They should apologize to DRG for messing up and having him play the wrong opponent, not cancel the result of a game already played Why ? Is it more unfair then DRG having to play harder opponent when he ended up 1st in the group ? Sticking to system is better as one way or another you are being unfair to someone, so at least it is according to rules. Doesnt matter. The game was already played... IEM should apologize to DRG for fucking up, not cancel a legitimate game now they just apologize to TT1 for fucking up isn't doing the same thing and getting it right? what the hell is wrong with you guys? you just dont do that AFTER an official match has been played. Very bad move by IEM. Apparently IPL raised the bar of being professional way too high last week. IEM just bombed esports back into the stone age.
TT1 essentially got a free win because of an error, and Top who legitimately owned his group would have had to play DRG.
Top having to play DRG in the Ro8 would have been a joke.
They are correcting their error, if they don't all the results are void because they are not legitimate.
If you were Top or DRG who legitimately won their groups would you be happy that you got openly screwed?
TT1 is not getting screwed, he has to play who he has to play according to the rules and how he played in the group. He's just not getting a free advantage from an error. Disappointing for him but taking advantage of the error would be both unsporting and call any results from the tournament into question.

I have a hypothetical question:
If TT1 meets Gatored in the finals or third place, will he start with 3-0?

Ever considered they just found out after the games? And that they then had the choice of correcting the mistake and screw one guy over or let it stand and make the whole tournament a joke for not sticking with the rules? We shouldn't bash IEM because they didn't know their own rules?
no we shouldnt bash them for a mistake one of their refs made.
its not like they intended for this to happen or rigged it so this would occur. shit happens. accept it and move on.

Shit happens, thats life.
As was said it is unfortunate that this happened, but it did happen. Just have to deal with it, whether TT1 or DRG like it or not, its going to happen; these type of thing happen, players know it and fans know it, I highly doubt that either of them has not seen this before and also that this will be the last time.

But it was an official match. They should have canceled it right away but not after the match. by doing so they official'ed that match.
So once again. Do you REALLY think they realized it before the game? Does it make sense to you?

With the laundry list of mistakes IEM admins have made in the past and now also I wonder how these guys are paid to do their job.
Going to email Carmac, this stuff is easy for a competent admin.
