I wouldn't want to advance due to a technicality and would rather earn it. Demuslim/Moose took the easy way out by trying to forfeit and forcing this situation to happen. Moose should have played miya and demu play the winner of that so people don't advance due to a technicality. I would feel a lot better earning it the right way if I was in their situation, rather than through a technicality.
exactly my thoughts. i also support rich's tweet about the situation.
Are you serious? Shafting two people that had nothing to do with it to fix a situation you CAUSED by having incompetent admins is acceptable?
There is no right decision here, just less shitty ones. They should focus on hurting the least amount of people.
There is a right decision, and they finally made it (thankfully).
MLG and Miya screwed up and it caused Miya to get a match loss. End of story. There is no need to involve other players in the conversation at all. As soon as the first game following the screw-up was played there is no "fixing it." It's done. MLG needed to "own their own mistake" and just apologize/compensate/etc as best they can. There is no rolling back the bracket to fix an hours-old screwup (e.g. Hyun eliminating people after being DQ'd).
It's scary to think that had Demu/Moose not threatened to forfeit that MLG would have made a really stupid call.
NO! Miya did not do anything wrong! An admin stated the wrong time.
If a fuck up like this happens the only logical thing to do is to roll back! It would not of unfairly hurt anyone, but forfeiting Miya (Who was screwed by an admin's fuckup) is hurting someone!
It's not logical at all to hurt 2 players instead of 1 just because you're stupid and can't hire competent admins.
The way they done it more than 1 player got hurt. Everyone in that bracket has been screwed because MLG didn't fix their mistake.

man, threatening to forfeit as your FIRST reaction is probably not a good way to ingratiate yourself to a tournament
Funny how when it's an EG player you've got MLG's back hardcore but the second a TL player is inconvenienced you try to rally the community into witchhunting MLG.
R1CH is also complaining that Gennia and TB aren't fighting for their players on twitter. The TL staff seems to love witch hints lately and making sure all dirty laundry is aired in public.
TL staff is allowed an opinion too, even if they operate a big website, no?
People are allowed to dislike their opinions and find them hypocritical even though they operate a big website, no?
Sure, but the accusation in the post has nothing to do with having an opinion.
That I dont like the recent decisions to handle all disputes with MLG in public, even when it isn't their player. MLG dropped the ball, deal with it by email like professions, not on twitter.
That's not nearly ESPORTS enough
All rules disputes will be handled on twitter from now on. Rulings made my witch hunt on reddit

Google Kevin Bacon.
I wasn't even thinking of him, but yeah they look pretty similar as well :p

Well, it depends, if you're staff of TL the site, not TL the team then why would you act as if you're a part of the team?
Yeah, I don't by that part, TL is TL. They all work for the same people. They are not free of bias, because they did give their own team "team of the year"

oh god, come on now
so I'm a big fan of RoX.KIS and if I was a good writer and had fun writing stuff I could volunteer to be a writer for TL and then I would be biased for Liquid because I'm a writer on TL.net without getting paid at all or having any other benefits
makes no sense to me
ok that's misleading because we're talking about staff but everyone kinda started the same way, didn't they
