I didn't mock and taunt Sentenal on IRC, that's entirely unfounded.

I started by wanting to run two teams, but appoint two captains and just be a PR guy and keep the two captains working hard. Then I realized I wouldn't really be able to find two captains, and people brought up the problems of one person running two teams, so I changed to wanting one team I run and one team someone else runs. There's no "tacking on" or fabrication going on, it's just me changing my mind for exactly what I want, as some of the criticism of the two team idea is legitimate and I'm willing to change my stance on things when given good argumentation. Echo particularly gave some good points.

Most likely the team split is going to happen, we just need one more player to have the minimum for me to be happy with the split, and a couple more would be a nice couple of 7man teams which is a good number.

Well, that was all quite a read. I come home from a last-day-of-school party and realize there were 3 new pages in this thread and 2 new PM's and thought to myself, "man, I'm pretty popular nowadays, eh?"

After some thought and reading arguments for each side, I'm hopeful that Lmaster will agree, or understand my "solution".

sGs.BaBo is effectively banned from future D-rank events for cheating via account sharing in CRTL with a B- ranked player. BaBo won't be playing versus rauk in the finals, SunKhan will have to find a replacement Protoss to play in his place. However, SunKhan WILL be playing in the playoffs, as the fact that the team legitimately beat TAKK in the semi-finals shouldn't be taken away from BaBo's wrongdoing. I hope neither side forfeits any of the sets because of one person's mistake.

I know what BaBo did had nothing to do with the D-rank events, but it is simply punishment. Even if BaBo was E, D, C, B, A, or S rank, the fact that he would do something like that he did shows that he is capable of doing it again, no matter how much remorse and regret he feels about doing it. I don't think BaBo should be criticized for hitting C, as he was already open to retiring from D-ranks anyway, and same with rauk, he wasn't going to argue that he had a "poor winrate" or anything like that, he was getting ready to move on as well.

Yea, sync's decision stands, as I do see both DRTL/CRTL as tied leagues, in the sense that they are skill cap leagues. Willingness to cheat in one calls into question ones integrity for the other. That integrity is critical to the league's functioning properly and equitably.

As such BaBo cannot play finals, and at least the next DRTL season (though he was already too high skill to continue).

BaBo...I am disappoint. While I believe you didnt cheat in DRTL, what you did was still pretty lame. I suppose this illustrates why its always best to stick to the straight and narrow. Eventually stuff comes out, aand now you've lost tons of face...which is unfortunate given that you have good, thought out decisions and a level head (even if you do like to troll).

Didnt you just say at the start of DRIT that you were leaving the d leagues because you considered yourself too good?
