anybody know the stats? I feel like there was some TvT with a ridiculous amount of worker kills but I'm not sure I remember a gumiho game with over 100 killed by both terrans against Ryung I think? but it was before WCS or maybe it was Keen. It was some game on entombed valley back in WoL There was Ryung vs The_StC in WCS 2013 and lots died in that one
Lucifron vs Someone had a ton of worker deaths from hellbats as well. WCS 2013 iirc.

If you can win a Dreamhack you can compete in the GSL. something something taeja And of course Life lost to ForGG at Dreamhack, so clearly Life is Code B level.

that was in 2012 tho

A player of his caliber, with his experience, his results, and having used the ridiculous number of scans that he did, is absolutely incapable of a level of incompetence to believe that he could have won the game from that position.

No we cannot DQ people left and right on loose accusations, it would be totally unfair of course. Especially in WCS. I'm still down though.

And we have to live with this jerk in the Ro16. I hope someone is able to file a valid complaint about this resulting in a disqualification, but I'm not holding my breath. I don't like what we saw yesterday either. I want to make that clear. This match and what we had yesterday is really making it difficult for me. I love the game and I love WCS, but the last two days have really shown the worst matches ever for me. I couldn't even see the last series yesterday due to the previous stalemates taking so long to finish. I respect players that try to do everything they can to win in WCS, because this is it, the big thing, and they own it to themselves, their sponsors and teams etc to do anything to win. If Happy thinks he has the best chance to go mech vs zerg he really should do so every game, even if it takes 2 hours per map. It is, as you say, Blizzard's fault for allowing this kind of game-play. That being said, what ForGG did now went well beyond a stalemate between SH and mech. He had lost one hour before he finally gave up. So yeah, SH vs mech yesterday + today's nonsense really didn't make my weekend. So far below my expectations. but would you have made such a post had he not done that? I dunno you made some good points. what's done is done though. I hate forGG tonight but timorrow it will be cool.
I would have made many small happy posts instead of a long miserable one if he had not done it.

I don't believe he was playing for a win, but a draw. You're also making the judgement based on the viewer's perfect information plus the analysis of casters, players on twitter, etc. So, no, it's still bad policy to disqualify a player because you think he was stalling in a position where the logical goal of playing for a draw might be in his mind. Again, unless you think we should disqualify people who are trying to do everything to not lose, which is terrible.

The first time I watched competive BW I thought T was the only race played at high level cause the whole tourney was almost 100% terran.
