We will be moderating harshly in this thread. Think twice before you post. Things we are watching for: image macros, balance whining, "eagles", player bashing etc. We encourage civil and reasoned critique of our moderation - please post it in the website feedback forum. Please don't complain about MLG stream quality or MLG itself. They work very hard to provide you with an enjoyable service. Enough with the racism discussions, this is a LR Thread. Cut it out. -- updated 7:55 KST | ||

Extended series is basically use to make the double elimination fairer. Think about this, if there is a player who never lose a series until the finals. Then he loses to someone who he have beaten before ans loses the title. That player would be playing in a single elimination (since he can lose only once) while his opponent(s) play in a double elimination system (have to chance for the title). The main aim of the extended series should be to prevent this scenario. The championship is a different thing entirely, because someone coming up from the loser's bracket should be at a disadvantage against someone who got through the winner's bracket. I (and others) am arguing against having a player start from an advantage when they're both already in the loser's bracket. | ||

And MLG used extended series even before there was any pool play and there was a slim chance that there could be a meaningless game for a player. So its quite evident that this is not the reason. Making every game count actually is the reason they use it. Most of there other tournaments are Bo5 and double elimination so they instituted the extended series rule to make sure all 5 games mattered. | ||
