I understand they have scheduling problems with the unpredictable game lengths, but they need to schedule universal breaks so you can leave the area from time to time  ..And not providing chairs and food & beverage diversity? lol Yeah, don't attend unless you get seeded or a written promise that things will be better catered. Well Dr. Pepper sponsors MLG so it's kind of understandable that they only have that there. Although there's not really much excuse for not having any simple water. | ||

If it really is that bad I feel sorry for the open bracket players, as if the disadvantage of playing tons of bo3's and with a low chance of actually getting seeded in any MLG this year isn't enough. | ||

Also send an Email to Sundance, he relishs in making things go smooth and happy, so I can imagine he would make some changes if you were to complain or something. | ||

EU send some of there top players and has to go true something that seems like torture how in gods name you actually won a match in that state is amasing. Is it a suprice that the koreans actually won mlg in these conditions? Wait why are you complaining. You do under stand that the korean trade benefits both mlg and korea. Is there one for ESL and MLG? no, so why do you think they are treated better. Seriously not everything is going to be fair especially if they are business partners. Also these conditions aren't that bad..... | ||

I find it funny how he only mentions the EU guys. Btw, at least the EU guys,especially the Western Euros like the Swedish, get to play in time conditions that are equivalent to their evenings/midnights, while the Koreans are essentially pulling all-nighters in order to play at MLG. That's called REAL jetlag. | ||

That's called REAL jetlag. Well I just Mention the EU guys becuase they have to travel just as fare as the koreans and its abit discusting seeing how they got treated compared to the koreans. Partnership or not. But you right its toally unfair to all the open bracket players and combine that with the extended rule I got no idea why some1 would actually enter the open bracket. I also read about Rootcats gettting DQ for being late and I hard several of the korean players was like 30min l8t to some of there matches. Yea MLG have to treat the korean players well but this just stinks. And the problem is why would the EU top players go to another MLG in the open bracket? unless ofc MLG gives 4 free spots to the pool play. And thats my huge concern becuase I would love to see Morrow, Thorzain, Kas, Happy, strelok, White-ra goto the next MLG however in this state and the low price money i dont think they will.. | ||

Their schedule wasn't followed at all. It could say that you would play in 5 minutes when you in fact would play in 55 minutes. It could also say that you had to play in 1 hour but you could have to play in 5 minutes. That lead to the constant fear of leaving the venue because even if it said that it was an hour until the next match i risked being DQd every time i left. Also we werent very well respected by the admins. For example when i was gonna play vs qxc in the open bracket I had just finished another bo3 and was called to go play vs him. I went to the station and just said that I had to go to the bathroom and get something to drink because I was dehydrated (There was only dr.pepper in the venue and since it was unsafe to leave that's all i drank that day), but they told me I wasn't allowed to and had to play immediately, even though the game wasn't showed anywhere. There were no time to warm up before any of the games, we only had time to do our settings and then jump right in the game, even at those times we were ahead of schedule. The only break we had was on the first day, friday, for around 1 hour. There were no breaks on Saturday or Sunday so I couldn't even eat. All i had on Sunday was french fries which i bought right after one of my games at the food court just outside the hall, and even then I was told that I was late when i returned. At the last day, Sunday, i bought a lot of water and had in my backpack so that made it a lot easier, and made me actually able to play good on that day. Some guys that have been at other MLGs told me that it was the worst MLG so far, organization-wise. The seeded players had it better, they had computers to play on, places to sit and water and food inside the venue. Of course it's understandable that they can't do that for everyone in the open bracket, so I'm not complaining about that. That's why I probably won't go to MLG Anaheim unless I'm seeded. Well Raleigh was very similar, but obviously there was no "open" bracket, the whole thing was open. It was an organizational nightmare, it felt like they were running the tournament for the very first time (oh wait...) But yeah, I would have just gotten a fangirl to grab you some water and food. You seem like way to nice a guy to ask someone for that, but I know there were a lot of people at the venue who would have been more than happy to get you some food. | ||

Hope you go to the next event, but I totally understand if you don't. MLG's have always been disappointing with their organization. | ||

 I'm sure some other fanboy would do the same!Although I do think you should contact the MLG people (sundance or whoever), not being allowed to go to the toilet in between series is pretty stupid. | ||
