EPTMLG Raleigh Day 1 BLUE Live Report Thread - Page 15
| Forum Index > StarCraft 2 Tournaments |
Obligatory public note for all large tournament threads: The following is a list of behaviors that will get immediate bans: 1. Whining about stream 2. Bashing other games 3. Flaming other users 4. Bashing players 5. Complaining about imbalance. It is in no way complete. Keep in mind that there's a difference between pointing out that the SC2 and CoD streams were switched and whining about it (same thing on pointing out/asking about stream lag and whining about it, etc.). Also, just because you post something and aren't immediately banned for it doesn't mean you won't get caught. We'll be going through this thread very carefully. That being said, enjoy today's games!

It's a player's responsibility to know when his match is and show up on time for it. Tournament organizers can't be forced to baby players through tournaments. That being said, TLO's been to many tournaments and definitely knows how to operate at one. I'm actually confused as to why this happened, and look forward to an explanation. | ||

Logistics fail. the players have to show themselves to the game they have to play, not the other way around. the schedule for the pool play has been out since when? u can't call that logistics fail; not from mlg side, at least. | ||

It's not like he woke up late at wasn't on the floor. There's proof that he was there sitting in the front row watching Idra and Bomber play. There must be some miscommunication. | ||

Or you know, release a schedule way in advance and let the players know? Oh wait, THEY DID THAT ALREADY. TLO probably just messed up by forgetting/thinking wrong. I don't really see how you can blame MLG here unless they flat out told the wrong times to him. | ||

So apparently TLO was watching Idra vs Bomber from the crowd and missed his first match. Starting off 0-2... WOOPS! | ||

Didn't it happen to whitera or someone at the last MLG where someone told him the wrong match time so he got dqed when he showed up? I imagine its probably a similar situation. | ||

We can't really speculate too much without knowing more. Suppose he was contacted and didn't feel he had time to prepare for SeleCT or something? I think it's best to wait for a statement from either party before we start attaching blames. 'Tis a pity we didn't get to see them duke it out though. | ||
