Don't be so quick with the preferential treatment accusations. This kinda thing quickly happens when there's inexperienced admins. So if the story is true that doesn't necessarily mean corrupt admins, might just mean a brand new one and some bad communication. That is, if the story's true.

yep, that is pretty ridiculous. It only happened because he's a known player, so they showed favoritism. If you are unknown you are screwed...well that is what happened in this instance.

just rofl at going back two roundS AFTER matches had been played just incompetence there.

Yea, I keep refreshing craftcup's website, I wanna see what their "official" explanation ends up being.

Kralic's comments on first page truly show there are retarded people on the internet.

The original poster is sharing his experience with the starcraft 2 community in regards to a starcraft 2 tournament and you start trolling with useless questions and comments.

CraftCup should offer a legitimate explanation for their actions or be shunned by the community, its really that simple.

You are a bad troll. Craftcup is making an explanation for it following their tournament. Thanks for the compliment that I am retarded, I will try better to please the masses on the internet.

From what it seems it was an admin fault, one way or the other. This means that they should have a worked out plan on how to act in such situations... and the solution should not harm the participants in any way. That's what the admins are for - to keep it fair for everyone. Really curious for their official response.

I agree they need to remove that admin. If there is any favoritism in tournaments, then it's not a tournament, it's a joke. The purpose of admins is to force their own rules, not dodge them.

Seems like no matter which way you look at it, favouritism or not, one of the admins is majorly at fault.

On a one-day-tourney liek this, you can't just show up 30mins late. If everyone would do that you wouldnt be finished until next week.

Once an admin tells you you are through, and you already played your 3rd match, it should stand. If you didnt play your 3rd match yet then by all means, you should play your R2 match with Nightend.

This smells fishy... Even if Nightend was given a 30min "break" so to say, and the miscommunication happened on their end, you shouldn't be punished for it. In that case, i think Nightend shouldve been "punished" for it since he had to go where he had to play a game, permission or no permission.

Curious what they will say about this

I'm Norwegian/Dutch. Just the awesome parts of them though :D
