 for those who do, i'd like to quote nerchio: On April 10 2012 05:38 Nerchio wrote: I agree with you guys that 2 proxy gates is pretty silly but will work against hatchery first... but the second build if not scouted with drone actually crushes usual no gas play from zergs( he had like 6 stalkers vs my lings before speed even if i took gas quite early ) and if he microed better i feel like he could do something in 2nd game, at least i felt that i could lose it :D | ||

Getting a 17 pool and mining 200 gas didn't exactly help either... | ||

I'd really like a statement by Hasu aswell. I like when casters speak their mind and say things as they are but that really felt like overreacting. A lot of people are gonna believe Apollo (and usually you're right doing so) and hate on Hasu, that could actually hurt his career and especially after what Nerchio said, I'm not convinced at all that he was throwing those games. Maybe it's because I'm a fan of Hasu, but I think it's even more so because of what I know about his personality and mindset. Throwing games just doesn't fit the picture. | ||

They didn't make nay drama.... they said what was on most peoples minds. Not once did they say it was for sure him throwing games, Merely stated that judging by the crappy choice of builds and lack of effort that it looks like it was a possibility. Which it is. | ||

Only here could we get blamed for questionable play. If you don't want to have the possibility of throwing games brought up then play properly. | ||

They kept going on about how the admins have to decide how to act with players who throw games, that's as good as saying he threw the games. I'm sorry, but they were going on about it for some minutes, I can't just overhear that. | ||

Damned if we do, damned if we don't. We did NOT at any point say he DID throw the games, we said "if" and "might". The possibility is there. You suggesting we just ignore that? | ||

Well, why didn't you say in the broadcast of Group C that it is possible that Stephano threw his games against MMA on purpose, because he knew he had no chance to advance? | ||

I understand that as a comentator, everything you say is weighted. My problem was not that you said that he might be throwing games, but that you kept going on about something which was not clear(at least in my opinion). You have to be spontaneous as a commentator, but you also have a responsibility, because you can easily destroy the reputation of a player(and I'm not saying you wanted to, as I don't think did). So in short my problem was that it was too much and you were jumping on conclusions for quite some time(again, my opinion). I just wanted to give feedback and in the heat of the moment, I exaggerated, but I think the my main point is still valid. | ||

Honestly I don't want to speculate too much. Hopefully Hasu explains himself. Maybe he was sick, maybe he was not on his normal setup. | ||
