Where did you get this from -.- I thought this controversy was about unsportsmanlike behavior of professional gamers in the tournament. That's just happened that all starcraft progamers are Koreans, but that has nothing to do with this situation. Those who see it as China vs Korea or whatnot are not very smart people in my opinion.

samsammy lives in a magical world where there is no corruption or anything "bad"
Part of the inhumanity of the computer is that, once it is competently programmed and working smoothly, it is completely honest.

SAMSAMMY WE ALL HATE KOREANS

Hence the avid following of the korean professional gaming scene. You realize this website is the top foreigner media for commenting/watching/downloading/discussing korean professionals in bw? If there was ever a place you could never make the assumption that a community collectively hates koreans its the website that does said activity and then suppliments it with continual pictures of featureless korean girls in young clothing and photoshopped eyes/lips displaying the breasts they dont have for thousands of drooling white men.

What I found most interesting is that both articles released by FiFo and Fomos referred to THIS VERY THREAD as the start of the controversy. Fomos actually said "the controversy began when someone posted pictures of the chatting screen on the famous foreign website teamliquid". I was like "THAT'S US BITCHES!"
haha. that's some interesting reporting there.

"The controversy over the terrorist bombings started when someone posted pictures of the affair on the famous foreign website al jazeera." well okkkk, cite your source some other way, maybe?

I've never been more embarrassed to be an Asian at the face of the ridiculous amount of racism spewed in this thread between Chinese and Koreans. I'm angry because as a Hwasin fan I feel betrayed by not only his behavior but more importantly his refusal to fess up and just give a simple apology. Regardless of whether you think his actions were justified or not, the fans expected good games. Not "Here's what I'm going to do so you can prepare the exact counter". It's even MORE ridiculous that now it seems Fomos is trying to blame Teamliquid for it when Tl.net has to be one of the best and openminded sources on Proleague SC the foreign scene has. Also Andy's remark about World Cup was completely uncalled for and I hope it's recognized that that's not the perspective of all Chinese.

I hope a mod can go through this whole thread and delete all the racist shit, from both Koreans and Chinese. Most of it was totally irrelevant and it looks terrible for Tlnet, especially if people from other sites might be coming in to scan through the thread.

Korean people please keep us updated on the Korean community's opinion on this matter - to me it seems blatently obvious that this "mind games" thing is nothing but a weak excuse and surely some Koreans can see that as well?

Well the reason for Hwasin and calm to stage wasn't because hwasin had to fly back to Korea to play his games so i doubt that. Otherwise it would be a quick 3-0 but that would look too wtf? lol well im just keeping a open mind. Even tho its very likely hwasin and calm did this and maybe they don't care but all in all the fans paid money to see IEST. You have to respect that, they wanted to see good matches not rigged ones. I hope SC doesn't die outside of Korea. Iest should only have US and China invited players. They shouldn't invite Korean players anymore and incontrol's comment is just retarded that fatass tard needs to quit sc kid's always negative about something even if its nothing. Fat Fuck lay off em donuts rofl

Okay, no more bullshit. If you want to discuss something new, that's fine, such as implications or how this can be avoided in the future.

If you post the same stuff, you will be banned, such as why you don't believe this happened. This is directed at you, samsammy. I'm not trying to bait you into getting banned, but your arguments and tone in this thread are ridiculous. If you don't believe there was foul play, that's great, but don't post about it here any more.

Conversely, we don't need to hear others' theories about why they think there was foul play. It's been discussed to death in the previous 20 pages.


I think it's better off just locking the thread, rather then banning a bunch of people who just didn't read this far.
