Maybe trying to find pros to replace people and all that money takes up all of Brandon's time? Cmon there's no need to make posts like these. Mindless speculation isn't good for anyone. | ||

Also, you are willing to contact Lz for not showing up, yet your response to TQ "not showing up" and asking for an explanation is ignoring him and removing him from your list? | ||

I fucked up big time. Yes I accept the actions that will be taken against me and I agree with the way this is being handled. 100% even with the people who are bashing me. They all have very valid points. At this point there is nothign I can do besides fix the bracket like I did and try to move on. You could address the issue of flat-out ignoring OP's inquiries, after (as the screenshot reveals) reading it. Stress or not, if a player is asking you why he got kicked out of a bracket you tell him, or fix the mistake ASAP. Would he even have been back in the brackets if he never made this thread? Your last posts have said "I ran tournaments, I made a mistake", but not actually anything specific. I realize you will get a lot of whispers, but that's part of it. No organizer in anything will say "Well, I ignored phone calls and e-mails because there were so many!", it's just not enough. If there is too much to handle maybe you shouldn't be doing it on your own. Organizing an event that you can't run isn't anything to brag about, if anything you should see to it that you have enough manpower to run it in one way or another. | ||

There are multiple issues to be addressed here (him supposedly removing everyone from tq from his friends list, other accusations of poor player treatment etc) and further I am interested to see what skullz has to say. To clarify, his event is still listed on the calendar and I haven't taken any action yet. I simply believe there is more to this story that what's been said and I'm not just going to close it because Brandon replied. Plexa, I completely agree. Thanks for the clarification. Hopefully we will all hear from skullz and TQ. I did also hear him apologize, say that it is his fault, and that he will fix it. Anyhow, I'm going to nap till GSL, you're awesome Plexa. | ||

Zerothegreat December 01 2010 17:21 I think everything has come to light of the situation and the thread might derail into a bash on the tournament host (not that he doesn't deserve it) but it might be best to lock/close the thread now. agree. 1. close thread 2. admin organize some sort of inquiry involving the right people into the snafu (if only to determine whether the it deserves a feature on TL) 3. admin (or someone) mediate a discussion between skullz, lz, and brandon to sort out what to do (if it still matters) all other posts are irrelevant. | ||

There are inconsistencies between what Brandon says and what TQSkullz and Lz have said so far pointed out by several posts here.

To TL: I don't think it's fair to bash Brandon to the ground because of this incident, however I also don't think that he should be given a slap on the wrist and let free. The best way to handle this situation from my standpoint is to incorporate a staff to manage your tournaments, and to reply to Plexa's requested information. In my eyes, doing the above-stated actions will exonerate you from anything I can think of. | ||

That was just mean. Because he was in the bracket. I have to talk with my mods and see what exactly happen. He was in the bracket when we started. | ||

I'm reminded of a situation in my life where an employer, after working for them for 6 months, stopped paying me but all the while promised my payment was coming. Naturally I could only take the lies for so long before quitting. After their continued refusal to pay what I was owed I had to hire a lawyer, file paperwork with the state labor people etc etc. only to find that this was not the first time that this company hadn't payed one of their employees. In then end I did get the money I was owed but there were no repurcussions to the company. A man should not have to fight for something that is rightfully theirs. There should be consequences to those that take something of yours willfully or otherwise but the world is what it is. I'm glad to hear the "mistake" was fixed. Doesn't have to be beyond resonance doubt in a civil case, only preponderance of truth hehehehe | ||

That was just mean. How much effort did you exactly put in before switching LZ in? Did you even try to see what the deal is with a no-show in an invite tournament? | ||
