we got robbed tonight, gg's Root ... not really any fault of theirs, really poor administrating . in ANY league in existence, disc rules are that a significant advantage == win. gretorp won that game.

you couldn't call that game 100% over and drewbie didn't disc duran, andre did, does suck for you, drewbie was also ahead 2nd game, not quite as much as gretorp was but we replayed that as well.

if sen had dropped the game where he lost to not sieging his tank, it would've been a regame and i could say qxc had a huge clear advantage, as a matter of fact, if he sieged his tank or left his other tank and 4 marines at the base it was essentially 100% over. But qxc had a big mistake not to siege his tank and sen ended up winning, that's the reason you can't count someone out just because, players make mistakes. Same thing happened to payam at MLG, even TL admited he was ahead, we all thought payam had that game, but u can't just assume that an 80 or even 90 or 95% chances to win a game is gonna translate into a win.

edit: Gg's btw, im looking forward to many more rematches and finals against you guys, our love will never die anyways, nomsayin?

It would have been poor administrating from them if they had told Drewbie he had lost because Gretorp disconnect as well. If league admins start giving default win to everyone who's at an advantage when they disc then anyone can pull the plug when they are ahead and demand a default win.

Yup I agree. Its a lose/lose as one side will be happy while the other is not. Blame Gretorps connection or battle.net but the admins imo made the correct decision just hope it doesn't happen again but curse almost whenever there's a big final there has to be problems T_T

For the first game, according to what I read Gretorp type on the stream, it wasn't his fault that he disconnected. B.net dropped him, for whatever reason we don't know. But he did say he was still on skype after he dropped from b.net, which should mean that his internet didn't drop.

It sucks because he had quite a lead with hellions in Drewbie's base and an expansion finished.

It's just one of the downsides to not having LAN [along with many other things]. But hey, it happens, if you DC you should get a loss. It happens, we all mvoe on.

Xeris can I get some of what you're smoking please? I don't know any league where when players have the same number of workers, 1 player ( me ) has a big tech advantage ( i was making a tank and a banshee, and gretorp had nothing to deal with cloak ) and the other player has a faster expansion. Are you saying that because gretorp had 2 hellions (50 and 24 hp) in my base, and i had units still........ hellion and a marine and i was repairing the hellion, I also had a medvac. You are delusional if you really think that gretorp had that game 100% won.

Which leagues exactly has the disconnecting player ever been awarded a win like this? LOL
Even if I disconnected, it would have been a re-game, there was no significant advantage, there was a potential for gretorp to kill a few workers if I totally didnt micro, but saying that the game was won already is pretty freaking BM. You do know that the rules clearly state I could have taken a freewin because of the disconnect, and then Gretorp disconnected AGAIN in the 2nd game when I had as much as an advantage that he had over me in the first game, and again we replay the match.

Really not impressed with your crying about this, also Kawaiirice flaming ROOT and SGL on his stream ATM, really nice.

In what fantasy land does LAN mode have anything to do with an online competition?

Shitty situation however, B.net 2.0 wins another tournament.
