Best thing about Assembly Summer 2011? Getting players to sign my mousepad.

[image loading]

Big thanks to everyone who signed it, especially Sen who was the first to sign it and opened the pen used to sign it. It was stuck very tightly and I tried to get it off in hurry and he just said "Give it to me, I'm strong" and popped the cap off instantly, pro skills.

I would have liked to catch more people to meet and sign it but there is always the next time!

I didn't watch the event, but reading this and finding out about the Stephano vs Brat_OK incident was a lot of fun.
Also, congratz Dima!

Good article and while it may not change the face of esports for my part I will not root for stephano or bratok going forward after that. Will I say they are unethical evil men? No. Will I cheer for someone that isnt known to try and throw matches in a tournie against them? Yes.

More importantly to me though Dimaga GRIN!! I caught the final of this before sleep took me and I stayed up just to watch him grinning all over the stage as he got his cup and check. GG Dimaga XD

I can't blame a player doing everything they can to win the tournament. Even though it's not good sportsmanship. I would place all of the blame for that entire situation on the organizers tbh, designing a tournament system where this could happen is just silly.

you would be suprised how well known and situated players did the same thing (top Koreans).

Now, let say Bratok didnt openly show he wanted to lose the series instead he would secretly mismicroe few units etc. We wouldnt know that it happened. Would it be better?

At least they had balls to show it to everyone, and by that they kinda cleared themselves. Why? do you ask, they fucking enabled themselfs to be judged! Its like thief knowing that hes doing bad so he steals while being watched by police.

Organizers knew that they made a terrible mistake so they didnt punish them. It is unthinkable that in competetive environment someone would encourage players to throw away games.

Im just saying that we cannot be sure whats been in their head, the situation was unusual, and after subconscious desire not to win Because you already know that losing is optional even if you force yourself to win the game to play "properly" you start to be a fake, because you really want to lose if u care about tournament. At least they werent faking it and showed us openly. Its deeper than simple morality.
