I think rain just bailed and gave gsl no time to get someone to take his spot.

It'd be pretty weird if he doesn't get some punishment from the league.

But then again, if rain decided the drop out of Code S, I doubt he's thinking about coming back in two seasons anyways.

I guess because people who did not attend the ceremony were playing at DreamHack, while Rain was not so he should attend the group selection, even though he planned to forfeit it.

Hmm, that's odd, getting suspended for 2 seasons for just not attending the ceremony.

How strict are they? What if someone has a really valid reason for not attending, such as sickness?

This makes me really confused. Gonna do some research.

It is fair. He just fucked up the Code S group A...
When Idra leaved, there was a mini tourney to take his empty place. They certainly wanted to do it again, but it seems there was too late.

It's not because he didn't attend the GSL, but because he quit the GSL without any prior arrangement with GOMTV.

Considering he just forfeited his Code S spot I don't think he actually cares, why would he do that if he planned on playing in the GSL in the near future given how stupid hard it is to even qualify for code A, much less make it up to Code S?

He texted the gom studio on the day of the group selection that he will not be attending.

Not very professional imo.

If he gave gom some more time to react, then they might have been able to deal with the group a problem a bit better.

Perfectly reasonable. Whether or not he cares Gom is right to take some form of action.

Is this really necessary? He wasn't going to be competing anyway.

It's not neccesary, but I think it's just a warning for people failing to comply with GOM's rules.

It sets a good example I think.

It is necessary, Rain is acting quite un-professional so Gom wants to set an example. GSL is no joke, you can't just let them know 2 days before a the tourney start that you are not gonna be there.
