Not very professional, not very professional... In this instance, that's pretty unfair. The manager of Dignitas really had the responsibility for being aware of the DST situation. He clearly dropped the ball, and everyone was gracious enough not to make the situation a pain in the ass for the Dignitas team members. Nobody died, no big deal. | ||

Wondering how a European should know the U.S. has different dates of going into summertime :| ... | ||

If he's European you're being unreasonable. | ||

Being from NA has nothing to do with it. it's simply the managers responsibility to get players in place on time. That includes being on top of time zone changes, DST, and other issues like that. I don't expect the general European to be on top of USA time zones and DST, but I expect someone who is responsible for players who are competing in NA, or anywhere else for that matter, to be aware of those issues. It's just part of the job. | ||

It's just part of the job. The blade cuts at 2 sides, the competition organizers should be aware that not everyone is on top of time zone changes and should warn participating clans. | ||

It's just part of the job. it's a simple mix-up. I'm not saying the dignitas manager would have gotten it correct if the GCPL people had used the correct terminology (although that is possible), but the fact is that the official gosucoaching time stated was 11am PST. to clarify once and for all, 11am PST today is 24 hours from 11am PST yesterday, and is 10 minutes from now. PST does not change overnight, rather, most of the US (excepting arizona and maybe a few other places) goes from EST/CST/MST/PST to EDT/CDT/MDT/PDT. let's now move on from the time issue and look forward to great games! I'm predicting idra vs nani, idra 2-0 win, but we'll see what happens =D | ||
