You can't just declare a boycott, you're being melodramatic and stupid. Talk to people privately, get the majority to sign up and then maybe you might have something less than a joke. If you can't back your words up then you just sound silly. I'm not saying I agree with the farcical running of WCG USA but that doesn't change the fact. | ||

anyways im sure MasterOfChaos or similar would offer their LL an AH for use in the qualifiers, after all i'm lead to believe these tools are made for the community (and not for any intended profits) and this event sounds like its in dire need. | ||

And he isn't declaring one, he's just trying to rally support for the idea. | ||

Why would Samsung, a Korean Company, give a flying fuck if there are SC players from the US competing in WCG (an event of which they are the primary sponsor) ;p? SC will be gone from WCG soon anyway, with SC2 being released.

I'm assuming this is because they have to host games in "WCG" mode? Sort of like what KBK used to have.. In which case what he says is perfectly valid - they DO need Blizz to approve the maps before hand, I'm pretty sure. Anyway, maybe that's not how it works, just saying it might be. | ||

This is such an awesome idea, maybe we should have someone do it I'd love to see "WCG sucks" written in pylons/units or just have the player spam ingame: "WCG Sucks" | ||

The so-called American 3-tie shithead (Idra's word)? Korean pro-gamers? Don't take yourself as sth, man. In amateur's world no one knows you. In pro's world no one knows you. PATHETIC. I couldn't play in that even even if I wanted to, so I can't be much help with the boycott though. :D | ||

I believe this is a good way of letting the WCG USA staff know how seriously the community is viewing their (lack of) organization. +1 for political activism. | ||
