And yes, 'one of the only' is bad grammar.
Are you suggesting that it should say something like "one of the few" or "one of a limited number?"
Saying the grammar is bad without proposing a change doesn't really demonstrate that you understand the correct grammar usage.
For what it's worth, I don't see a problem with "one of the only." I don't see how it's any different from saying "one of the best" or "one of the most talented." "Only," "best," and "most" are all words that imply there is only one, but in this context they all seem fine.

Anyone want to summarize the proof? The reddit responses seemed to make it sound like Specialists didn't have any real proof other than hunches.
That said, the only time I've seen Magicamy was in the ESL weekly she won and the webcam wasn't just on her face. I recall you could see her arms moving around to play. Of course if you could and would hoax that too if you were covering all your bases.
But it just seems so elaborate (especially to beat a teammate for a spot in a tourney you can't actually attend, except unless she's absolutely terrible at the game she could still go and have an 'off' day and no one would accuse her of being two people).
Chakki posted some skype and IRC IDs of Amy's that matched with some canadian guy, JAB has said Amy conned him into playing for her and giving her money. A facebook and twitter account of said canadian guy also used the ID magicamy and now various other people are saying she conned them into playing for her.

Whoa. The girl's a hustler, gotta respect that...Gotta do what you gotta do! I first felt bad for all the guys she got money from, but then..nah. Hustle 'til you die

Forsen said on stream that him and several other pros had their suspicions in part because she refused to join their Skype circles, always using a really flimsy excuse, but didn't have enough evidence to come forward.

Why would she dodge their calls when other people claims they spoke to her often and that she had a good knowledge of HS, I mean what would she be afraid of? She just might not wanted to speak to Forsen and them, I wouldn't atleast..You would probably lose more braincells from a skypeconvo with cancer Forsen then smoking crack and getting into a fistfight with the thugs who sold you the rocks..

Also, from the bnet forums:
"MagicAMY is Reynad. It's easy to decipher: "Magic" refers to his past; "AMY" stands for Andrey Mikheyevich Yanyuk." This makes perfect sense. Reynad is a mastermind lol

So like at this point MagicAmy is accused of:
- Being a con-artist trying to milk NA $$$ - Being a pathological liar - Botting - Stealing a miracle rogue deck - Cheating in the ESL using screensharing - Being a scam by the girl in the picture and one or more decent HS players (possibly Canadian) - Having better English than a Korean should have

That last one is the worst. Perma ban please.

she also stands accused of being one of the only female players in hearthstone--a heinous but ultimately grammatically fine statement.

It's always surprising how much bizarre drama a digital card game can produce. At this point I kinda want to know if the puppetmaster is Amy or Blaney.
|
Personally I always thought it was weird she kinda avoiding streaming so much. I understand that some people (mostly girls) are shy, care about privacy etc, but if you're pro gamer in a pro team with a good chances to appear at offline events and some videos anyway, then streaming shouldn't be an issue. Oh well, guess we'll see how it turns out tomorrow.

two of the people scammed (Celerity and Specialist) are TL posters no?
