keep in mind that our goal is to maintain the fairest environment in the name of competition that we can for all players.

I also want to encourage everyone to not hold it against Slush - He felt as if had a legitimate chance, and left it in our hands. This was an Admin decision, not his.

Left the important parts. If it was for "fairness, you'd see that Artosis had his hydras chilling in Slush's last mining base, so we go to resources and see that while Slush has been saving up resources, he only has around 700 gas (he's still mining gas, though) and 3k mins. He has all tech options available, and has +3/+3 for hydras and roaches, while it's only +1/0 for his mutas. He has a few options, he can:

A) Expand again, 400 mins each and he really only has the option to expand back to his gold, where a crap ton of hydras are chillin w/ reinforcements on the way. Game goes to artosis.

B) Use the last of his resources to build up his very own hydra/roach army... but how much can he really get? With 700 gass that's 14 hydras right away, with 0 roaches. He also has a good number of mutas, but those are going to get dropped by the corrupters almost immediately. Game goes to Artosis.

C) Artosis can a-move all his drones and bring his army back to his main while Slush pushes with all his forces, beats the drones, beats every expo, and THEN Artosis DC's. Game goes to Slush.

Yup, option C is totally viable, good thing you made them re so Slush could cheese his way to the next round!

Win.win

It's also fair to beat your opponent without disconnecting, which is purely objective. Victory is subjective when a disconnect occurs. In this case, Nazgul said it best:

"If you disc and your opponent has as much as a 1% chance it's a regame. It's you who discs and who's at fault plenty of systems give you a loss for that. If the rule would be any different it would allow people to gain advantages and disconnect after with no chance of a comeback for their opponents."

Let's try and not talk about the regame until the event is over okay guys. Let's focus on the games at hand and we can talk about the DC when we've all calmed down.

When Louder killed Slush's first overlord in game 3 i thought it was over, but I think Louder went too far with upgrades and not enough units letting Slush back into the game.
