So there we have it.

He just pretended to watch your stream to make you mad. And looks like he succeeded. I guess that wraps up the whole deal, he wasn't ghosting you but just making a joke. It would be time for martenJ to apologize now, but somehow I think that won't happen.

No he should apologize for public name calling and suggesting that diamondprox would "cheat". That is really bad sportsmanship by martenJ, and now that his opponent revealed the truth about the incident (he was not actually watching the stream, just had it open and pretended to do it to make a joke) it would be the right time to show some humility.

Still no one addressed the fact that streaming without delay "for chat interaction" is a freakin form of cheating if viewers are telling you plays you missed in the chat and ure making their plays instead

We dont know one way or the other. But with how he OP describes it with the obvious super long turns and loading up this super obvious screen shot after he had already been accused of watching the stream makes doing it on purpose the much more likely explanation.

yes,

I understand what he's trying to say. Obv there's a non-zero chance that that is what happened, but I'm quite sure he was just cheating:

- I'm just a random dude he doesn't know. Why would you do that to a person you don't know? If I wanna make fun of a guy I'd chose a celebrity or a friend.
- Before the match started I mentioned multiple times that I feel honored playing him, I gave him no reason at all to troll me.
- He played really, really slowly literally from turn one game one onwards. Afterwards I said on stream that he might be watching my stream. Not the other way around.
- I gave him the chance to explain himself when I asked him if hes watching my stream after game two
- He changed his name on ESL after I officially protested.
- We played in the QF, but he uploaded the screenshot vs me in for the SF match. Chances are pretty high that I would not see it, in fact I wouldn't have looked at it if no one had sent me the link.
- Seems really risky to do that in an official tournament. He has a lot to lose (his e-sports career) and nothing to gain.
- He has a pretty poor reputation in the LoL community.
- If someone on skype was translating what I am saying why would he open my stream? The chat was in German as well FWIW. He wasn't just taking a quick screenshot to troll me, he had my stream open for quite some time.


Better be lucky than good!

For some this might be a pretty good reason to troll you.

new twist in the story:

"Quarterfinals? please.)

We were sitting in skype with friends and one of us knew german, so he was translating all the shit he was talking about me and the things that were in his chat. And we were trolling and laughing so fucking loud that i dont really know, how our media director Michael was sleeping near to me xD"

http://www.reddit.com/r/leagueoflegends/comments/1sh3r0/gg_benq_diamond_ama/cdxig68

LOL.

not sure what to say about that. He uploaded the screenshot himself, and now hes like "we were trolling" seriously, that's your excuse?

Your interpretation is a leap at best. Nowhere in those lines or in between them is there an implication that he was ghosting on purpose, let alone not actually doing it. If he was watching the stream together with people translating, he was getting an advantage from it. Something that he should not have done, as gaining an advantage through stream-cheating is, tadaa, cheating. Equally despicable.

Are you guys fucking high? I read the thread twice, trying to find anything that martenJ could vaguely apologize for, but I am still at lost. There are two possible scenarios, but if either of them is valid, there is only one possible - and very simple - conclusion: Diamondprox is a massive asshole. Noone should ever apologize to a person behaving like him and he should be kicked off by the community. He either cheated or bullied an oponent in a tournament. Neither of these actions has any place in a competitive enviroment. If he wants to act like that, he should just screw around with friends in public games.

kind of reminds me of the south park episode where scott tennerman sells eric his pubes and keeps screwing him

i'd just let it go, in the end hes just "some random guy" on the internet (famous in lol,-lol) theres jerks everywhere and you are just wasting your time. even if you mysteriously managed to get him to eat his own parents in a chili con carneval αs revenge, another 5 eighteen year oldjerks are there to take his place and wathc your stream

Wait people actually believe he didn't really stream cheat and he was just pretending to cheat to troll someone?
If so there's this Nigerian prince I'd like to introduce you to, he has a lucrative business opportunity you might be interested in.

^ After reading everything up to this point seriously this. He either got trolled or DP cheated and that's it. Don't see how it's MJ's fault that his opponent was a douche.

I don't believe even the fan boys he has posting here truly believe he didn't cheat. And to the fanbois saying the op is cheating because he can read other plays from his own stream chat; while I do agree that can be a form of cheating on a live stream, was the op waiting to play 90s ANY turn? much less every turn.

Saying it was "just a troll" is an idiot's defense, seriously that is the first, dumbest thing a person could think of; myself and I'm sure many others predicted he would come to this thread and say it was "just a troll."

Agreed.

Whilst I'm inclined (based on all of the above) to believe that Diamondprox is, in fact, a stream cheater the alternative is that he decided to bully someone who was both slightly awed at his reputation as a player and a worthy opponent in the quarterfinals of a tournament. I don't see how either of those paints Diamond in a good light. He's either a cheater or an immature arse, neither of which is a good thing.

Sigh why can't you just let it go? You can't prove whether he did ghost or not. Just turn your stream off next time if you seriously can't accept a loss due to ghosting. It's the risk you take for streaming in a tournament. We can argue whether he is guilty or not all day long, in the end it can't be proven. It's your statement against his

Either way, that guy is a dick and MartinJ has absolutely nothing to apologize for.

It's not really that complicated, is it? Diamonprox cheated by ghosting and makes up a funny story how he was not cheating afterwards. You risk ghosting if you stream with no/too low delay, so don't do it. Still the cheater is to blame, not the victim. What is there to discuss?
