I figured it was the same for Eu but obviously not. Look @Mana. How many times in NASL did he had the drop counter pop up? | ||

We have the same numbers as Motbob, basically. (Didn't check them all, but I also had Morrow vs Ace, and Morrow on +7). Would like some clarification. | ||

I feel that there are alot of hypocrisy from the side of NASL. I've repeatedly heard them saying that they want as many top European players as possible playing in NASL.The whole league obviously needs Euro and Korea pros to play in the league because without them the league would be pretty uninteresting if we're going to be completely honest here. Despite this they make no effort in accommodating the European and Korean players. And this is worst for Euro players because of the bnet server being located at the west coast on the NA side. Euro players have, by far, the worst playing conditions in NASL and the leadership behind NASL doesn't seem to care. I really question the professionally of the people behind NASL if we don't see big changes for season 2. | ||

Morrow 2-0 Rainbow +2 Morrow 2-1 TLO +3 Morrow 0-2 Kiwikaki +1 Morrow 2-1 Moon +2 Morrow 2-0 Vibe +4 Morrow 2-0 Artosis +6 Morrow 2-1 Fenix +7 Morrow 2-1 Grubby +8 Morrow 1-2 Sheth +7 So Morrow should be playing a tiebreaker against Ace...

Wait, so did the NASL actually make a mistake there? Or is there a mistake in the reported results? | ||

If it's just regular season matches I don't see the big deal. It will only help the league. Same. I don't see Blizzard fixing Battle.net anytime soon, so casting from replays seems to be the best option. | ||

There's no one in charge, no one that cares about the quality. The standings on the NASL website have been incorrect since week one. It's been pointed out here on the forums and in private emails/PMs. NASL ignored all this. Now the players have likely played the wrong matchups. | ||

(1) several players voluntarily chose to not play their tiebreak games (2) there was an update on our website that messed with results, so we did make 1-2 accounting errors, although again these errors are just for seeding and didn't have any larger impact (I.E. relegating someone) Now, about playing conditions for Europeans... NASL games are played at 21 CET each day. I tried to schedule everyone in as favorable of a time as possible. Sometimes it wasn't possible (I.E. a European playing in Match 5 plays at 1am or so). We had to choose a time that was good for the largest amount of people. The time period we chose is reasonable for Americans and Europeans, so we did it. PS... the playoff schedule will be announced after tiebreak tuesday! | ||

I'm guessing everyone listed is playing tonight. However, several of the top 10 opted out of playing a tie-break such as July/Sheth/Squirtle as Boxer/Strelok in addition to Morrow/Ace in the playoffs. Could easily be more that I didn't see. Edit: Realized Morrow/Ace not having a tiebreak invalidated my statement that all payoff tiebreaks were being played so removed that part. | ||

May be others I haven't seen though it looks like all the playoff tiebreaks are going through. Oh that makes a ton of sense. Thanks. | ||

Now the players have likely played the wrong matchups. I'd say the thought of 'no one cares about the quality' is completely bogus. Clearly they think about the quality as they setup the league, many of which did it because this is their passion. Now, whether or not they act intelligently, make the right decisions, or are organized is another story, but I think its pretty clear people care. | ||

Wouldn't it be possible to still have a tie with a round robin? Not sure about the OSL rules for it. Since they have to pre-schedule everyone's time I think anything that risks a further tie would be a non-starter. | ||
