Why is Dreamhack above criticism? The show has a constant theme of telling tournaments to get their act together.

I guess you can listen to the kickass podcast put together by the top European players then, huh.

Why do Europeans think they are better? America saved them in world war 1 and world war 2. The best thing they ever did was spawn the Nazis and hitler. Europeans are fags that drink tea and complain.

Sure critisism is good. But how is telling a organisation that they should have invited you instead of another player critisism?? Why does Painuser think he is so good?

The 15 invited players were:

01. Duckload.White-Ra (P)
02. mTw DIMAGA (Z)
03. Mouz MorroW (Z/T)
04. TLAF-Liquid TheLittleOne (T/Z)
05. TLAF-Liquid Tyler(aka Nony) (P)
06. RoX.KIS.BRAT_OK(T)
07. Fnatic Fenix (T)
08. aTn Socke (P)
09. Dignitas Sjow (T)
10. EG IdrA (Z)
11. Mouz Naama (T)
12. RAGE Tarson (T)
13. fnatic Lucifron (T)
14. mTw DeMusliM (T)
15. SK MaDFroG (Z)

Now why would Painuser knock ANY of those of that list? He has really overestimated himself if he think he is as big of a name as any of these players. And to actually go on air and say "DREAMHACK IS WRONG" you dont do that if you think you deserve to be in there by a SMALL margin. He has to think that he deserves to be on that list by a LARGE margin and that he has proven that to dreamhack.

Complete bullshit from this Painuser guy.

Also if you think you deserve a invite but you didnt get it, you dont go on air on some show and shit on the event for that reason and question their intelligence. You enter the fucking tournament and you earn your invite for next year. But the guy is too much of a smock to enter the tournament without a VIP seat.... LOL loser.

he was complaining more about the handling of the situation, not solely that he didnt get an invite. but given his skill and mlg performances he certainly deserves an invite over madfrog and lucifron at the least.

also shut the fuck up, flying from the usa to sweden to play a qualifier and then bo1 groups is a huge risk for anyone, regardless of skill.

Yea but the point of inviting is not to figure out who's the best player and inviting them. If that was clear then there wouldn't be much point in actually playing. Dreamhack invites who they think will bring excitement, hype and legitimation to the event, not only who they think is best. I think they much prefer to invite magfrog over painuser because he brings more viewers to the event for obvious reasons.

Also painuser just popped up with a good placement at MLG. I also think that event organizers are doing the right thing in inviting established top players even from past games that are also playing Star 2 rather then someone that could very possibly be just a fluke.

Id like to say to Painuser: Keep pulling these nice results month after month up until the next dreamhack and im sure they will consider you when they are handling their invites. Until then and with the current situation they have no reason to even consider Painuser?! Even if there were a ton more invites to Dreamhack id be supriced if Painuser was one of them.

Also Im not saying anything about him declining to travel very far to play a event that he can be eliminated from with one bad game. Thats very understandable.

Im just saying he should not bring that up on air. I dont think players should try to influence who the tournaments wants to seed and invite. If you get invited that should be an honor and its not something you should ask for unless you are pretty sure that they must have overlooked you.
The reason that i'm reacting the way I am and making these posts is that I'm assuming because he brought it op on the air that he thinks that they must have really overlooked him and I just cant see how his results could speak that much for him to consider him "overlooked".

not comparable. evryone can adapt in the same way in those sports. in starcraft this only would be true if either the maps all are perfectly balanced or evryone plays the same race.

Who the fuck did I flame? And what europeans would you like me to know more about?

Before you start to seriously answer these questions you might want to consider removing the stick from your ass. Taking SOTG this serious means you ain't understanding the internet so good yet.

Just to make this clear. Are you using State of the Game podcasts as your personal flaming/trolling/annoyingrandompeople -platform? That is what you seem to be saying in this post. As it didn't start as such, I am sorry the show has gone down that road after a good start to the podcast series. And yes both you and PainUser show a really big dose of what I call America-Centrisism which is totally understandable in Americans. You don't have experience of how things could be better.
