I can't believe I'm sad about having to miss MLG under these circumstances, but I am. :| | ||

Just think about it: What would be the end result if IdrA was available for all slots? He has the largest active following(*1) and thus the most votes whenever he is up to be voted on. Would that make "all IdrA games" a good schedule? Not really, because choice / variation is also a good thing to have. Going always with the top vote only is kinda like the british electoral system, where the guy with the most votes gets the seat in parliament and all the votes for other people dont count towards anything anymore (and thus their opinion isnt really represented in parliament). (*1) No idea if that is true, but lets pretend it is anyways ... | ||

That is called democracy. It has only been used for thousands of years by most every prominent civilization. If you have a better idea, I would be glad to hear it. Idra may have a huge following but so do all the players. It's no one's fault but the fans, if they don't support their favorite players by voting. | ||

Some players have no bolded matches while others have multiples, some players aren't even listed as an option in the votes(some who I'd like to see on the main stage). Why are players in the championship bracket not getting at least some slight equal representation on the main stage, or perhaps it'll even itself out over the course of the event. This largely happened last time too where I ended up seeing a bunch of games I sort of wasn't too keen on and missed a ton of games I would have wanted to see on the main stage. Just wondering why it seems some players get snubbed off the main stage... | ||

Luckily there is a 4 day vacation period from Thursday to Sunday. I have to watch every game. I will have to watch every game. | ||

They chose to show matches that will likely attract the most viewers. | ||

Eh, then I still have to question the decision of main stage selections... No Kiwikaki games defaulted... inControl vs Machine defaulted... Haypro vs Losira defaulted... I can't see that being anything other than a steamroll for Losira. I dunno. | ||
