USA has had Paul Brewer do a considerable amount of rule bending (to let deserving players participate, such as in IdrA's case)... I'm sure Canada has someone at the top like him that may be able to pull some strings. Worth checking into. The companies WCG hires to run this shit seems to be different every year too, so things may be possible now. | ||

As a Canadian, I actually really don't mind cheering for Foreigners in general vs Koreans. With the Foreigners vs Korean competition we have going on, It doesn't feel wrong for me to root for an American or a Russian. It sucks that Canada won't be represented, and that Canadian players won't get the opportunity, but It's not a terribly deep wound. Ah fuck it, I'll take TSL over WCG any day. Indeed. If this was before TSL days, I would have freaked out about this news.. Now it's just Meh. | ||

Hell, even for other things. He doesn't own you anything and he isn't some god either. Again, I don't see why the SC community has to pay WCG money because WCG drops SC. We can pay all we want this year. But next year it will be off again. Same for the year beyond that. And who knows if they will ever learn. Just let WCG die so real esports can take it's place. As long as there is WCG we won't have a true olympics of esports. | ||

WCG has been decaying for the past 2-3 years. They never get their shit together on time, and the people running it are not motivated to do the best job they can. It is not the responsibility of the gamers to prop up this BUSINESS to make it look good. Remember, this IS a business. $5,000 is a crazy amount of money, and this is for one person from one country. Many people on this site do not have a WCG spot either. I don't think it is fair to get people to donate to just one cause. If you have ties with a corporate sponsorship, by all means help out. Don't donate out of pocket though. You are throwing your money away. | ||

We're sending a total of 8 gamers. 5 CS spots, a C&C3 spot, a WC3 spot and the most important of all, Guitar Hero 3. You guys should sponsor me instead. I guarantee a group elimination exit.  | ||
