EPTMistakes happen. But trying to gloss over a mistake without a proper explanation will not help people trust you. Answer that question and hopefully everything will be roses again.

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. Heh you're not very good at being slick, although I guess you are putting in your best effort. It's pretty clear that Plexa is asking you to address the other allegations of misconduct which you are ignoring by stating that you've been successful in the past, and your attempt at apologetic humility isn't really convincing to anyone. I think in the eyes of the community here, you are guilty until you presume yourself innocent from the complaints. So... can you please go through the allegations if you want to clear your name? Starting with why you would try to remove skullz from your friends list or why you ignored that player who you kicked from the game without explaining your reasoning for its postponement (or even the postponement itself). Because from a business perspective, you're obviously trying to keep your tournament with as much publicity and views as possible, and being featured on TL is a huge part of that. And as a TL member I would hate to see mishandled tournaments featured and would hesitate to click on tournaments as a whole if they were, which means featuring such a tournament would be a detriment to the site itself. | ||

Locking the post and stating the course of action that Admins are planning to take might be wise. | ||

The semantic turn you just took is absurdly incorrect , lol , as I ALREADY USED THAT TERM LIKE 3 PAGES BACK . On a side Note I think a comic could get endless human behavior material at these forum type sites . The type of responses I see here never cease to amaze me . Please do not stop however, if you were to stop this type of nonsensicality , where would I get my daily explosion of sympathetic laughter . Just stop. One of the two of us has passed the bar and is a corporate lawyer, and actually knows what they are talking about. You, on the other hand, made rambling arguments that completely missed the point of my critique of your semantics and then hilariously bad mannered me in a way that's liable to get you warned. So yeah, I'm not going to waste my time discussing this further or sidetrack the thread. | ||

eventhough he hasn't the best personality in my eyes I think he can continue what he was doing, for the sake of esports. | ||

he isn't doing anything wrong at all and nobody bothered to ask themselves what would brandon gain from deliberately doing all of this..? I feel people are just trying to stir up drama, not really wanting this situation to be fixed | ||

Well its good to hear that the tourney runner responded, however I agree with most not leaving a paper trail as a runner leaves a lot of questions for players and viewers alike. The good that came out of this is that Lz truly is a baller for offering to give up his spot and that Tqskullz helped point out things to avoid if one plans to run a tourney in the future. Also love the TL team for upholding standards ^_^ | ||

I was simply there to cover incase of a no show and I believe I mixed the players up when changing the bracket. Like I said I have to talk with the mods as well. I was stressed out tonight cuz comcast going down, response having to leave early and having a couple no shows. Be sure to update us with what your mods said (I thought you were running this alone?) | ||

Answer why you ignored a player in your tournament when he was specifically asking about his removal. Mistakes happen. But trying to gloss over a mistake without a proper explanation will not help people trust you. Answer that question and hopefully everything will be roses again. If it was a mistake, he might actually not know why he did it. He may not have realized what he was doing. Sometimes I answer my wife and later realize I don't even know what she said: especially while playing Starcraft2...sorry honey  | ||

I have to chekc with Zoia about the chat logs and see exactly what was going on. Uh dude, the screenshot of you specifically ignoring your player occurred in the chat of the Starcraft II game client. Something tells me that's not going to appear in your stream chat. | ||

The only relevant people here now are people with legitimate information. Here's what I'm going to do 1) I would like to hear from brandon about the other allegations, once he clarifies this I will.. 2) Lock the thread 3) PM skullz about what's gone on and see what he has to say about it, reopening the thread is there is still an issue 4) PM brandon to send me the information once he gets it from his mods, which I will post in this thread as an update 5) If anyone has an relevant information to this please PM me and we can go from there | ||
