You have absolutely no idea how many PCBangs in Korea were running pirated BW with LAN back in the late 90's/early 00's. Broodwar sold over 4.5 million copies in korea, about 10% of it's total population. What more do you want from korea they bought lots of copies! (note this is when it was at 9.5 million worldwide and was later 11 million. How many of those from Korea do you think?) Also sc2's lack of lan did not help it sell anymore in Korea in fact it isn't popular at all! Are you sure blizzard made the right decisions here? http://www.usatoday.com/tech/gaming/2007-05-21-starcraft2-peek_N.htm I am sure they made the wrong one. And Gabe Newell knows that. He even holds presentations about that exact same topic for other developers. It just seems like Blizzard doesnt attend them.

If you want to get philosophical, morals are actually extremely important, and all I see here are victors laughing and gloating at the losers in the face of an unjust situation while the victors conveniently ignore the details of the matter at hand in favor of conveniently oversimplifying things. But it's typical of human nature, so I can't really blame anyone here nor be surprised in the least.

MKP was easily dead...parting would just have to walk into main, and then sit on production while everything slowly died n use the warp prism to reinforce his army. MKP units can't be microed to death if they die once they come out. (if he didn't have a warp prism or pylon at the end then parting could just move his army across the map)

Why the hell do people think MKP losing= Startale win? Ghostking and Creator both took out Startale between the two of them after Maru and MKP lost. There is no logical reason why they couldn't do so again. And Ghostking beat a fresh Parting in the previous Prime vs. Startale after playing two previous games. If MKP can lose in GSTL yet crush in other tournaments, there is no reason why the two couldn't stage a comeback.
We can debate who should have won Parting vs Marineking. We cannot conclusively debate who should have won the series though. It could have gone any way.

Oh well, done discussing. It will be finals everyone will remember. And maybe, just maybe, that this tragedy managed to convince Blizzard to change it's policies or quicken their solution.

I'll take 50%, that's why we got remake and it was best decision to make.

This final wasn't good because it was too one sided, it was almost like an all-kill by one player. I'm pretty sure the refs know what they're doing, they watched the replay several times. I didn't think during the DC it was decisive enough that Parting had the game won. He's leading, yeah. We gotta see the replay ourselves I guess. But look at the Bomber game, even Bomber thought he won (2v3 bases). Then he loses... compared to the Parting game when there were like 5v5 bases.
Tomorrow will be better though. It ain't gonna be that easy for MKP.

If you think he was dead you clearly have never seen MKP make a comeback by micro-ing his last few units. He would have kited all day in his base inside the maze of barracks and stabilized.
And maybe he wouldn't of and maybe Parting would have won, HE PROBABLY WOULD HAVE WON.
BUT he didn't. The game was interrupted before it was truly over. If he had 5 barracks left and 0 units then we could say it was over, but it wasn't over. You can't say you could predict the outcome of that back and forth game, it was too close to call. And its not like Parting just crushed MKP the whole time and then it went to DC, it was prolly the closest PvT I've ever watched. Based on just that alone for you to be upset about a regame is ridiculous and you're just being blind fanboys. Be happy you got to see the rematch, although it wasn't half as good. And just be happy you got to watch one of the greatest terrans (arguably the greatest) of all time play more games and hoist the trophy he so clearly deserves.
Dwelling on the negatives are what you sad people do best. So there's really nothing anyone can say that will help you see all the facts. You'll just focus on conjecture, speculation, and your judgement over the GSL referee's.
So if I have defeated all of your units and my units are in your base you probably keep arguing that you didn´t lose that game because you had 15+ barracks still standing there. Good job posting the same post several times, doesn´t make it a bit more logical, though.
You people keep saying he was in MKP's base. HE WASN'T IN HIS BASE!!! He wasn't even up the FIRST ramp yet!
He was still attacking the 3 or so barracks towards the center of the map. He sent in a warp prism into his base that we saw get followed by vikings. Is THAT what you're referring to??? You guys clearly weren't watching the same game as me.

Meh, this topic is just a bunch of uneducated kids with no arguments now, ignore horrible posts like that. It is just a troll fest at his point.
Just ignore this topic completely and move on to the Proleague finals. ^.^

Wow, technical problems poisoning what should have been a really cool finals. Don't want to comment on who should have won, but I just want to note that this really hurts sc2's competitive integrity.

I'd love to hear the thoughts of some referees and the two players and their coaches as well. I agree that the information we as spectators had was too limited, even though we could see the number of units they had. We can't properly asses the production cycle and position.
I'm willing to trust that experienced Korean observers and players who analyzed the situation did not take such a decision lightly and may have had solid reasons. It would help a lot if they put forward a detailed press release with their analysis.
