EPTEDIT: Corrected the wrong Code A facts. But to say, that they didn't agree about that set is a little too much, given the ingame chat.

Not a mod note, I don't know -- the post at the bottom of the page from the mod that closed the thread explaining why he closed it. Point being, it's a closed thread, that should be the first clue that it isn't an official statement and shouldn't be taken as absolute fact. | ||

They made an angreement for one map, that byun was going lose in the first round of a weekly cup where the winner could get a spot in a tournament that gives away ONE Code A spot. So saying there was a Code A spot on the line is just false. Secondly they did it spontaneous, no money or anything else valuable was involved. Just a stupid move, but not such a big deal that was made out of it over there in korea. a ban from this particular tournament would've been a reasonable punishment, but coca forfeighting his GSL Code S Ro16 (and with it entirely GSL spot), being banned from the Slayers Team House and A Team and both staying away from tournaments for nearly half a year was way too much. And after all that still complaining about this little shit seems just stupid to me. 1. There was NO CODE A spot. Not even at the monthly finals, and of course not in the weekly itself. 2. There was absolutely no arrangement. Coca wanted to play more ZvT to practice for his 3x Terran group in Code S (with some real Terran monsters in it at the time). So in a Bo3, in their second game, after clearly winning, and talking about needing more T practice (because his terran teammates were off at some event), he suddenly agreed to just gg and go 3rd game, because he was only playing this match for some T practice. 3. Due to this time conflict he would have otherwise just forfeited the whole match - like 10 other people did, and only 6 matches were played anyway in this first round. | ||

When i click on a thread it is not obvious to me that a thread is closed, or that it was debunked. I read the OP and gathered my facts from that. | ||

Also, who's to say it wasn't pre-mediated but IDK thats a whole nother 5 pages of rage That's fine, but you've already expressed your opinion repeatedly and aggressively, on top of which you didn't even have the correct information about the "scandal" until what, 20 minutes ago? If it really pisses you off, write a blog. This isn't the place to campaign against Byun. Edit: Also, "I only read the OP" isn't exactly a good defense. | ||

If not in the OP i don't know where else I would look. Sorry! i'll shut up now , i hope no one is too mad >< its just always confusing to me when people defend people who give up games. | ||

I don't think Byun and Coca are idiots. | ||

It was wrong, but a minor spur of the moment thing. I found naniwa's probe rush or stephano quitting the finals of that tourney to be much more reprehensible acts than what coca/byun did. | ||
