If you don't punish people for missing a game in some way shape or form they will game the system. Now I agree that it is a punishment for MC as he would have probably won, and thus he is 0-0 instead of 1-0, but still, NASL needs to start cracking down. They punish players that just don't show up (Ex. White-ra got 0-2). They just don't punish players that cannot show up for reasons out of their control (Ex. MC's plane is delayed) | ||

NASL _must_ realize that its simply not important enough for players in it to let go off LAN-Tournaments and such. I dont understand why the didnt re-arrange matches like this one...clearly its a situation mc cant influence. They got the luxory of not having to live-cast those games, why not delay it, or let them play it another day? A thing of principle? Well nasl, you have two of the best players in the tournament already getting a walkover against themselves, in Week one... Im really afraid how things look in week 9. tbh im not looking forward to players with a 6-0 not advancing because it simply wasnt possible for them to play those games at the dedicated time. Dunno..maybe they really need to think about the casting format. TSL shows that replay-casting a huge tournament can work without any problem. | ||

Well a plane delay is at least a reason that's not MC's fault, as opposed to White-Ra and Naniwa actually being at fault for not playing their games... | ||

So far, the following huge names haven't been able to play their matches: Naniwa July WhiteRa MC These players in specific were quite the hype-creators. If the NASL doesn't bend its rules to accommodate a player in the event of this happening again, I'll be extremely disappointed. The NASL needs the players just as badly, if not MORE than the players need them. There are a lot of other tournaments going on with big names, so the NASL is really hurting its image compared to these other tournaments by missing out on these big names playing in their league. I know they have a tight schedule and that there are reasons this happened. But the NASL can change that. I bought my NASL ticket, and although Moon vs Grubby alone was able to make it worth it, I sure as hell expected a lot more. | ||

Rules should be enforced, and certainly not bent just because the player is popular. It's not fair to those who actually play by the rules. Did you hear how pissed Strelok was? Perfectly justified. | ||

Not at all this is a new tournament like new players they need to prove themself before they get respect. So atm NASL got 0 respect since its a new tournament only thing they can do to improve is to make sure the best players is able to play.. if stuff like this keep happening the tournament will go down faster then Ricky Hatton. | ||
