Do they just ignore all posts? The unanimous hate towards this thread/"tournament"/group seems an obvious hint to cease and desist...

I'm not quite sure why they close the last 3 thread, is it because theres to much negative comment?

It's because your tourney isn't a tourney, just and obvious way to gain exposure to yourself. I know its hard to make it big in SC2 when you only get 50 viewers but have some dignity yo.

I played in this tournament. Its fun and a good chance to meet people. you can also obs some great games of GMS. Idk why so many people hate on it, the difficulty of winning the tournament is legit for the ammount of prize money.

give the guys a break, the tournament is legit i was on their stream when they talked abot it, ofc it seems "impossible" but it's free 1000$ for some win and with a little luck and a lot skill anyone can win it, mb it would be better as a bo5(needing 3-0 not 4-0) but imo people like MC, TLO, Select can win it with a high probability since the 4gm they have to beat aren't that strong..

. it's not like people have to 4-0 boxer, kiwikaki or idra or some pros

(not to mention some interesting games can come out since idra alrdy played in the tourney but lost and a raging idra is always a sight)

I think it's because they think it's a publicity stunt not an actual tournament, and if they delete/locked your old threads don't remake new 1's.

Just take the advise that some of the people here on TL have given you and make a real tournament instead of something that's just out here to get attention, you can get just as much attention with a real tournament even if the prize pool is only around $100 instead of "you have to 4-0 all 3 GM players" and any 1 who knows these players know all they specialize in is cheese so it's pretty impossible.

No GM players will join because they know it's impossible or if any do join is because they might really think they can do it.

Just read your own tourney post and tell us what it looks like to you and maybe you'l see why so many people are flaming you as well.

.


why wouldnt anyone join, it's not like it has an entry fee... it's free money for them if they are skilled enough (and has some luck with counters)

and btw idra alrdy participated but got beaten

Was the previous tourney the same as this recent one? And I'm just going to guess you have something to do with the tourney other than just participating as a player because you'r trying to defend it.

I know it's free but how many people have won any of these tourneys that they have made? I'm not sure but I'm going to guess none am I right? Well just be careful about the posting thing every 1 knows how strict TL is about posting something that has been previously locked/banned, if they didn't want i there the first 3x what makes you think posting it a 4th time would make it right.

If they bann your acc that means you'r stream won't be able to be playing anymore, is that a risk you'r willing to take?

I'm sorry but I don't understand how in the world would internet lag have anything to do with posting a thread in the wrong section especially if you've already made 3 of the same threads and they've all been closed for a reason. I'm also very confident that they were closed for a specific reason by the mod/admin that closed the thread.

I also like how the prize pool keeps increasing everytime this thread gets closed. 500$, then bumped up to 750$, then now 1000$ lol.
When I think of something else, something will go here

as i said i was on their stream when they talked about it so i felt like i have to say something for the people who think it's not legit, because it is legit.

none won it yet but only 3tournaments were created. think of it as a fun lottery game in sc2, getting 100$ as winner of a small tourney is boring, but getting 1000$ with harder conditions is more interesting imo, and imo really strong pros from 10 tries(equals 100*10=1000) can easily win the 12consecutive game, they probably won against harder opponents more streaks.

and btw conditions like these are really popular in other games, not yet introduced in sc2 but mb it's time!
(there was a promotion in counter-strike that if u can win 8rounds from 15 against a superpro 1v1 u win 100.000dollars, none won but it was fun)

Ya, there is no way these guys have the money to back this up. It's a joke. They are just starved for attention, it's pathetic

Can you and your buddies stop making TL accounts just to promote this? It's quite pathetic. Just finish high school and save your SC2 reputation before it is completely tarnished.

i love how negative everyone is about this when i repeat: there is nothing to lose for participants, only to win 1000$ and it's legit, they said that they will probably make a screenshot about the paypal account with 1000$ for evidence.

When the only positive remarks in a tourney thread are made by people involved in the organisation on smurf accounts, you just know it's gonna be awesome!

So wait someone has to win 16-0 to take the money? Difficult but I think a korean or top foreigner might be able to do it, and given that these guys keep increasing the money it seems clear they don't think they will have to pay, I'd love to see them lose

Someone with a 90% win rate would only have a 19% chance to go 16-0.

And, they can easily just cheese every game. I don't think anyone has an above 80% win rate against hardcore cheeses. An 80% win rate only has a 3% chance to go 16-0.

making smurfs would be dumb since admins can probably see IPs.
and as i said i only watched their stream, im not even from Korea where they live (im from europe, Hungary)
and only registered to defend them since i heard them FIRST HAND that it's legit, who u want to believe about legitimacy? random people or people who heard them talking? (best answer would be to believe none, but worst is to believe the negative critics which u do....)
