first one to give up would be the loser


WCG has no special rules for this

"game length: winner is first to lose all buildings or if opponent gives up"



Hold on now, read carefully: "winner is first to lose all buildings or if opponent gives up"

Okay there are three articles in the fighter forum site.

#1 A Swedish reporter was interviewing Xellos and told Xellos how sad he was because he couldn't read Korean. He gets news/results of tourneys through pgr21.com and fighterforum.com and for some articles his english-korean friend translates it for him but not all the articles so he says everytime he wants to read something and he can't, he has tears in his eyes.

#2 "Loosing is harder than winning" In order to avoid Korean vs Korean, Midas has to loose on purpose to this russian in game 3. Midas went around from the day before worrying what he has to do in order to loose. He says he didn't want to be considered BM or hurt the Russian guy's feelings and wanted to put up a good game before loosing.

#3 The players in WCG are complaining because they can't practice. There aren't any computers in the dormitory(?) and players are complaining they are only getting warmed up while they play actual games for WCG. After the first day of starcraft, Cho Kyu Nam, the head coach of GO, said that his players finally found moniters for their computers brought from Seoul and predicted that the second day will be Korean Day.

The article went to say that "people close to Midas" (his coach? Xellos?) jokingly recommended to Midas that he only produce marines during the whole match. omg, so cruel.

It would be funny if Xello's accidently throws his game away against Advocate[S2] in the tournament, you know, to avoid Midas.

I'm pretty sure the money doesn't go to JUST the top 3... if you make a certain ranking youl'l get a small amount of cash.

Ouch, koreans. I don't know, I admire the koreans all the time but I am so waiting for the day when some super chogosu foreigner comes out of nowhere and just goes to korea like some wandering foreigner super gosu and goes undefeated in all three leagues lol just to prove that people can do it! The day will never happen but hey a man can dream can he not? :D

d4d did an interview for StarCraftGamers.com with him.

There are no computers at the hotel, and the players are only allowed to practice just before their match. It's WCG rules.

What about FORU? So midas and Xellos just completely ignore this guy and decide to sit on two ends of the bracket? WCG really should let all groups play simultaneously and keep the results secret for a few hours.

It's impossible to keep the results secret with all these people in a room together. Not to mention some matches are being shown live.

Midas says he doesnt want to seem BM, but this is one of the most BM things he can do. It seems as though the koreans are trying to make sure the greatest number of them possible have a chance to win it all or at least win money. They should take the luck of the draw, play their best, and leave it at that. Playing like this shows very little sportsmanship. I've lost a little respect for those guys.

Mmmmm I remember what you all did with Suker and Alfa at WCG Spain. Shouldn't you now put midas in a blacklist just like them?

They are all on the same team, probably will be sharing all winnings... So who cares? This is high stakes, it's hard for us to accept it. But they are playing professionally, most people who just play in their bedroom in their spare time wouldn't understand.

Haha this is great. That is probably the worst way to win a game - having Ddang suicide cheesing you, followed by a cocky smile, with the prize of looking forward to being raped by Xellos the next day. Poor Advocate
