I think this excuse is ridiculous. Coz the things that about when to play and how to play had already been set up in MLG's website.

As a player, u need to see it as earlier as u can and keep it in mind.We didn't have any admin come and tell us when to play and how to play.We are always following the rules.So,i think this is Miya's fault,he can't blame others.
And i feel sorry for the admin who was terminated......u got nothing wrong with this.



Yep 100% this.
It is astounding how many young people get financial aid for playing these tournaments and show the inability to read and follow rules, times etc. Some have even a management behind them who should assist and control.

They probably meant to say they terminated his employment/contract.

At least I hope so.

Today during the MLG operated WCS America Invite-Only Challenger League Qualifier, a situation arose due to an MLG admin error that warrants clarification. Players involved included Miya, Demuslim, Moosegills, and Sasquatch.

After having a Bye in Winners Round 1, Miya showed up to his Winners Round 2 Match late, resulting in MLG admins making him forfeit the match and instructing him to play a Losers Round 2 Match against Sasquatch. Miya went on to beat Sasquatch.

Shortly after Miya’s victory, MLG was notified that Miya had shown up late to Winners Round 2 due to an MLG admin providing him with an incorrect start time for his match. MLG immediately retracted Miya’s Winners Round 2 forfeit to give him the Winner's Bracket placement he deserved.

Miya’s manager advised Miya to accept his Winners Bracket forfeit feeling that any other outcome would be unfair to Demuslim and Moosegills, the other players involved in the subsequent matches.

After Miya conceded the Winners Round 2 victory to Moosegills, MLG let all Miya/Demuslim/Moosegills/Sasquatch results stand. The current bracket is available here.

Additionally, MLG terminated the admin who originally supplied Miya with the incorrect match information.

We apologize to the players and those impacted by the admin errors.

MLG terminated the admin

Pretty drastic measures.

TL seems to overreact to just about everything and demand people lose their jobs.


Not doing your job properly makes you lose it, nothing wrong with the community reaction.

Come on, such a small mistake ...

It's not about how big or small the mistake is, it's about the consequence for the players.

Obviously, qualify or not is a big difference for them.

I don't like your blanket statement. You must be terminated.

I actually think the biggest mistake here, although there were many, was to restore miya to the wb after he played a lb match. Seems mlg were proud of that fact though. But you fired the other guy... its all good now. rofl

WTF is this.

I do not approve of this language, or behavior either. People make mistakes somehow, no need to chop their heads off like alice in wonderland.

The admin made a mistake that couldn't be rectified - any way you try to solve it, one or more players would have gotten effed over. That is about as serious a mistake you can make as an admin, and although firing the guy is really harsh, all these guys have probably been warned from the last cluster fuck. I would never support people losing their jobs needlessly, but MLG's decision here is very understandable.

EDIT: MLG's brackets suck, btw... They should just use liquipedia instead.

How is this even possible? Maybe a terminator movie reference is warranted as it's unreal.
