i mostly agree with what dragon said and the way he said it. i think his concern holds truth, his arguments are fine, he isn't being overly dramatic, and he isn't a "little person" for speaking his mind in a well-mannered tone. however, i think scan should definitely be allowed to participate.
personally i will probably not prepare as much if he does as i would otherwise (which is basically the main thing dragon was saying), but i might not prepare as much even if he didn't. who gives a shit? i don't think i should be "catered to" by banning scan because he further accumulated his skill advantage while i did other shit.

i also must say this huge break was a pretty fucking big letdown to the point where i didn't even care if this thing ever happened anymore, which i realise has already been apologised for profusely but whatever.

@2pac Race stats have nothing to do with positional imbalance.
@scan You tried to sell your replays and bm eon for telling facts? Your image is self owned by your behaviour and the abuse in the previous TLS.

Guess thats the necessary contribution to the community which compensate the other facts.

These are good suggestions and something that we're willing to change as we go along.

I remember some discussion about positional imbalance in Paranoid Android, but I don't think it was that big as you make it seem. TLPD shows it has almost perfect race stats: http://www.teamliquid.net/tlpd/international/maps/124_Paranoid_Android

However, we'll investigate if the mineral difference is enough to make a difference and either fix the map or change it altogether.

Race stats are irrelevant as this is a positional advantage issue. I could easily be overestimating the advantage, but any advantage that a player gets from spawning in a certain position, regardless how big, is a bad thing. It could probably easily be fixed by changing the layout of the 1 o'clock base so that the minerals are on the left side, so that each player still has easy access to the other player's mineral line via air.

Eonzerg mentioned changing the natural, but honestly I'd love for the rest of the map to stay as it is. Current playstyles don't work too well on older maps, and I think it'd be better to throw in different maps like Paranoid Android where a Protoss can't easily FE but a 1 Gate tech or 2 Gate build work perfectly fine. Or where a Zerg can't easily grab a natural that has a main right behind it, basically grabbing two bases at once. Sometimes I like to go back and watch some of those old WCG games, and there were some crazy scenarios (example: + Show Spoiler +) that occurred, and IMO those make for the best games. Fighting Spirit, Match Point, and Circuit Breaker are all very standard maps, it's cool to throw in a curve ball, in my opinion at least. The positional advantage is the only thing I worry about.

Edit: Also I haven't actually said it but thanks to everyone involved for hosting this tournament. I thought I had completely quit PC gaming but seeing this makes me wanna start playing BW again, and the temptation is quite big.
