...your statement is ridiculous ~_~ I think his banning of this event was to show the world that they mean serious business and keeps people in check. Even though you guys think its a minor offense "rock paper scissoring" to win or lose games. its still something that doesnt display a competitive spirit and not a legitimate way to gain a spot in the tourney. Even though you guys say it doesnt give him an advantage and all that bullshit what if it does? then what..should he now be penalized for when it works? =p


Unless he's hacking, for which dq from just one event would be way to mild, there's no way he can gain an advantage over good players actually playing the games, and advancing in rank until evening out at the expected 50%.

The one thing he does gain is a lot of saved time for using up his bonus pool - but gee, how does he even have a bonus pool if he has been playing a lot.

looks like the sc2 council (made up of the korean teams) has made a new policy to deal with events such as this if they happen in the future, hopefully somebody can translate this article:

More importantly, how do you play a game of rock paper scissors online? Example:

Player 1: Rock
Player 2: [looks at rock, and decides to go paper..]


You play three games at once. If player one types [Paper Rock Paper] and player two types [Rock Paper Scissor], then player two wins


Still confused.
Could wait till Paper rock paper then type scissors paper blank
if happy ever afters did exist <3 @watamizu_

The GSL neither controls nor understands the ladder system - who are they to define what people are allowed to do on it? Using it as qualifier is even more stupid - how would they know for sure that it is completely fair if it's not their own system?
This is ten percent luck, twenty percent skill - Fifteen percent concentrated power of will - Five percent pleasure, fifty percent pain ..

What????

This is really upsetting, he has done nothing wrong!!

This is just terrible. There is nothing to stop the other player from staying if he loses the game.

What is this? They didn't bend any rules. They played a game of starcraft. What units they made what they type to each other, it's their own choice. This is exactly NOT abuse. Grr.... Gsl won wome points with fixing Lost temple and bringing in new maps, but then today the stream went offline, players got disconnected, and now this they punish a guy for playing the game...

back in the days everybody was crying about KeSPA, and how they dealt with things when the broadcasters fuck things up.
now the regulation is done by the broadcaster himself. there is no differentation between the law enforcing authority and the money-grabbng company.

wanna know what i think about it? GOM knows the old rule of "every publicity is good publicity" and they thought that SC2 could need a "scandal" to raise the viewing rates. for the sake of the players, lets hope this wont work, because otherwise we will soon have the next scandal.
All what KT currently needs is a Zerg and a second Terran

I'm sorry, but I don't know how he could win 20 points for winnig but only lose 3 by losing. How does this work? Do his opponents get the same deal?

It's the problem of the ladder mechanism, not the players. Ridiculous to punish choya...

What Blizzard should do is taking play time/stats into account to calculate win/lose points. You can't earn your points within 10 seconds/mining nothing.

And I guess most progamers don't, or won't play ladders very often. What they need for a tournament is specific training with dedicated partners, not hanging around playing with random opponents. It won't shock me if the juniors in a team will have to play ladder games for the seniors...Overall, ladder system should be just for fun, not for competitive e-sports.

However, maybe the achievements in GSL could be converted into BN points...

I don't know how to play rock-paper-scissors in a sc2 game...But you could do this: pick out two healthy workers, let your opponents see and choose left/right, then make them attack each other...should be fair?

Read up on how the ladder system works.

I gave up on understanding that months ago. I know you're kind of the expert, but for me, I just take the points it gives me.
