Can't help feeling like it was just because Lz is "known" - nothing against him cos its obv not his fault, sure he knew nothing about this. Still not only his actions but the way he handled it was extremely unprofessional. | ||

They also need to know that the prize money is given fairly to whomever performs better. If they can be dropped apart from the rules, then the tournament is completely fake, and the competition is completely invalid. | ||

This guy messed up and did a horrible job organizing his tourney, He didnt commit murder. The OP even states that when brandon asked him if he ever got to play his game, that the OP DID NOT RESPOND! that right there is grounds for removal from the tourney. brandon should be scolded and warned, but anything beyond that is ridiculous. | ||

Ngry talked to him a little later and he did give Ngry the walkover but yeah guess he just decided to switch him out for another for whatever reason. Hopefully he resolves this or something ^^ Yea, I think this kinda proves to be what everyone already assumed. LZGamer didn't show up for the Ro64 vs his opponent NGry. Now what should have happened, if LZGamer had a good reason for not making it to ask NGry if he would play LZGamer and let NGry decide to take the Bye or not. But, instead Brandon just replaces a guy he probably thought was disposable. He made a very poor decision and should have kept everything in fair play. Especially when money is on the line. | ||

I hope somehow this isn't true because I enjoy the tournament, but I don't really want to watch tournaments that drop people. It is definitely a legal issue when money is on the line. Anytime prize money is offered the people offering it are responsible to their government's laws about honest and fair practices. Mods can see a list of people who are "active" on TL... and Plexa's said that he was active on TL so should have gotten the PM already. | ||

Thanks for pointing that out. Just because he is active doesn't prove he will have received a message, but hopefully he will see it before he goes to sleep! I know that sometimes I just leave my computer on. Obviously I think this is a pretty bad situation, but if I have to I will start defending him because he does deserve not to be quickly judged. | ||

I think your sequence of events is a tad bit warped here . Um first of all he didn't respond the first day (R64) and was advanced in the field regardless as his opponent did not show . The problem with the OP happened the following day AFTER he was advanced through the brackets into the Round of 32 . So let me get this straight , I am still painfully attempting to follow your thought process . From what I can gather your point is ; " he could have been booted the day before , therefor he is justified in mistreating him the following day ." Please clarify , becuase this makes absolutely no sense to me . | ||

I am sure running a tournament is an enormous headache, but even watching this one being cast was an absolute travesty and there should be no reason as to why it is on featured team liquid. Its crazy how many top players were training all day for this tournament and how poorly it was ran from organization to the actual live stream of matches. | ||
