A referee made a mistake so Gatored and Dong Rae Gu were in wrong order (1st/2nd) in their group. This was found out while TT1 and Gatored were already playing their QF. After TT1 beat Gatored 3-0, IEM said that match didn't count and TT1 has to play DRG tomorrow instead.

oh thats really great news if tt1 gets 4th place money. now nobody can bitch about that error I'd say

They screwed up the tiebreakers for the pool. Gatored should not have been in a position to play TT1, so their match shouldn't have happened.
So they canceled the 3-0 TT1 victory, and swapped opponents so that TT1 will play DRG and Gatored will play TOP, both tomorrow. In compensation, TT1 is guaranteed top 4 prize money.

If the rules stated that they would have to replay games in a mistake like this, then they would replay games and no one would get sued. sometimes my head hurts when i read shit like this.
Football matches have been replayed for reasons far less compelling than this.

Referee made a misstake and seeding was judged wrong. TT1 vs. gatored was supposed to be TT1 vs DRG (same change on other side of bracket). This was discovered during the matches were being played, and they were deemed to not count at all. The matches will be "replayed" tomorrow with correct opponents.
<3 you Morrow!

I think in "real sports" they wouldn't have a regame just because rescheduling everything would be more effort than it's worth.

DRG and Gatored was in the same group, only 1st's can face 2nd's in random drawings but DRG faced TOP and TT1 faced Gatored (TOP and DRG finished 1st). Then TT1 and Gatored played a bo5 which TT1 won with 3-0, Carmac then faced up to the mistake on stream and changed it so now we have fresh ro8's with the correct brackets.

The situation is not comparable as matches in those sports are not played immediately one after another and such mistakes are easily spotted before the match.

A referee placed DRG second in group B, below Gatored.
TT1 was to play first place from Group B and played gatored and beat him 3:0.
But then it turned out that DRG was supposed to be first and TT1 was supposed to play DRG, so his match with Gatored was declared invalid and he did not advance to the Ro4.

$ 1,250 now for TT1 no matter what

As I've stated in this thread, "real sports" have had replay games due to referee mistakes.

I think Rotti just called Operation: Desert Storm a movie... lol

i guess one particular referee will have 450 reasons to be sad on payday :D

When I read this I realised something, this has happened to me before.
We played the quarterfinals of U18 National Championship and won 4-1, we played the wrong opponent and the game was nullified. Then we lost 1-0 to the real opponents and the team we beat later became champions.
We were not happy, but it got overshadowed by the horrible referee in the 1-0-loss
We even travelled for 3-4 hours to play the wrong match. Sick!

People wonder why people hate to take responsibility for things, look no farther than this thread. You have IEM taking full responsibility for the screw up and fixing it as best they can, and you still have people coming in here talking about lawsuits and boycotts and everything else. It's no wonder no one wants to take responsibility for anything anymore. It's a lose lose situation, because people have no sense of perspective.
