Ohai, we're KESPA and we've decided someone needed to make the NFL's "pass interference" rule look like the work of a genius.

Or it could have been flickering in a way that made 2 Ps look like 3 unless more closely examined....
So it is kind of not important to note at all while the whole thing is a guessing game imho.

Yes they said the monitor was displaying properly, not completely blacked out. We need to see actual photos to judge that, trying to hunt some.

imo it doesn't really matter. these new rules are like the death penalty for littering. pp or ppp? it's not like zizi yo, and I don't see why that poses a problem.
This is my truth, tell me yours!

Not interviewing Kal, I can understand. Totally ignoring the issue, I don't.

I'm sure asking the other players can give feedback like 'KeSPA shouldn't have done that, blah blah', and if that happens, I can imagine KeSPA suing Fomos or creating malicious schemes to attempt to DQ that player.

Yeah... anyone else remember the story about the STX coach yelling at some ref a couple weeks ago? I think that sort of attitude probably rubs off on the whole team. Actually, the whole pro SC community seems pretty tight anyway.

I don't know who sit on KeSPAs board. I assume there is representation from KeSPA itself, Players representives, Broadcasting companies and Proteam representives.

Its annoying how everytime someone is blaming on KeSPA if something is done wrong as players and teams were deciding these things too. You are basically blaming players and team managers too.

edit: Who knows who was main guys requesting to change rules what players can type inside games, perhaps gamers itself? Remember Firefist vs Backho incident, perhaps players saw KeSPA as not decisive giving ruling how games should end and forced KeSPA to change rules so its same to everybody.

Coaches and team representatives are involved in giving suggestion and feedback, but the one who has the final say are the guys from KeSPA itself.

KeSPA has done some retarded shit but this is the worst so far. What the fuck are the retards thinking. These are the guys that refused to acknowledge lag as a problem. How could they even be trusted to deem if a computer is having graphical issues?
