I always wondered why does player with big "name", such has reckrul, artosis etc never get temp ban ( or maybe they are some time, but i never saw it). It's that i dont find their post funny or anything, but some time i think they turn some post in huge drama storry and find it sad (funny but sad) And btw Happy birthday reckrul.

Sad, sad, sad ....Hey Strelok, u are our WCG Champion ! Be a man and replay that game. I can understand your anger, but be above of that unprofessional decision making. Its bad for SC, its bad for valor and its bad for u, because u are definitely capable of winning this tournament.

Furthermore publish that replay and make a poll, so the community can decide which one of the decisions were right !

Facts:
1. It was bad for the admins to make a decision and go back on it.
2. Strelok can justifiably by upset about that.
3. Fenix AND strelok should not have lost because of this.
3a. This means that Fenix deserved the regame as a close game -> disconnect should never be awarded a win in tourney play AND strelok should be man enough/have a cool head to accept a shitty decision WHICH MEANS he recovers from admins flipping a decision.
4. Artosis made the right decision to have them replay game 2.


whoohoo! can't argue with facts.

I love it when someone lists their own opinion as a fact... It almost makes them sound reasonable.

------

People must have missed it when strelok said that he would have accepted 0-1 if that had been the decision in the first place.

Also, 1 week (really?) of training for a tourney and then all your time spent goes to the toilet when the admins change their decision... I guess Strelok's time must not be worth much to you guys!

ps. oh shit rekrul drama inserted into thread, AND he whines about strelok adding drama to the issue... world explodes

All the big names rarely get banned. It's an admin decision. I also believe rekrul might still be an admin. I know he was at one time.

Guys, you are messing different things.

If the game 2 was really very close, it should be replayed.
If the Lipton behaved bad as a judge, he should be banned as a judge for the rest of the tournament.

We should be fair to Fenix, and so the game should be replayed.
We should be fair to Strelok, and so Lipton should be banned as a judge.

Strelok, you shouldn't ask to return to the first decision, because it was unfair decision. However you can ask to ban Lipton as a judge, you have all the rights to ask for this satisfaction.

Lipton as a real man should give to Strelok such satisfaction, and Strelok as a real man should accept it and replay the game 2.

They aren't going to temp-ban him on his birthday.

Besides, he's THE man.

I would say that making a drama thread on the forum home to Artosis' friends, against Artosis' opinion, is very manly... I would have shat my pants and accepted the hard truth instead of risking public humilliation from Rekrul coming into the thread and making gigantic posts that make all the nerds get wet.

Usually Rekrul writes trolling trash but this time he's right.
Decency and the right decision should ALWAYS win.
Strelok acted like a dick.... and still is.

The only information I need is that Strelok was offered 1-1 and took it. Any respectable player would have declined immediately and asked for a re-game.
Now he's bitching about the right decision? Grow some balls.

Why would they get banned for telling the truth?

I have to say Artosis very clearly defended the change in rulings and there was no valid counter argument by Strelok.

How would Strelok feel if the situation was reversed?

That Lipton and Daniel Lee would both decide that the alternative to letting a disconnect decide game two should be a replay of the entire series is mind-bogglingly stupid. It doesn't take "experience as an admin" or StarCraft knowledge to realize that such a decision is moronic -- just common sense.

Strelok has a right to withdraw from the tournament and of course he was wronged by Lipton's wishy-washyness, but letting such a decision stand would have been unacceptable. And as other posters are pointing out, the manner thing to do would have been to refuse the 1-1 and ask for a replay of game 2 right off.

However, let's keep in mind that it's the job of tournament administrators to avoid situations in which players must act against their own interests for a fair solution to be reached.

Imho not only the admins are supposed to behave professionally but also the players. I find it highly unprofessional to try to get a freewin and then leave crying when it doesn't work. I have nothing against strelok personally but this post also seems like it was made to get people on his side without telling them the truth (because if they knew it they wouldn't agree with him) and that is also very unprofessional and childish.
