Then click on Starcraft 2 on the side bar on the left, and then on Game Types. It shows all the correct maps, but don't make the same mistake MLG did - the official brackets are numbered wrong. | ||

This isn't necessarily true of course. Winning the first map is very important in a Bo3, as even if you lose map 2, you get the map choice for round 3. Added to the fact that Tyler was using a fairly uncommon strategy in round 1, which would likely not have worked a 2nd time. | ||

it's easy to say "yes i made a mistake" but it's hard to make that count by not punishing anyone but oneself | ||

Large mistakes obviously happened and there was some hypocrisy in the whole situation as well (enforcing some rules and not enforcing others while claiming ALL rules need to be enforced) but that shouldn't ruin an otherwise really well done and very enjoyable tournament. | ||

He told Tyler after the game he had like 15 scvs. That's as crappy as it gets for Tyler, and probably puts him on tilt more than losing the first game. PainUser was far from out of that game, had he lost his OC he would of been out. Tyler just finished his robo and had nothing but gateway units, Pain had full tech available to him, and close spawns on his side with tanks+siege already on the field. imo the game was about 50/50 | ||

working over 20 hrs is not an excuse, it simply shows that you are a really greedy employer | ||

That said, if an organization as amazing as TL could make a similar mistake (Artosis Slush regame for TSL) then it's unlikely that an event as large as MLG would be able to go off without a hitch. Hopefully MLG makes it up to Tyler somehow (showmatch regame with Painuser for bonus cash!) | ||

Who are you to tell them to hire additional workers ._. You're probably not even paying to watch their games. | ||

They aren't even consistent in making this exact decision as long as it's not on camera, nevermind the chat/color comparison, guess they don't even have credibility according to their own terms as stated in OP, that really sucks that results depended in part on which match got televised -___- | ||

Sure it sucks for the players, but it was the right thing to do. I find it really cool of them that they don't make up lame excuses and immediately say they were at fault. Props to MLG for running this great event! (on a sidenote, I don't feel like painuser stole this series because of this. He played a fantastic game 1 reloaded and game 2.) I agree and could even ignore the other four games, but they NEED to fix the brackets so it doesn't happen again! If you can't change the template to remove the first Round, at least re-number correctly! | ||

For example it says round 8 for Ret Vs Kiwi. Round 8 should be Metalopolis. Or is it a different mapbecause of the gridmistakes? | ||

That's the error. The numbering on the official brackets is wrong because there is a "fake" Round 1, pushing all the Rounds off by 1. | ||
