I think what Incontrol said was fine - I don't believe it was too harsh. If you sign up for something like the NASL, you should finish it, regardless of how well you do.
Besides that, good job and thank you NASL for continuing to put on a good show

Zenio will take the walk-over vs Painuser and have 10 Sen at the worst will have 9 with idra, but win because of head to head idra is rank 3 at best Sen at the worst will have 7, if he loses 0-2 to Socke. He got -1 pt today, bringing him down to 9. Boxer can get 11 at most, 7 at worst. If he gets 7 and Sen gets 7 he will advance because of HtH. Zenio will get 10. IdrA can get 9 at most, 5 at worst. IdrA advancing will require Sen to lose to Socke 0-2 and him to win vs. Boxer 2-0. | ||

Boxer has to get up super early in the mornings and waited hours apparently. | ||

Painuser disappears and doesn't tell anyone. He's lucky to have his 9-5 job because he's never going to be sponsored by a legitimate team ever again. I would never hire anyone that behaved in such a way, particularly in such a small scene where everyone knows everyone. | ||

That's a big deal. I believe in Saudi Arabia they still stone people to death for that crime. | ||

Sure this was not the best way to deal with NASL, but plenty of players have made mistakes like this in the past. Shit happens. Not the best way? lol make mistakes? he ignored them for 3 god damn weeks? and it does affect his casting career, who wants to hire a disrespectful unprofessional no show to cast for them? | ||

InC basically said, Painuser hasn't shown up again, this is the 3rd week in a row, we're extremely disappointed we haven't been able to get in contact with him. When we try to get in touch with people, we email them, as their time comes up, we call, call their friends, call anyone who might be able to get in touch with them, so if there's a serious scheduling issue, we can address it (in case of emergencies etc). We have been completely unable to contact painuser with any attempt. then he went on to compare it to a middleschool breakup where you don't know you're broken up with until all of a sudden the girl doesn't call you back anymore and you just come to the realization yourself. He said he's extremely disappointed and emphasized that it was extremely unprofessional to not even let everyone know that he bailed on us. he also said that BoxeR was upset because he had to wait for a while, and wasn't allowed to go, even though painuser has a history of being a flake. That's pretty much it. Anyone feel free to let me know if i missed something. | ||

This should be a black mark on PU's esports career. No sense of accountability or professionalism. He should at least told NASL he wasnt gonna show so they know it beforehand, not just stand them up. I hope he gets shitlisted from casting for this because he not only made NASL look bad while wasting Boxer's time, but also wasted all the viewers time who were excited to see boxer play albeit against PU who hadnt won a game thusfar. | ||

If he gets 7 and Sen gets 7 he will advance because of HtH. Zenio will get 10. IdrA can get 7 at most, 3 at worst. Right now the person whose advancement they're fighting it out for is Sen. If IdrA falls 0-2 to Boxer there is no way Sen can advance because he will have 11 points at most, versus Boxer's 11, meaning HtH will give Boxer the advancement. IdrA's score against Boxer and Sen's score against Socke will determine whether Sen advances. His fate is half in IdrA's hands. IdrA has 7. He can get 9 at most, 5 at worst. | ||

It's not literally a crime in a legal sense. But in an ethical sense, not showing up for a match that you signed up for, especially against the most respected figure in the industry, is as bad as committing a crime. | ||

Sure this was not the best way to deal with NASL, but plenty of players have made mistakes like this in the past. Shit happens. At the very least it shows that he is unprofessional (not playing his matches 3 weeks in a row), and at the very worst it shows his lack of respect for eSports (not telling NASL of his intention to quit the league, standing up BOXER, the father of SC esports, of all people). | ||

It wastes the time of everyone involved with the NASL, is incredibly rude to the players who were not selected to participate in the NASL, disrespects Boxer, and it has been going on for quite a bit of time now. At the moment it's more than him "being weird". And I'm more than just slightly upset because I got up way early in order to catch a Boxer match. He's acting like a real douchebag by doing this, and it is perfectly understandable why people get upset. I'm glad iNcontrol called him out on it. | ||

That's pretty much it. Anyone feel free to let me know if i missed something. I would be too. It completely fucks up your day having to wake up that early and your sleeping schedule. I'd be pissed that the guy couldn't inform them and that I had to stay up even longer, which will either leave me to stay up all day as to not fuck up my sleeping schedule or sleep and then wake up with half my day gone. | ||
