because he lost a PvP (an incredibly fluctuating match up atm) to Minigun? Give me a break.
Its not like its his first game to lose.
He has lost all his games recently. Even when he cheesed and he should theoretically win. I have to agree on what he said. iNcontroL is probably also dissapointed in himself and he isnt really improving at all so I think it would be the best for himself to go back being a caster.
So basically, when a professional player isn't improving fast enough, he should quit.

yeah i think the turnout is poor, its a shame because the quality is top class
Unfortunately the tournament is on the wrong side of America otherwise I'd be there. Sadly, I lack the money for a plane ticket or the time to drive for a week to AC.
Hopefully as some people have said the turnout will be better as it goes on, Thursday is a funky day to start a tourney i must admit
Yeah I think it's a pretty sure bet that this evening we'll see more people come in and then even more over the weekend. I was just more expressing my disappointment that the event wasn't somewhere nearer to where I live like Vegas or San Fran. I'd love to attend.

How does a good seed and an $1000 not matter?
I thought the seeding was pretty irrelevant - and you are talking about 1k in a $100k tournament

How does a good seed and an extra $1000 not matter?
If you want to win you are going to have to beat the best at the tournament to win. So seeding really isn't that important in a competitive pool of players.
