I'm late to the party, but I'm picking up a pitchfork. Painuser, you're a dick. Inconsiderate -_-

All of this can be solved really easily. Make the players themselves make a huge deposit, that they will get back unless they don't show up without good reason.

Works in "real life" too...in fact, stipulating that someone has to pay huge sums in case of breach of contract is everyday's business. Don't like it? Don't participate.



This with Painuser is probably a one-time-only occurence.
Any player in a team who pulls of something like this, will definitely be kicked out of his team for doing that and Grubby would probably get into trouble with his sponsors.

Painuser didn't play last week either, and Grubby may 'have' to play, but it's still commendable that he's actually going for it, a true professional!

Boxer had to stay up for the entire day it will be noted because painuser didn't just notify NASL that he was quiting NASL

Seriously. What a joke.

I have to admit that I didn't follow NASL that closely, but I thought there were numerous walkovers without any reason?

What I meant is, even notifying NASL that you can't play shouldn't be acceptable - only things that should matter are dying/dead relatives, you yourself being sick etc. Basicly the stuff that also would excuse you from showing up to work.

This game is so boring after losira/mma


lol why?

EDIT: yea watched it lol losira and mma ARE boring....effing marine/tank vs muta/baneling/speedling with some roaches... it's like repeating some mindless mantra for the hundredth time

dam losira sucked too... wtf didn't guard against drops? let spawning pool go down?

plus MMA coulda sniped those hatcheries and spawning pool a lot faster...it was just the same old thing that others can execute better


Yeah i feel you boy, always the same composition of units roach/sling/banelings/muta, why Losira didn't use some lurker/scourge/queen/defiler?

wait...

Don't get me wrong, I'm not trying to take away credit from Grubby.
Just saying that something like Painuser probably won't ever happen again.

There are a few select words I would have for Painuser, but I'd rather not release them as I value my reputation here.

I am dissapointed that he did what he did, but thats his choice and if he really wants to be out he can. Wish he woulda been more civilized about it though.

Hm?

Top 2 in 5 groups make it straight to offline, then the top 20 players beyond that will battle for the last spots - i thought?

15 make it out, but top 2 of each group don't have to fight through the playoff brackets for the remaining 5 spots

Even politely informing withdrawal is better than making opponents wait for him.

I think all the walk-overs had goods excuses so far.

Like White-Ra had to forfeit his match because the Dreamhack didn't let him play. (it happened after Dreamhack and they wouldn't give him a computer to play on) That was against July and he had to wait all-night as well. Not very pleasant, he could've tried to notify the NASL and July, but still acceptable.

And MC once had problems with a flight just after Dreamhack, I think. Jinro wrote something about it here in TL. And I think MC once had a scheduling conflict in another match, but he notified the NASL well beforehand and hence there was no problem.

I think the main issue is that, even though it takes place online, the NASL is so inflexible with the time, because they want to record it live.

WTF,aren't Incontrol and Painuser co-hosts in Inside the Game??? How on earth is it possible that Incontrol hasn't talked to Painuser for more than one week,or that Painuser has indeed decided to drop out of NASL but doesn't talk to anyone about it. And last,how will they be able to work together if NASL does plan to crush Painuser down,like the statement implied??

"Boxer Obtains a 2-0 W.O. Painuser Gives up on NASL and BM's not even notifying NASL of this NASL hints at "this will not be forgotten" Boxer had to stay up for the entire day it will be noted because painuser didn't just notify NASL that he was quiting NASL"

I can't understand this, it's such bad grammar and there's no punctuation!

Sure but you got the gist of it right? If you didn't, here's a summary.

-BoxeR gets 2-0 W.O over Painuser.
-Painuser forfeits his place in NASL without even officially notifying them. (I guess an automatic forfeit since they've had no contact?)
-NASL hints (I assume by the casters) that this will affect his possible future NASL participations.
-BoxeR had to stay up through the night because of Painuser not notifying him or NASL of his absence. (arguably the worst transgression! :S)

Ok, then my bad. I just looked up the results of several playdays without watching the games and figured that some of the walkovers were simple no-shows without valid excuses.
