Geoff - sending your emails isnt going to make it go any faster. I sent emails to korea a few days ago. I'll get a response just as fast as anyone else.

What I'm saying is, by the time that person gets caught, you have already loss. It's not like they are just going to give you a qualifying spot, unless it happened in the final 4 or 2.

I don't look at bw chart after my games, I don't know USA gamers hotkeys... I don't know why the admin would either. Last year, the only person who viewed the replays were the admin(s) (if they even watched...).

you can have someone play for you on a ladder too, if you cant recognize a smurf or hotkey signatures you're not gonna catch someone whether you have 1 or 50 replays to look at.


It's theoretical, but let's assume some noob had someone else play for them. The way I see it is that there are 2 more ways that person could be found out in a ladder than he would in a tourney. Sure, I don't know the hotkeys, but it is a ladder, so he will be playing everyone else, so someone else could easily see that. Or, that information simply gets leaked out, and that person gets removed from the ladder -- no damage done.

What it boils down to: In a ladder, even if someone abuses, if someone notices it -- they won't have an effect on the tournament. In a tourney -- if someone abuses and the admins don't resolve the situation immediately, then the tournament will be effected, whether abuse eventually becomes apparent or not.

I got a response from Korea about Lan Latency

They are working on adding lan latency right now, but they are unsure of when they will be able to implement it. Also the reason the maps have been stagnant is because Blizzard wont add any new maps to battle.net for WCG.

Laurent I actually had a text conversation/email conversation WITH 2 people we both know the day I had that MSN conversation with you and got no reply(from you) while I got immediate responses->policy changes from the 2 men.. please don't tell me I don't get results faster. As far as we are concerned I am the only one getting results. I am glad to hear you are emailing now but making a post to simply state that my attempts are futile is only going to bring you public shame.. er more of that.

why dont you ask those 2 men, who did the leg work to get your problems solved......

I never give an answer in these situations before actually receiving one.

And i saw both your text and email conversations. Im well aware of what you discussed. And believe me, you are the one in for some shame.

laurent? You really wanna go down this road? I'm not under any fucking contract by wcg in regard to this tourney. It isn't my job to not suck ass like you have. No fucking shit you did the leg work that is your job.. the one you wouldn't do until I had to go around you and speak to some people who would get your ass moving.

God damn you infuriate me. You literally do a shitty job.. I mean you absolutely responded to each of my complaints with "send an email on the gamon website" or "korea makes the decisions, I am powerless" which is bullshit. You COULD have said "I will see to it that these complaints reach the right people" or HELL heres a novel concept you coulda had some backbone and answered the shit from your own brain.. that'd be a blast wouldn't it.

I tried to play nice Laurent but the passive aggressive bullshit in your last message has started a shit storm. I hope to God you are really secure with what you have done thus far.

and if you truly read those emails/text messages you'd know I clearly state each time "he is a great guy, he just didn't handle this correctly" which is the exact kind of constructive criticism WCG employees NEED to hear when shit like this happens

"believe me you are the one to be put to shame"

What is that childish bullshit? You are the professional here laurent.. act like it.

Noone got my ass moving , I did it on my own. And you didn't go around anyone. You claimed right after US Finals last year that you would change the world. You basically told everyone that WCG USA was in your back pocket. I havent seen one thing you said was going to happen, actually happen. The difference is , I tell people the truth, how things are. I dont predict the future nor do I attempt to. You think you know everything, but you barely even know whats on the top layer. Actually you are supposed to be the professional , according to you I'm just doing what a warm body would do. Dont forget you are the one saying your going to shame me some more.

Guess what, I responded with the truth. Which is how this should be handled.

hmmm... none of this is helping me get lan lat on 5/18 when I'm going to be putting my heart into qualifying for the first time since there was an offline regional in 03. I care about THAT.

Oh I see it laurent. You hate me cause I have an optimistic outlook for wcg. I think shit can change. I think people can do things differently. Guess what has changed? The maps. I got them to change the maps. Guess what else has changed? According to your email they are trying to get lan latency in there.. did you mention shit about maps? lan latency? I bet you had NO idea about these things prior to me discussing them.

As far as a bw player goes I do "have wcg in my back pocket" if that means I have direct communication/relationships with the people who make decisions. I am trying to improve something that is really important to this community. Your terrible fucking attitude (you were the guy nay-saying my thread that was trying to raise ideas for improvement -- you are the guy IN THIS THREAD acting ignorant as all hell) is doing nobody any good.

Calling you a warm body was evidently a complement. Making passive aggressive threats to a person who is literally ONLY TRYING TO DO SOME GOOD is gonna get you nowhere bucko. Put your pride where the sun don't shine and maybe you can help this community as oppose to trying this "I am the voice of truth" crap.. we don't buy into the doom and gloom.

From what I've seen, iNc has said he knows a lot of the people involved in WCG, so he could possibly talk to them and resolve some of the problems that make WCG USA a pile of shit each year.
You have said you can't do anything about the fact that it's a pile of shit because it's ran by WCG Korea. Why are you even here?

I dont hate you, I hate how you BOAST about all your contacts and how you are going to make everything better.

Yea you are right, you are optimistic, and im just being a realist. Im not claiming that either is the right way to handle it. But I believe that telling people the truth , and being happily surprised when something does change is better than telling people that things are going to change and playing the waiting game , only making people more frustrated w. no results.

You did take the initiative and polled for the maps, and thats great, but the maps that won your poll that werent originally on the list, havent been changed.

You just dont get that the whole point of coming here was to make sure peoples questions got answered and that they got truthful answers of whats actually going on.

And please, clarify, that you made the threats to shame me first. I chose to fire back.

This can only get better
When the spirit is not altogether slain, great loss teaches men and women to desire greatly, both for themselves and for others.

If you could read as well as you could nay-say the organization you work for you'd be able to comprehend what I actually said which was "You are going to shame yourself"

That has nothing to do with ME shaming YOU like you impossibly implied you'd do to me in your post.

Maps don't need to be added to battle.net. Players can simply download maps and create them on any server, including all battle.net servers

what? since when does wcg hire tools

edit: Shit, they always have.

Incontrol forget about it, wcg has never catered to the needs of bw gamers.

It's 2009, why now
