By the way, anyone with MLG rank points will be drafted into our invasion militia.

Can we stop with the change log nonsense and discuss impending occupation of a foreign nation?

Why is the change log importat though?

You don't think that a specific outlining of all the changes over time to the map pool is important?

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 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


Yeah, im not saying its a HUGE deal, im just confused about the people defending things being more confusing than they need to be. (Even if they arent very confusing at all to begin with) So please understand that i am not mad and on the MLG conspiracy bandwagon.

Also are you sure there hasnt been more confusion? We get to se maybe 5% of all the games in the tour so might be more open bracket confusion. Just saying.

And yes, im not DEMANDING and IMMEDIATE change (!!), its just something to think about for the future to avoid this sort of completely pointless drama.

Im not trying to make a point, im actually asking. Why is it important?

Watching people's replays where their build seems silly from a couple MLGs ago but you realize they had it specifically for cross positions Shakuras, or if you're confused why someone is scouting a certain way and trying to figure out why, and then you look at the changelog and realize only certain spawns were possible. Plus it's of general interest to see the evolution of the map pool.

Plus basically everything related to software includes a changelog somewhere.

Yeah, good point. I can see that being important actually.

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 forbids every kind of replay watching in between matches.


I heard IPL also...

anyways thanks adam & MLG for the clarification.

as said after the first stop the build over is shown anyways on score screen anyways (blizzard UI problem for tournaments) , should of just re-game on a different map in that type of situation if you want to be totally fair across the board.

Ha, trying to divert attention from the actual drama in order to focus on some crackpot's bizarre conspiracy theory?

Well played MLG, well played. I don't know what your real plan is but for damn sure it's not got anything to do with Sweden or investors from Macau and nothing to do with this tournament. The game is afoot and the starting pistol has rang its final bell, let the dogs of war begin!

the real drama should be around the lack of replays!

is it even possible to mess with the accounts somehow found by the replay data with the new privacy settings?

so many nestea games i'd like to watch over a 1000x >_<

It would have been cool if they played a showmatch where Naniwa couldn't make one unit of Nestea's choice. :D

Are you kidding me? Just because you determined that the replay didn't have an effect on the match doesn't mean it's ok that Naniwa broke the rules. This is ridiculous.

The admin didn't tell him that, I know because I was standing right there. Why wouldn't a player playing in a National Championship know where the spawns were? He chose the map, it is his responsibility to know the intricacies involved.


Why would Naniwa blatantly LIE and PAUSE the game if an admin hadn't told him that? The whole story seemed very fishy, like MLG was trying to cover their asses.

Again.

He did not break a rule reviewing a replay, it is not in our rules that you cannot.

No admin ever told him to pause a game. He was in a booth, isolated, and he paused it to complain to an admin.

Please stop guys. This is over.

Or you know Naniwa isn't a native english speaker and he misunderstood what the admin said.

I don't get it. I didn't watch the game but according to the recap, Nani asked for bathroom break but was denied, but still paused the game after it has started and went to bathroom anyway. Why was that allowed? By doing this, the situation of watching replay OR the build order (which should NOT happen) was created. By that logic, Nani is still at fault, but have I got it wrong?
