HEY GAIZ I HEARD IT WAS TOTALBISCUIT ON THAT ACCOUNT. LETS GET THE PITCHFORKS AND TORCHES.

Srsly thought, that is kind of messed that someone with access to your NASL account would do that. Thanks for stomping out the rumor fire though, CatZ. You're a good dude.

Can you really call yourself a "very smart being" if you smoke cigs? Just saying! But, glad to hear it wasn't you, I enjoy your play!

Catz, I want to clarify one thing: are you implying that a member of NASL is trying to sabotage you? That is the only reasonable conclusion to be drawn from your post, considering that only one other ROOTCatZ is registered on NA ( http://sc2ranks.com/search/starts/us/rootcatz ), and it has been claimed to be used by NASL for observation. Also, that whoever impersonated you clearly knew the exact results of the game right after it happened, which obviously means they are working for NASL.

no, we aren't allowed to play games on our accounts... so that 4-0 1v1 account is not the NASL account. I guess they don't show up on the search list if they don't have ladder games played?

Hmm, yeah, probably true. Still, how did the person imitating CatZ know exactly what happened in the games right after they happened? It has to have been someone involved in NASL, unless NASL somehow mistakenly invited a stranger to observe that was using CatZ' name.

Someone may just have started adding
ROOTCatZ.000
ROOTCatZ.001
...
ROOTCatZ.999

to their friends list until they found his NASL account. They could then look up his match history and see the early game build order from stalife.

Some admin of tsl mentioned on a talkshow (probably hotbid or kennigit on sotg or itg) that to avoid this they registered new accounts with completely unrelated names that people wouldn't guess, and then afterwards they modified the replay files to have the correct names.

As Catz said there is no need to accuse anyone in particular. Especially not without conclusive proof.

Also, guys please remember that there is no name dupe protection in battlenet. There are several people with the same name, the only thing that changes is the character code. We've seen someone named ROOTDestiny talk to him on his stream before, so it didn't have to be someone with access to CatZ's account


This is absolutly correct, otherwise i wouldn't have beat tlo once
Still it is disturbing that the Fake-CatZ knew the results of the games so there is at least some leakage somewhere if i understand correctly.

Anyways CatZ, keep on being awesome and we'll bear with you

And please: Sing more, smoke less!

But she caught me on the counter
(It wasn't me)
Saw me banging on the sofa
(It wasn't me)
I even had her in the shower
(It wasn't me)
She even caught me on camera
(It wasn't me)
She saw the marks on my shoulder
(It wasn't me)
Heard the words that I told her
(It wasn't me)
Heard the screams getting louder
(It wasn't me)
She stayed until it was over
This is not Warcraft in space! It's much more sophisticated!

Catz has made it very clear that's NOT what he's saying. He's not accusing anyone involved with the NASL, and the word sabotage is a little over-dramatic.

At this point, my best guess is someone with an attenuated relationship to the NASL doesn't like Catz wanted to fuck with him.

Thanks a ton for clearing everything up CatZ. I thought you were one of the best role models in Esports, but was starting to think otherwise. Hopefully everyone can see your post. ♥

Can't it be someone with ROOTCatZ name that talked shit and just happened to guess the NASL results correctly?

I can easily name a Guest account ROOTCatZ and go pretending to be him. All I would need is to guess the scores.

2-0 2-1 1-2 0-2... 25% chance of getting it right.

Apparently there's drama afloat. But I don't care.

I just want to hear you sing Catz.

Technically, based on CatZ's performance in NASL so far, from a statistical standpoint if you use past performance as an indicator of future performance, you'd have a higher then 25% but less than 50% chance of getting the score right if you simply choose one of the losing scores for CatZ, such as 1-2 or 0-2.

When I first saw the screenshot I was already sure it wasn't the real CatZ. Still happy to see it confirmed and explained.

If I were in CatZ shoes I would probably be raging and kind of humiliated if someone pretended to be me that way. Hope you recover and don't let this knock you down in any way, CatZ.

Thanks for telling us the whole story, makes us feel appreciated as fans

BTW, CatZ, you wrote in your post you are currently living with 2 other pros, did one of them move out? Hope it wasn't drewbie!

I wrote an application for cracking character codes back when athene started playing SC2, easy stuff, so someone could have used something like that to add CatZs nasl account to friends and seen match history.

If they hadn't blocked j.tv at work, I'd watch your stream all day.

Keep it up, man...you're an inspiration.

Fenix is in Peru atm, just Drewbie, TT1, and CatZ at the house.

(I think Fenix is coming back eventually, I was under the impression he hadn't completely moved out).
