At least until the end of the month, after which I'll be gone till mid-August.

Also thanks for tidying up the OP, this tournament gave me strife yesterday.

The format is good but needs some adjustments (something to help the scapegoat)

The format is definitely interesting, it makes for fun viewing. But I have to agree with the general sentiment that there should be something to ease the focus fire on a single contender.

Maybe a notion of sending extra money their way for surviving ># (say, 3 or 4) bo3 matches in one day? The upshot to something like that could be an added layer of risk/mind games. Not to say that playing at less than your best is appropriate, but it could be interesting to see players take bigger risks to draw more opponents if they feel confident they can overcome the onslaught.

I didn't realize this tournament was already happening and I just checked the TLwiki to see the results from yesterday. The format looks very unique and interesting but how is it that 1 person can be picked 6 times in a row and go 3-3 and be knocked out of the tournament without winning any money while some players have a losing record and got $$$? They should have made it to where if you are picked and win you can't be chosen for the next match. This way there is a reward for winning.

I wake up, and I still can't help but feel annoyed about the outcome of yesterday. I don't care who you are, playing 6 BO3's in a row is exhausting, and for your last opponent to be a former GSL champ and multiple tournament winning champ... it's too much... and yet Major and Scarlett get a free pass for literally not winning anything yesterday... c'mon

But I really was disappointed at Polt for his decision. I don't know what he was thinking if an extra few hundred dollars meant something to him, once again for someone who's already won a lot more than Puck ever will in his career. Maybe it would have been entertaining if Puck won the series, but who honestly thought that was going to happen against someone of Polt's caliber?

format is stupid.
puCK goes 3-3 and wins 0 dollars. Scarlett and MajOr both lose to puCK, end up 0-1 and at the end of the day win 600 bucks each.

I think HuK will be the main target today.

I really enjoy the format, but I think maybe they should limit the number of times a particular player can be challenged in one round. In the case of a six player group, maybe only allow one player to be challenged a maximum of three times per round. The group could be seeded such that the higher seeds get to play first, so that the lower seeds may not necessarily get a chance to challenge the player they want to play the most.

It's not only about the game. puCK should have taken them all out on a kick-off dinner the evening before. Maybe given Major Windy a pokeman card present. Told Scarlett that HuK talked shit about her. He should have played the game

I don't care who you are, playing 6 BO3's in a row is exhausting, and for your last opponent to be a former GSL champ and multiple tournament winning champ... it's too much... and yet Major and Scarlett get a free pass for literally not winning anything yesterday... c'mon

But I really was disappointed at Polt for his decision. I don't know what he was thinking if an extra few hundred dollars meant something to him, once again for someone who's already won a lot more than Puck ever will in his career. Maybe it would have been entertaining if Puck won the series, but who honestly thought that was going to happen against someone of Polt's caliber?


Cleary it was not just Polt decision, but more the other players decision.
He was the last hope for the others to get extra 100$, they would have blamed him for not picking Puck. In his interview, I feel like he was a bit embarrassed by the situation.
It's probably also a way to protect himself. He is the one who provided them extra money so he gains recognition and won't be challenged for a while. (Also because he is a beast)
I think it a good situation for Polt, also since the two zergs lost 1 life.

I didn't see the interview but you can't blame Polt for also picking Puck. If it comes to more money there is nothing wrong with it. It's the tournament organizers fault for allowing the situation to occur by making some questionable decisions regarding the tournament rules. Also, Polt is easily the best player at that tournament, I highly doubt anyone will/would willingly pick him.

I don't want to sound like a total conspiracy theorist, but it also feels partly like a decision Red Bull whispered in Polt's ears... for entertainment value to spice things up... unfortunately the outcome really was a let down.

And what a joke if the extra $100 mattered to them more, all of them (and yes that includes Major) have earned more than Puck ever will via tournament winnings or salaries from their teams, which again is why I'm really disappointed in Polt for making that decision at the end if and only if it came down to it being his and the 5 others decision
