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.
Transfer that into real sports like NFL, NBA or Champions League in Football. And tell me they would do the same thing IEM just did. :facepalm:
that's how I feel about it too... if this ever happened in real sports, the tournament definitly will get sued all over
What the fuck? No it wouldn't. If a legitimate mistake happened that screwed up the seeding of a major tournament i'm 100% sure the tournament organizers would follow their own rules (whatever they may be). 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.
Bolded the wrong part in your whole text. It's not about what you think...
Again, once a decisions was made, they are official even if the decision is/was wrong in retrospect. You stick to it. Every bloody professional organisation does it that way. Otherwise hell would break loose and teams would sue tournament organisations all over the place.

Thats not what i think. Thats what i know would happen. They did make a decision and the decision was that the games did not count.

This isn't true. I know for a fact that MLB has overturned/replayed games due to wrong calls by their officials. This even after the games were over.

And the opposing teams(int his case played by DRG and Top) would sue if they would not reversed their mistake. In that scenario all tournament organizers choose to go with the rules and regames as in the end it will cost them less no matter what happens. Not even talking about the fact that it is correct way to do things.

Lol just no. When mistakes happen, stick to the rules of the tourney or loose credibility and be sued anyway by the other side. Stop this BS
