This does not make sense, there should be a extended series and THAN a extra bo3 in favor of Jinro, just because he hasn't lost yet.

Even the wording of their poll is wrong. The extended series rule is 100% fair... whether or not they want to use it is a different story. But there's certainly nothing more fair/unfair about it than without the extended series rule.

How is it 100% fair? Please explain your reasoning. As I view it , it is very unfair for any player that does not face the same opponent in LB as in WB. I'm sure everyone would love to have extra chances.

If we ignore all past results then that would mean for the sake of consistency you'd have to remove the winner bracket's champion having an advantage over the loser's bracket, no? If not, why draw the line there and not simply for beating an earlier opponent? Why does that logic apply there but not later?

The difference there is that the player from the WB has never been eliminated from the tournament, whereas the LB has been eliminated once. In order to be taken out of a double elimination tournament, you should be eliminated twice.

Then why play double elimination? Why not make it single elimination to remove all problems that stem from these arguments? Their system punishes losers. Lost to somebody earlier? Punishment, better step your game up. Find yourself in the losers bracket? Punishment, better step your game up. MLG likes to favor winners.

Cause double elimination without extended series in LB makes perfect sense.

PainUser lost 2-1 to Jinro in WB, he "lost" 2-1 in LB to Tyler. He's still in the tournament. This is what you're calling 100% fair.

lol, how is this shit hard to understand? There is no fair answer to this question. It doesn't exist. The only difference is I'm smart enough to look to other problems that come from the alternative method of double elimination. I honestly don't favor one way or the other. They both make sense and they both have strengths/weaknesses.

You are looking for an answer to a question that nobody cares about.

They both had one loss and should be out after the second loss. It is not fair to the other players that painuser is still in the tournament after two eliminations, just because he happened to meet Tyler again. How hard is this concept to grasp?

I understand your complaint. Let's say Tyler had won their second meeting 2-1 and eliminated Painuser. Their final record for the tournament is Painuser beating Tyler 3 games and losing 2. It's fair that with a winning record he is eliminated? Neither is perfect. Deal with it.

I'm done posting on this subject since I've wasted way too many lines of text trying to explain the obvious answer of "you can't please everybody", but apparently people think you can.

ps: Go TT1
