Stop whining that the crowd wasn't going insane after a terrible game (Flash outclassed Bisu pretty badly).
Okay, I'm not out just yet.
Why do the games need to be amazing? People were aware these guys aren't the best in the game yet. It was the event, the spectacle, the (supposed) atmosphere that was the entire hype. How good the games were should not have effected the crowd.

I hope you're joking. Saying stuff like this is serious. I wouldn't be surprised if it was actually. Yeah, actually they were just pretending to play there, and grubby played backstage with bisus account, idra played with JD account, and thorzain with flash account. In a Tourney with no prize pool which is mainly there to get MLG viewers and KeSPA players foriegn exposure i would not doubt that they staged a finals. I wouldn;t be upset if they did either this was a publicity tourney nothing more if the tournament were staged, it would have been Flash vs Jaedong. wtf is wrong with you people. Always so quick to say something is rigged or staged. Just like Blizzcon. MVP says that was his most meaningful win and people still think it was fixed. I know its so incredibly annoying, people calling everything rigged these days and throwing it around lightly. People need to get their BS conspiracy theories outta here.
Just hit the report button.

this is true i was at the last mlg anaheim from around 9am to 1am on saturday its really exhausting

the last game of the day kind of sucked unfortunately...

I'm actually laughing at people think they rigged it. Did they make it so the best possible combinations could happen? Of course. It's not like they seeded these players or anything; this was a hype tournament. They tried to get the bracket as exciting as it possibly could be.
But as for actually influencing results? Korean's and Brood War people take anything even resembling match fixing extremely seriously. Coca and Byun are great examples of what even minor shit does. No way in hell they rig a tournament even without a prize pool. Flash played better than we've been seeing out of the Proleague, but otherwise the players played at the level we've seen in it.
I'm probably just getting trolled, but it is actually a rather serious accusation to say they rigged it even if your joking.

Except few people watch American football outside of the US.
Dota is big all around. It's large in the US, large in Western Europe, huge in Eastern Europe, huge in CIS, huge in SEA, and gigantic in China.

Thats when we really start feeling awake... Not for the people who woke up earlier in the morning to catch a full day of games. Maybe the people who overslept past noon could have a bit more energy, but anyone who does that when trying to attend an MLG live isn't doing it right.

I've been to 3 day concerts where the same shit happens including ridiculously loud music and tons of beer and hangovers. I understand we're all nerds here but if you think a MLG is exhausting enough that cheering is impossible you really have not experienced enough in your life.

Your lungs and voice die out on you in the middle of the second day, even with constant water. If you bothered hearing MKP vs Stephano, you heard a pretty big crowd. You can't possibly keep that up every time you watch a game. So here you have guys that have been cheering every half an hour thanks to the casters for well over 10 hours, how would you expect them to react at 1 in the morning? Seriously, grow some brains.
