They didn't include Idra because


IdrA is not included due to bad sportsmanship in our recent Holiday Special tournament. I know that question will come up eventually, so there's your answer.

Now get voting already!


But the title is " Best Non-Korean of the Year"

No Sen either....aside from Huk, everyone on the list is European.

So in a poll of who is what I assume to be a contest of who is most technically proficient and skilled at a game they exclude a player because they don't like how they act?

Wow the people that run that website need to grow up.

Definitely between Jinro and Idra.

Since Idra isn't there its Jinro.

What did Idra do in the holiday special tournament? All i can see is that he was replaced by WhiterRa, and that Idra also didn't want any streaming on his game due to him playing from Korea on NA servers....

So.... what did Idra do exactly?

Also, why wouldn't Loner or Sen be included? Does GosuGamers know that Asian =/= Korean?

QXC is on there. He is American. I think I gotta go for Jinro, the big results don't lie.

Qxc doesn't really belong does he? Maybe i just underestimate him.

It's Jinro for me, no doubt about it.

A better question is what did the GG.net admins do to idra?

White ra! Who's with me!?!?

Also: I'm glad they include personality in their decisions, whether what idra did was bad enough to be dq'd I don't know, but I'm glad it's a factor.

From Enron on GG:

17: "TO ANSWER ALL THE "WHY" QUESTIONS: The reason why a player didn't make it among the 10 nominees is because these players were considered as better candidates. IdrA showed very bad sportsmanship in our GosuGamers Holiday Special, which is not appropriate if you want to be among the candidates for the best non-Korean of the year."

24: "Would you host a tournament, have the player act badly towards you with very bad sportsmanship trying to make the tournament complicated for you, then nominate him for the best player of 2010 in your own awards?"

From your post (OP) it seems you're trying to stir up a argument regarding the idra exclusion...

Should have just added IdrA instead of starting some completely unnecessary drama. Unless starting drama was their goal, in which case they have succeeded... in a sad way.
Do an arranged marriage if she's not completely minging, and don't worry about dancing, get a go-kart, cheers.

On the GG.net forums I only did write this exact sentence:

"Please, slow down on "gosu" term (about Naugrim and Zpux) as real gosus outside South Korea really existed when Grrr and Elky were active progamers".

And they denied (nuked) that comment xD

Sorry, if you don't include one of the most accomplished players of the entire year because he was BM then your award has zero credibility imo. How can you call an award "Best Non-Korean" and then include reasoning that has nothing to do with his merit, skill or accomplishments...Call it "The All Round Nice Guy And Decent Player Award".

IdrA is definitely the best foreigner of 2010. Jinro had a lot of success towards the end, but IdrA has maintained a level of success from beta to now. Even though he has been eliminated early in the GSL's, qualifying for all three is impressive.

Maybe a poll should be run on TL with Idra and a lot of the other players they chose to not include

Sen may have not played a lot of tournaments but he is an amazing Zerg player.
