Was really looking forward to Tastosis. However, good damage control by IPL, it really blows that something outside your control can become disproportionally big.

as much as it is huge for something like that to fail, IPL is awesome, you guys will live through this pretty easily imo. lots of respect for being straight up about it and apologizing, admitting the mistakes made and what you plan to do to prevent them in the future. gl hf, and gg's. keep doin what you do best

Honestly speaking, The organizer of PPSL wasn't prepared for this. I mean, his plans were not solid, and IPL having no contact with PPSL, I mean, man. I feel guilty myself because I live in this country, actually I was there on the event itself, it was horrible, first game on booth was supposed to be Naniwa vs Sen, and waited for 5-6 hours. It was epic though tbh. I think we are not ready yet for big events such as Pacific Qualifiers. Need some preparations. I think in the future it will be alright though (If there will be a next time). We got great sponsors though that's for sure. It's just the event itself. Also about YoonYJ's flight. It was cancelled man, just terrible.
If life gets you down, QQ.

Wow IGN really stepping it up and showing they care. Really, really solid PR. After IPL3 kicked total ass and now this, I might have to buy another membership/pass/whatever they call it.

Wow not even Blizzard is this nice to us.

I don't think an apology was even completely necessary I mean totally not directly your fault anyway. Still, awesome form with taking responsibility and keeping the community close.

So are you going to investigate what happened with YoonYJ further? I mean as it stands if they never lacked for funding to send players it would seem the event organizer clearly lied and used that money to send his own player instead.

Sickness is currently leading his group, can he qualify for IPL 4 even though he was wrongly given a qualified players spot by the admin? I mean it's hardly his fault but it's all really messed up now

If PPSL or whatever decides to keep the tournament running, will Tastosis still cast? The level of players is there, the best casters are there so production isn't really that big of a concern for me personally.

All the positive feedback from this thread just proves that people would rather see organizers admit their faults and speak up, rather than doing shit like:

This is ridiculous. It's more than 2 hours late now. I went in line for a VIP pass but was told they don't sell them for today anymore and they were only by reservation. I asked if I could still get a reservation for a VIP pass for tomorrow, and the person at the ticket counter said she didn't know. Huh?? +_+ Then I asked if I could get a regular pass anyway (a non-VIP one), and she said they're still not giving them away at the time. WTF, that was already at 11:40am... 1 hour and 40 minutes after the event was supposed to start, and they're still not letting people in? I don't know what the hell is happening here anymore. I was excited to see all the players at first, but now I'm just pissed.

Now I'm just chilling out in a net cafe nearby cause I came here alone and I don't know what to do anymore while waiting. =/


i think your complaints would have more impact elsewhere (not sure where). i'd be upset if i were you too.


Well, I did post my concerns on the organizer's facebook page. They deleted it.

I feel like by this time they don't even care anymore.


Where did you post your feedback that got deleted? I am sorry this happened, this should never happen and I will talk to whoever runs the page.


I posted in the PhilippinePROstarcraftleague's facebook page. It's okay, I didn't post in the IPL page, since I figured you guys weren't organizing this directly. It's just pretty frustrating to not know what's going on or how I can even get tickets (even after I asked at the ticket counter!) and seeing that even some of the organizers on location don't know what's happening.


Thanks very much for your feedback, I understand your frustrations. I will make sure that their highest levels of management receives your feedback.

Sorry for your troubles!

And it's ridiculous how IGN was the one updating the community when they weren't even on the ground:

Most recent word from the venue: They are working with their ISP, Globe Intercom, to restore full service to the location and will be back when it is restored.

^ That was actually the only update we saw for over 9 hours of disaster.

It's a really sad thing to happen to IPL and the player(s?) who got screwed. IPL is such a great organization but they were dragged by AZKwitchdoc into this horribly run tournament. Going from the best production value (IGN) to the worst production as of yet (PPSL lol) is a really horrible thing to see.

Come on now. Please don't tarnish IPL's image. They've worked so hard to be one of the best SC2 esports organization around. Thanks IGN for the response!

It looks like IPL is throwing the PPSL under the bus. I would have liked to see a response that helps the scene there instead of just removing the IPL name from it.


What would you like them to do? Maybe give some suggestions? They seem very receptive to community feedback if you're still upset.

It wasn't cancelled. There was no flight to begin with. Dox ran a tournament in AUS on behalf of PPSL, where the top two would join. Targa couldn't make it, so they should have brought in YoonYJ as promised. Except they didn't even buy his ticket or plan to bring him in the first place. They underhandedly gave his spot to a new member of their team, AZKSickness, who they just picked up very recently.

Even though we will miss a lot of content, it's great that IPL is taking responsibility with fixing these issues.
