Naniwa is arrogant and BM right up there with, and probably beyond IdrA. It doesn't completely shape my perception of him but it contributes a lot. This instance was only a small piece, we've known for a long time how he is.

If option 1 is easy and option 2 is easier. Why stick with option 1?

If you read the change log you understand that its a change log, would still be simpler and more clear if it wasnt a change log but just the current versions of the maps. So why not do that? Also why not rename the maps with some sort of simple tag that lets you know what kind of spawns are open?

Do everything to prevent missunderstandings and mistakes like these. They ARE killing esports you know.

Or they could go the right page. The one titled "MLG Providence map pool."
Going to the right place is pretty clear and simple.

Apparently not, since they didnt?

Again, why not make it as simple as possible? Are you actually disagreeing with that statement?

MLG's plans of impending invasion of Sweden have been thoroughly spoiled.

Thanks a lot Reddit.

Why? No tournament I know of has any rules against this. I have got absolutely no idea why people assumed MLG did.

This has never been an issue before, don't go changing your rules just because /r/starcraft is an idiotic bandwagon.


GSL and IPL?

It's pretty obvious unless you have no grasp of the english language, I doubt MLG felt the need to change it as no one other than Naniwa has had a problem up until now.

As I stated there are loads of tournaments every week, many with far lower prize pools and far harder to understand map rules which are followed correctly. The fact that between them Naniwa and Complexity can't read a webpage hen it comes to a $50k tournament is... poor

If you read a map wrong you may blame the map for not being simple enough.
If you read the wrong, clearly titled, map, well that's your own fault.

I for one would welcome our new MLG overlords.

But seriously, you do see how some people have been confused by the change log business? So maybe it isnt that clear and might need some change?

How do people who play a computer game not know what a changelog is?

I still dont understand your point of view; If you CAN make something simpler to prevent mistakes, why not do it?

And i would think that the larger the tournament and prize pool, the more clear things ought to be?

Because it doesn't need to be simplified, and the changelog page is actually rather important?

It's been embarrassing to be a part of the community the past 24 hours, as there apparently are people who will do anything to create behind the scenes drama. I think MLG and other tournaments should consider not advertising to participate in Reddit "discussion", considering what their "community" brings to the table is nothing but stupidity that fosters more stupidity. If what MLG wants is to create new fans, directing them to Reddit where the majority seemingly have an incredible low understanding of the game and a incredible lust for TMZ-style drama is not optimal, I imagine.
For anyone who doesn't struggle keeping his saliva contained in his mouth it was glaringly obvious what naniwa meant in the idiot-interview, that the comment was directed towards nesteas build and not the person himself, but due to some negative Reddit posts and a community filled with ill informed drama mongers, this suddenly was a PR problem for coL and something MLG has to spend time elaborating on instead of it just being handled behind the scenes as it should, considering it was a non-issue at best. I feel shit like this takes a lot away from an otherwise cool tournament.

Because literally NO ONE had a problem understanding that webapge until naniwa so they saw no need to change it as every other competitor in every other MLG had managed to understand the rules? Why would they change the webpage from yesterday to today?

They might change it before the first 2012 event, let's call it naniwa's law

From a guy who BM'd his way out of a dozen teams and his own household, "but he's just an idiot" can be taken as insulting rather easily.
