Just saw this thread. Absolutely hilarious. Idra's quote from the first page is perfect.

God choya. is this why you're so iffy T_T.

I think people like him shouldn't fuck around at all. Eventhough it doesn't matter it is still abuse and cheating basically. I say punish him to show anyone whom would like to pull similar bs. Probably first time i agree with IdrA.
Brood War is the best RTS that has ever been created.

On what grounds (reference to GSL ruleset) was he punished exactly? (skimming the thread for basis, base, require, rule, ground didn't yield an answer)

It's pretty hard to respect such a move by the GSL unless they announced beforehand that such behaviour is unacceptable. In fact I'd even be forced to hold them in contempt for it if it has no substantive grounds whatsoever.

more like getting disciplined in the world poker tour for cheating on a poker website like fulltiltpoker.com

Why do his action on Bnet affect his GSL status? Do people actually care about ladder that much?

Not to mention the rock/paper/scissors thing was only done mutually..

So he's banned for a year? OUCH.

Also guys, this is a great move by the GSL because it sets an obvious precedent to discourage ALL ladder abuse in the future by any player interested in participating in the GSL.

His little scheme wasn't very well thought out... As if no one will notice dozens of games <1 minute :\

Banned for a year? I thought he was only banned from the February GSL. Who's going to take his spot in code S?

And lol @ everyone saying he is trash. You don't get to round 8 in Code S by being trash. Sure, he did some dumb RPS shit on ladder, but his accomplishments clearly illustrate that he is a competent player. He's rather cheesy, but he's extremely proficient in his execution and he's able to do macro games if he's pulled into one.

The fact that they punished him at all is stupid. His performance contradicts their reasoning, which is, if I recall correctly, that it would allow players to wrongfully compete on levels beyond them. Code S is obviously not above Choya, seeing that he's made Ro8 last season and this season. Furthermore, even if someone DID do some dumb RPS BS to get into Code B, isn't code B also a tournament of sorts? They're obviously not going to be good enough to actually win it if someone does that.

This decision is pretty stupid imo. If Choya didn't gain money from this (and how could he?) I don't see why he should be penalized an opportunity to play in a league that doesn't use ladder rankings to determine placements. It would be different if this actually had an effect on anything in GSL, but it doesn't. GOM once again is proving to me it still has a long ways to go before I consider it a mature organization to lead e-sports.

But ladder is important for blizzard and even for Gom for their foreigner invitations.....
Even if choya doesnt get an advantage from it.... Gom works together with blizzard and after all the ladder is the official way to rank players in this game. Of course he should be punished. Everyone who disagrees doesnt have any sense for rights
