why not impose a penalty? Step away from the keyboard for 10 seconds when opponent unpauses. I think that would be enough of a slap to stop random pauses...
an overdeveloped sense of self preservation

That would be no different from quitting the game.

They should pause near the start of every game and say "Wait"

Then it would be just like playing koreans on PGT.

This does seem kind of harsh. So I guess they can only pause if something is really wrong. If it was so early in the game I dont see why they didnt just give his opponent the chance to start over if he felt he was fucked over from the pause.

No, if something is really wrong then I guess the referee pauses the game.

when i saw the title i assumed it was to do with the MSL final and was like oh no wtf happened someone die?

now that i've read this i'm just as outraged i guess you could say. sure the rule is there for a reason, but it's not major. imo rules should be broken in such circimstances, or the rule should be more flexible regarding real life circumstances i.e. put it to refs decision if the player paused the game.

They just replayed the game.

I didn't watch this game, but how early was it?


at that time there is no rule about it..
i think the rule has made...since april [because of the game of Anytime
i paused during match i cant remember the reason, and the rule was made]


it was the worst day for KTF fans..
i know a rule must be there for some reason, though T_T

Poor Ra.

He should have just used "Alt - o" to get the options. even if he hit alt p, nothing happens!!

-_- It's nothing but an accident... People easily misjudge players for making mistakes like this

But seriously, progamers should stop fucking around things like this during the game. they can change the settings while they're warming up

I just realized this, but if the players aren't supposed to pause, why don't they just disable the pause function on the OGN comps/games/maps/something?

It sucks because it was a mistake.. but like I said earlier.. its really Ra's fault too. Why do you think there's such a long time between games? It's so the players can set up. That includes messing with sensitivity, sound, whatever. He had the entire prep time to prepare, then chooses to change it at the start of the game. It was a stupid mistake that resulted in a huge penalty, but the players know the rules. (The rules are shitty imo, but they're there.. and probably for a reason).

Is it possible to disable access to a command like that, much less disable it for the players and then not for the referee/observer?
