Of what?

How can you someone so handsome? I don't think people understand the situation that transpired between Miya/DeMu/Moose. Miya was late (apparently an admin told him the wrong time) so Moose got a Bye. Half-way in the Demu vs. Moose Miya some back and MLG wants to put him in winners bracket and Demu threaten to FF if that happens? A more accurate summary: MLG are fuckups and fucked up the times for multiple people. Many of them were responsible enough to show up on time or early anyway. Moose waited two hours for Miya while tweeting @ him during this wait time. After two hours Moose finally got the walk-over. 40 minutes later, when DeMu and Moose were 1-1 in their series, they are suddenly told to stop and that the series will be void while Moose replays Miya due to Admin error of giving him the wrong time. DeMu points out that this is preferential treatment for a known Korean player and that if Miya was some no-name, this would be not even be up for debate and the no-name would be SOL. DeMu then says he would rather forfeit than support such a decision.

Meh that wasn't impressive play at all, that bracket was way to easy as well.

Gratz to Tilea. Interesting builds and decisionmaking!

Would be not consistent at all with the previous qualifiers, mind you, where Hyun knocked out several people after being disqualified and they essentially told those players "deal with it". It was poorly run by MLG. I'm just saying if I was a competitor I would sleep better at night knowing I earned my spot the right way and not through a technicality. It's not about what's right or wrong in this case rule wise, but sportsmanship and integrity of earning things the right way. Eh, in the end, if I was a competitor on that level I'd be glad to get into WCS no matter what and have the chance to win 300$ or more in the first season and get a couple of televised matches. WCS NA is a meatgrinder for NA players, if you're picky about technicalities you might as well give up. I don't think it was bad sportsmanship or anything btw. It's not like you're playing against a guy and you slap him in the face, it's more like you're playing against a guy and the referee slaps you in the face and deduces points from you and you're standing up for yourself in front of the sports court.

Demuslim did do anything wrong. No reason for him to risk not qualifying just for the sake of another player. MLG dropped the ball, it's their problem, not the other players

drunked really needs to learn how to macro behind all that harass, and maybe even give up some of the cuteness in the name of better macro.
Still, he shows a ton of potential. And great play Tilea! congrats.

I like these NA games quite much ... really weird (and full of mistakes) but really entertaining somehow.

What are you referring to? I didn't see TL admins rallying any kind of pitchforking? Maybe I missed something?
