don't want to see someone typing gg no re omg, my fragile psyche can't take such awful bad manner". Fucking pathetic.

So yea here are the official rules


제8조 선수의 요청으로 인한 경기중단

아래에 명시된 사항에 부합될 때 선수는 채팅창에 자판의 “P”키를 연타함으
로써 경기 일시 중단 요청을 할 수 있으며, (단, 키보드의 입력에 문제가 생
길 때에는 거수로 경기 중단 요청을 한다.) 심판은 Pause 명령을 내림으로
써 경기를 중단시킨다. 해당경기는 “심판판정”규정에 따른다

Translation =

Clause 8 Time out due to player's request

Under the following conditions, a player can type the "p" key on the keyboard multiple times and request a time out, (However, if there is a problem with the keyboard the player must request a time out by raising his hand.) and the referee will give a Pause command and grant a time out. [In case the game cannot continue] The game will be ruled according to the "Referee decision" rule...

Soooooooooo technically Leta didn't even break the rule, because it doesn't say that it has to be ppp, it just has to be multiple strokes of 'p'. This is fucking retarded Kespa hasn't made any official comments/apologies about it yet.

I think that the teams coaches and the players are being too impotent about this. An American football coach would bend the KESPA referee over a coffee table and penetrate him with foreign objects for a call like that.

KESPA is just a big power-trip.

Fuck kespa is stupid

I remember when they came out with the new rules and I was complaining about how stupid it was to not allow people to say other forms of GG and PP and not allowing ceremonies and how it was ruining the game.

Funny how when I said that everyone told me QQ

It is the new and revised rules. Check for yourself: http://www.progamer.or.kr/about/about_32_1.kea?m_code=about_32

(Even if you can't read korean, try looking for section 8, it shouldn't be too difficult, and try to match character by character, you'll see it is the official rule regarding timeouts posted on kespa's website.)

edit::

Here's a post that Leta made on his blog at the end of that day. Korean and translated.
(Source: http://blog.naver.com/mnbgyuiop?Redirect=Log&logNo=150046748707)

안녕하세요 ';'

Hello

오늘 조금 불미스러운 일이있어서 ㅠㅠ ,, ';' 주의를 줄지 알았지만 몰수패란 소리를 듣고 조금 어이없기도하고

Today there was an unfortunate event T_T I knew I would get a warning but I was taken back when he disqualified our team for that.

컴퓨터 문제인데,난 pp 를 쳤는데 라는생각이 들고 그랬었는데 아쉬운일이지만 제가 잘못한거겠죠~?ㅠㅠ 그런거겠죠?.

My computer was malfucntioning so I thought I was ok typing 'pp'.. I really regret it but it's my fault in the end? T_T Right?

저 때문에 팀도 지고... 분위기도 많이떨어질꺼 같기도 하고 아쉽지만 오늘 일은 빨리 잊을수있도록 해야겠어요.

My team lost cuz of me... and I'm really worried that this might put our team down but I will try my best to try to forget about today's incident.

이문제 때문에 팬분들께서 많이 걱정해주실꺼 같은데 전 이런일 때문에 의기소침해 있지 않아요 ㅎㅎ;

I'm worried my fans might be really worried about me but I can assure you I won't let this affect my gameplay hehe

많이 응원해주시면 계속 좋은 모습보여드릴테니 많이 응원해주세요!!

Please cheer for me I'll try my best to show you the best of me!!
