If this is the case then what the hell is Enron spewing and why can't he just say that? Or is it because excluding Idra because he forfeited is such a bullshit reason that the poll would be worse than it already is lmao

the incident they're referring to, i qualified for their christmas tour thing
when they messaged me to get online to play the final 8 i realized that i was actually banned from gosugamers so it would be inappropriate to play in the tournament and forfeited my spot.

Idra won the King of the Beta Hill tournament and consistently won or had the highest average placing in tournaments he DID enter, the one week he enters a GC weekly he rolls through that shit without dropping much. Steamrolled through tournament after tournament, and was always THE guy that people feared most.



Pretty much my assessment as well. Jinro and Idra are both fantastic players, Idra is more feared in tournaments though, and he's been doing it since February 17th.

As a year overall, I'd have voted for Idra. Not that Jinro is far behind because the two are neck and neck.



probably scenario:

Enron: Hmmm, time to start up a poll for player of the year, I wonder who it should be, lets see

Huk? Check
qxc? Check
Jinro? Check
Idra? HUMPH :'( He didn't play in my tournament that he qualified for, so BM, WELL I'LL SHOW HIM, I' GONNA EXCLUDE HIM

*feels all mighty for a moment*

hehe, let me post about this poll on team liquid with a 1 sentence justification on why I don't like Idra, and THEN when the polls over everyone will forget about Idra because he's not worthy of my award!!!

Even with Idra in, I don't think hes the best. Overall Dimaga left the most impression on me. He was an early pioneer for zerg and really revolutionized its play. All Idra did was the same thing over and over while dimaga was playing way ahead of everyone and invented so many strategies and popularized so many tactics like creep tumor spreading. Also his attitude is the total opposite of Idra's.

Huk on the other hand tended to choke on some important occasions like GSL and ESL. TLO didn't win as many tourneys as he should and him going away from korea is a big no no. Jinro, although he did really well in GSL and MLG he wasn't the best overall. Hes the best foreigner right now but not the best in 2010 overall.

The rest were just OK not totally outstanding.. White-Ra's performance dropped because of marriage which is understandable, tarson doesn't even deserve to be on there, and morrow switched to zerg........................... Naama's won a big tourney but we shall see if he is a one hit wonder.

i think it's a valid point to consider personality if it is titled E-Sportsman of the year or something.

Kinda like if some guy is having a scandal, he won't be Sportsman of the Year or the equivalent in ESPY.

but Best Non-Korean of the Year definitely refers to a player in terms of skill and thus it is stupid to exclude IdrA.

:S We're basically saying the same thing but coming to different conclusions.
I'm saying Jinro's Results for his 2 month period has sent him into the top player of the year. Let's also remember he was on oGs' A-team. IdrA curb stomping some noobies from NA and EU server doesn't quite stand up to oGs' A-team winning the biggest MLG team and getting farther in GSL

I still think IdrA is a more skilled individual because FA just doesn't have the experience on that level BUTTTTTTT Jinro's Acomplishments this year were more important in my eyes.

Guys IdrA signed up for the Holiday special, qualified for final 8 but then in pure calculated spite against GG.net, he showed up to let us know he was not going to play.

We´re not saying he´s not a good player, or maybe even the greatest, but if you´re here to spoil the hard work that we´re putting in for free for you guys (in fact spending €500 on in addition to hard work) then you do not deserve to be on the list.

It´s that simple.

He´s banned from GG.net, both as a user and as a player. He was not before he pulled that stunt.

So he´s disqualified from all considerations and its just as simple as that, please accept it and either vote on the other guys and write it off as the non-idra awards or dont, its your free choice as human beings

Barry Bonds got 3 ESPYs, along with his 6 MVPs.

It's also pretty ridiculous that SEn, Loner and Brat_OK aren't on that list.

No doubt imo that Idra was the best player of the last year and because of this he is a prime example for a lot of people, not only with the way he plays, but with the way he acts too. Its not fun for me that in the half of the games I play on b.net2 I`m told to "fuck off", "die" or "my family to get aids".
A little bit of well thought and smart BM is always good for the game, but cursing the people you play leads to nowhere, thats why I think that Gosugamers descision is not made without any reason.
