As his teammate I just posted a neutral opinion, because anyone will say I am biased!

It's easy to blame BNet for this, but let's not forget that ESL has quite the track record of royally screwing up live events. Basically every ESL event I can recall had one major technical issue at least

yup, definitely the right decision made by the admins. Glad there is still a reasonable justice system in the ESL league.

The ESL fails to provide smoothly running PCs to the competitors, so Goody's chance to win the game has been taken away by the ESL.
Was Demu ahead at this point? Hell, yes. Would he have won the game? Most likely. Definifively? No.
Would they have also given Goody the default win if the game would have crashed 10 minutes earlier? Because, at that point, it was the other way around: Goody was way ahead.
Remember Dreamhack's Morrow vs. Mana, when Day9 kicked his PC? People were screaming "zomfg Morrow way ahead, need defwin", and in the end Mana won the game.
The screaming for defaultwins is pathetic and pitiful, even in online tournaments. And when it comes to professional gaming, with thousands of Euros or Dollars on the line, there is no way eSports can be taken seriously when a game is being decided because the frikking event host, a multimillion Euro company, fails to provide a stable running PC for a player.
This is ridiculous, this is unspeakably outraging.

Yes but the point is in contrast to you, the admins have to come up with a decission whereas you can fall back on complaining and not offering a solution.

There is no solution to be offered. Unless a player gives up the game, a disconnect has to lead to a regame. Otherwise, whenever a player feels ahead, he will simply hit the Windows-button on his keyboard and cancel the LAN connection in the task bar.

The problem with these things are, that in such situations there is no good decision. The only thing what can be done is to make the least horrible decision. Def win demu? that would sux foor goody cause he thought he still had a chance. Rematch? that would sux for demu because he had a clear lead (eg massive advantage) but bigger comebacks have been done in the history so its kinda fishy.

The combination of a kinda buggy game and battlenet 0.2 makes that SC2 isnt the proper platform yet for a good esport game. There are just way to many disc's, crashes in all sort of tournaments with alot of money on the line. ESL cant do alot in this situation tbh, its just blizzard who made a unstable game with a shity online service, and are unwilling to change anything.

LAN support and a big big big big crash hunting action by blizzard would be the the best solution to all this bullshit because then when something goes wrong it will be most likely the fault of the organiser if the game itself is rocksolid (Brood war).

I don't like your solution because it feels unfair when a player with a huge lead disconnects. You are just describing how a loosing player could abuse a yet to formulate rule.

I love TvT. I love this positional play, love when a Thor tanks millions of damage. Don't understand at all how some people find this boring
