What is to stop this from happening a lot? I mean NASL's schedule is enormous, there are so so many games and with so much else happening for players to also compete in, I hope things like this aren't a common occurrence. You have to admit NASL's task is pretty daunting, making sure that both players can show up to every single one of their matches. Has to be a scheduling nightmare. I'll stay pretty positive about it for now though. The season is gonna be epic :D | ||

July wakes up at 4 am and waits for 4 hours, while Whitera goes to a party and gets drunk. Glad some other TL members aren't running NASL. Easy call. Yup, this makes sense and there is evidence that White-Ra did indeed attend the after party. | ||

If you're not accountable, you don't deserve to play in the NASL. Sjow was able to make accommodations, so clearly it isn't in the realm of impossibility. They made the right choice, sucks that July had to wake up at 4 am and couldn't even play, and if I was in that situation I would have taken the walkover as well. Edit: NASL was already being lenient, extending the grace period from 45 minutes to 4 hours. That's more than enough leniency for such a demanding schedule. I am not commenting on the forfeit. I think that was correct decision. Also to make it clear I am not talking about rescheduling when they were waiting for White-ra, at that point forfeit was correct decision. I am talking about rescheduling it few days beforehand (that of course assumes they knew about the conflict beforehand, if they did not then I have no problem), which should not be a problem. EDIT:also 45 min grace period ended at the time when White-ra just finished playing DH finals. They extended not as courtesy, but because they knew that to be the case. That is why I am talking it was poor scheduling if they were informed about his DH attendance. | ||

Sure group a b c etc wouldnt play in order but as long as the there wasnt a day without casts it wouldnt matter. Honestly now i really dont want to watch todays cast im tired and really only wanted to see that match up. I might pop on to see the moman game and maybe the sjow game but idk now. | ||

Poor White Ra inconvenienced everyone and made Julyzerg wait 4 hours. Poor him. Yes pitying him is strange. But the rest of your post makes so many assumptions. How do you know he ignored communications and not just missed them ? Also he actually had no chance to make the match on time as when the match was scheduled to start he was still playing MC. Maybe he assumed that since he missed the proper start of the match he forfeited and just went to the afterparty. Who knows... | ||

Your post doesn't have a source. It could be White-ra went and got drunk and forgot about the match. It could be he didn't think he could get to the match anyway so he went to the party before getting on a plane. We don't know any details except for anecdotes. | ||

In any case, if Whitera gets drunk and forgets about a game ... That's his own fault, isn't it? | ||

In that case it would be his own fault. But since there hasn't been any confirmation on when he told NASL or why he possibly went to the party, I would reserve judgement until I had that information. | ||
