right he is sure they will find a better solution but as far as we know, morrow is still banned from the next 3 events. until we get confirmation saying otherwise, that is the status quo. | ||

I had to hunt down people left and right for the ITL Grand Prix replays. Only KawaiiRice sent replays without being asked 400 times. | ||

This entire thread has demonstrated that the majority of community members posting in it are much more interested in rabble-rousing and tossing vitriol at various groups and individuals than providing any realistic solutions. Sadly, that's a reflection of the internet in general, but certain elements of TL didn't used to be quite so vile during the beta. Such a shame. | ||

for example, casters could take turns casting games if they are causing problems. if the games are bigs, like the finals or semi-finals, take turns casting finals and have the whole deal arbitrated by someone. or flip coins. or pick official casters. whatever. | ||

You want people to support ESL, make sure they are the only ones casting. And the rule should be: at first sign of slowing down the game, the observer will be kicked. Remember the match is more important than the cast. Without the match their can be no cast anyways. You shouldn't ruin matches so Bob can try to get e-famous by casting your tournament. (Bob is not a known caster or a reference to any casters, it just a name filler for the examples sake) | ||

I wouldn't judge the majority of TL based on this thread. That's a bit drastic, some topics simply attract a.. vocal minority. | ||

It was essentially troubles with players not sending replays, losing replays etcetc. It's a wonder the tournament worked out in the end. WhiteRa lost some replay because he threw his computer in a swimming pool IIRC? | ||

WhiteRa lost some replay because he threw his computer in a swimming pool IIRC? Yeah you remember correctly, I lol'd so hard. Seriously it took an average of asking 4 times to get every non-KawaiiRice replay for the ITL Grand Prix, and some only arrived minutes before they were cast. Some players never actually sent them, but I got them from the other player. Seriously it's a widespread and rampant problem. | ||
