EPTNaNiwa not invited to Code S - Page 133
| Forum Index > Closed |
While I understand that there's a need to discuss this matter, this thread has way too many trash posts in it. Please think carefully about what you want to say. Ad hominem attacks on Swedish people in general, calling you fellow Starcraft fans idiots etc etc will be dealt with with harsher punishment from here on out. Keep it civil people. Page 230: Here's some more stuff that'll get you banned! - Conspiracy theory mongering about MLG and GOM - Comparing people to Hitler - Posting useless one liners of arguments that have already been repeated ad nauseum. | ||

Or, wait, don't tell me, they only award it to people they LIKE (or mr Chae thinks is going to bring in many viewers), again on arbitrary business interest standards. Care to address the other points? Arbitrarily judging athletes who are depending on this stuff for their income is A-OK? Read the other posts, the liquipedia article made a mistake. GSL-MLG doesn't extend into 2012. | ||

It's all too easy to get caught up in drama and make everything into hyperbole. Just because we aren't noisy and outraged, doesn't mean we're not here. srs. it tells me GOM will uphold and provide quality SC2. thats all the more entertainment for me | ||

Maybe he should have tried harder in his game but really, there was according to Mr. Chae, nothing in it for him anyway. If there is nothing to be gained, why try your hardest or even try at all? It is a complete waste of time. Since there was no code S spot being revoked I don't see why they had to say anything other than to be a giant ass and insult someone since it didn't matter anyway. That's like saying well "Well, I was going to give you this cookie if you do such and such but since you didn't you don't get it. Well, actually, I was never going to give you the cookie anyway." WTF. He never said it was revoked, 3rd party sources say so. | ||

I can only think that some pro teams are complaining to GOM and thus they surrender to the pressure from them. Otherwise I don't know what to think. Well I guess I'm going to do what many others will. Skip GSL this season. | ||

You can't have a bad attitude about it like that and keep winning. It just won't work. | ||

Would be nice to have a definite answer to this question but i guess that it can only come from MLG. I mean, if the deal was still running GOM kind of fucked over MLG, too. If not, GOM was absolutely in their rights and discussion could end. | ||

Naniwa was disrespectful. Naniwa was sent to the corner. You shouldn't be sad for Naniwa, you should be sad that it seems that esports has to raise other people's children. You don't get on their stage and then in the middle of it decide not to play by their rules because your feelings are hurt, and then get away with it scot-free (this isn't even that big of a punishment, its only a month, unless I'm mistaken). Gom has to be sure that the decisions that they make for the sake of the fans (format) are adhered to by the players that take their stage, even when you get the shitty end of the stick. We all have to sacrifice sometimes. Such is (adult) life. Naniwa gets a free pass why? Because you like him? | ||

The GSL-MLG exchange program indicates an exchange, Koreans were invited and placed into the championship bracket and foreigners who place high get invited to the GSL. However, the only Koreans who played in Providence were either seeded through MLG points they earned previously or had to go through the open bracket. Not one Korean was seeded into the Championship bracket as part of the program, and somehow we all overlooked this. | ||
