I meant to say I set up matches with Naniwa several times with Root players and he never showed once. Not you. Sorry for the confusion. | ||

sure you might argue that the ESL admins should help the players who arent speaking german with a translation fo the rules, but then again, the admins have ALOT to do and its a german EPS, so i can understand that they dont think that this is their job. in my opinion it is the job of MYM to translate the rules for their players and if they dont do that, its not the fault of the ESL admins. | ||

Regarding bm, I think it's pretty clear that he's just an immature douchebag with a hot temper and attracted to conflict. That's his choice, who cares. Though I think it would be good if organizers of events posted in the rules that you're not allowed to be bad manner. If they don't, then that's their choice as well... | ||

Its absolutely not a big deal to obey to rules, as can be seen by quite a few people having none or very few PPs. Almost all the penalty points that were given to naniwa are because he forgot things or was organized very bad. his teammate, cloud, cannot speak english either and is in the same situation as he is, yet he only accumulated 5 PPs, of which he got most at the start for some smallish things. After that he learned from it and didnt get any more. While i agree alot of his PP's came because he just, didn't do as he should, some of the PP's that people get are totally unwarranted. For example - you're saying people should be organised well and such? i got PP's for having too early statements ... Which, let's be fair is abit silly - even to the point where i had a tournament the week and i couldn't postpone it to 1 day out of the play week, i think little exceptions should be made, or atleast thought about for future seasons as, while yes - people who are unorganised or specifically try and make the admins' jobs harder do deserve them, others with pp's like my own, i don't really think i deserved them. | ||

Usually a regame happens when the player with the advantage drops, not the other way around. Your pc crashed and miou had the advantage or it was even at best. The rules clearly say that if someone crashes he gets a loss unless he had a big advantage which you didn't have. Giving a regame is totally miou's decision there. As an admin you have to give him the win or let him decide because YOU crashed. Rules are rules and this is the best possible rule you can make out of the crash issue. If there is an auto-regame rule in place people could abuse it. Other than that I have to agree, some PPs are not deservered and seem very petty. In Naniwa's case it was absolutely the correct decision though. | ||

I had 50 scvs, he had 48 (despite being 3 base, it was only just up) - my army was actually superior to his, he only had 4 tanks, 8 marines some marauders and 2 ground vikings adding up to 22 units in total in his army. I had 2 groups of 23 units each consisting of MMM + 1 (almost 2 tanks) from 2 sides. I would have used scvs which, since the patch soak up tank shots like wildfire - i would have lost roughly 15-18 supply, with him losing his total army, putting me ahead by far (while being on equal harvester count) - with an island expo he can't defend and no army, he would have then lost that island base, along with 25 scvs - making me have double the economy, while he is still rebuilding his force (and he would no longer be ahead in tanks, due to me now building them). With those events set in place, i was in the lead sir, no matter how you look at it, that fight was certainly a bad one for him and is definitely the mistake he needed to make coming to that position in order for me to win the game. @darkforce, i only knew myself the details 1 week before hand, i told the admins 3 weeks previous that i might be away during the middle/late middle of the month and if there's anything i can do while keeping it confidential (blizzard want it confidential) - it wasn't as if i didn't give any warning, it's just the 2 weeks notice for PP, given i only had the flights confirmed very shortly before it didn't really give me any other choice, and with the game not being allowed outside of the play week - even though i did give the 3 weeks warning beforehand that i might not be around for 2 matchs (i did manage to postpone the miou match by 1 day - but i didn't realise the flights would also collide with my Inuh game) it wasn't really my fault. So while i couldn't set any solid date, as i didn't have any dates myself - i did do what i could with the little info i had, and i still think it was kinda harsh to award me with the PP's anyhow. | ||

He was under a NDA. ESL definitely should have been more flexible in this situation. If Demuslim told it earlier everyone would have known he goes to Blizzcon. And after watching Demuslims Game I am pretty sure the fight would have been a catastrophe for Miou but I can't blame ESL on their decision as they need to have that rule to prevent abuse. The majority of top players would have decided to give a regame though. | ||

Nevertheless, I don't see any wiggling room for an admin other than let Miou decide in this situation. It was an unfortunate incident but I think the ESL can't be blamed this time. | ||

But then his profile says "3 Minor Penalty" but the rules state that the violation is worth 6 pp. Or did he miss an ESL TV match (no iFNG)? Because then I dont understand why they would state "(Wildcard 2-Wochen-Frist)" (Wildcard 2 week period), because the rules say ESL TV matches only have a 48hour deadline (and 3 penalty points). Really really fishy ruleset. | ||

It is not like you get kicked out of the EPS for missing to upload 1 or 2 replays or make a match statement to early or to late. BUT if u manage to collect so many PPs that it equals 30% pricemoney you did lots of stuff wrong. I feel sad for Naniwa because he is a strong player and with some better support he would still play in the EPS with good chance to attend the finals and win a nice pot of money. And i feel sad for the Fans and the players, because now shit just got mixed up and the League is a lot weaker without the swedish Protoss. | ||

May I ask where the rules state that you need to have a reason for postponing a match? | ||
