Nah, I think it's well deserved. It's only one season. Imagine if it was a Korean that did it. He'd be out for 100 seasons, kicked out of team house.... | ||

No he did NOT earn the spot. Please look at the "Naniwa not invited to Code S" OP. He was being CONSIDERED for the spot and was a favorite probably. Not anymore. | ||

Incontrol was put into a very awkward situation, being forced to talk to an (ex-?)porn actress without any preparation. Not only that, he also didn't get any help from his co-hosts (who where too drunk/tired and thought it was funny seeing Geoff struggle), Destiny or Mia Rose herself, who appeared quite shy and nervous imo. Honestly, put yourself in Incontrol's position and ask what you would have done? Yeah, Incontrol was a little too drunk and douchey but the other hosts pulled a Naniwa and hung him out to dry. | ||

Not anymore. 1) Due to LXP agreement, Naniwa earned a Code S Seed. 2) 2012 had a format change, where GOM had two "code s seed" spots that they were going to use as invites instead of a direct MLG seed like the 2011 season. Due to this format change, Naniwa was supposed to be one of these code s seed invites instead of getting that direct MLG seed 3) Since they were spots they were going to use as invites, they saw yesterday's games and revoked that invitation using the excuse that it's an invitation. | ||

Are we talking "Eh, I'm slightly dissapointed, won't really change my behavior, but I'm not all that happy about it. Oh well."? Or perhaps "I will never support GOMtv ever again."? Or somewhere in the middle? | ||

yep he earned it from MLG Providence, getting 2nd to Leenock who was already in Code S. if gomtv doesn't agree with that, then they need to take it up with MLG and there are much more serious problems afoot. anyway, the reason they lost respect is because they're doing something that isn't optimal for anyone or anything. as far as i can tell, the only explanation for this move is that they've made it personal with naniwa and they just want to hurt him. and unlike naniwa, who made a bad decision when in a situation where it's very difficult to think clearly and have a good perspective, gomtv folks actually took their time responding to this incident, so that they could think perfectly clearly about it and consult people and get a good perspective and make the best move possible. and yet they still do something that's more destructive than constructive, same as naniwa. and i think that falling back on cultural differences is just insulting their critical thinking ability and their competence as international businessmen. that is, if they were competent at their jobs and were able to think like intelligent adults, they would not do non-optimal things for cultural reasons. | ||
