It's not about poor word choice, at least among the people who aren't stupid.
This is a private matter between Tyler and his manager (who didn't give him the information in a timely manner). A week to play a game is standard, and I'm sure Tyler agreed to that when he agreed to play in the tournament.

Not very often but I catch it when I can. I still don't see why that's a big deal and why that has any bearing on what he's saying to NonY in this thread.

It doesn't, really. Read my posts, I mostly agree with orb (except that he's obviously sucking up to Diamond, but that's excusable because that's how you get jobs in esports)

A. The way you handle yourself in such situations portrays the type of individual you are. B. His message is contradictory when his own testimony does not make it clear whether his manager received incomplete information or whether his manager failed to tell him all the necessary information. What specific information was sent to the manager? And what about any attempts to get the information by contacting IPL staff? GSL staff? Were all avenues exhausted without success? C. He is embarrassing his damn team by pouting and pointing fingers at everyone instead of stating the specific reasons why he is so pissed off and trying to resolve the issue.

Agreed. Orb's manner on stream really has nothing to do with NoNy's tournament issues or NoNy's fanclub. People only seem to be bringing it up because Orb was in here trying to defend Diamond and try to calm NoNy down. Regardless of Orb's own manner I felt his posts in here were productive and useful. Maybe it was the pot calling the kettle black, but hey, the pot is correct about that.

Instead of Bic making gamers look to be hairy nerds. I think they should use Tyler for advertising. Get real!

The fact of the matter is that whether you support diamond, orb, or Tyler, this is a private matter that realistically has nothing to do with GSL and Tyler is pissed off (and possibly drunk, if I had to guess)- everyone chill and wait for an official comment.

Maybe writing "word choice" wasn't the best way to say what I was trying to say. It feels like everyone is just avoiding the possibility that the GSL is at fault for creating such a tense situation in the first place. People are very willing to discuss/criticize Tyler's behavior, but are not discussing how tournament managers can prevent issues like these in the future. Especially since this is the Nony Fanclub, and as a fan, I am upset that I don't get to follow Nony in this tournament. The main concerns that came to me after seeing the situation were:
Can Nony be placed back into the tournament? Is there even a chance of that? And if not how can this situation be avoided in the future? Will Nony be compensated?
I'm not trying to tell people they are being ridiculous for wanting to talk drama. We all know TL.net loves drama. I just can't believe other fans aren't sharing/voicing the same concerns I immediately felt.

Shitty deal Nony, I can only hope this doesn't happen to you again. You were streaming a bunch then stopped specifically to practice for this GSL event.
I only wish you didn't have to react so publicly mad. I can understand being mad about GSL but bringing other people into it is starting to detract from the original message.
I'll still watch, I'm still a fan, and I hope this works out for you in some way somewhere down the line.
