"Coca lets a series go to the third game and loses; SlayerS punishes him for not trying to win 2nd game against his friend." The "man" here is SlayerS, unfortunately, trying to bring down Coca. But oh well. He had to have expected some kind of punishment after the series. Obviously not clarified enough if there's a few people posting every other page implying that they did it for Byun to get a code A spot. (that or people just don't read and assume things too much lol) | ||

This was not a showmatch with 0 money on the line This was a match that could potentially lead to Byun winning a code A spot (Provided that one was given to the winner of the tournament and that he won) It doesn't matter if the match itself didn't grant a code A spot, this is definitely not something to just overlook | ||

Boxer decided he should be banned from playing in tourneys temporarily and I agree to his decision as a fan. And do not compare this to corrupt American sports scene. I gave up hope after OJ Simpson. Both have nothing to do with the sports itself more like failed American legal system. This incident is more like a NFL team has a losing record with no hope of reaching the playoff, with few games left they tank the game trying to get a first draft pick. Savior is like the baseball black sox scandal which they were banned for life. | ||

Or maybe the punishment is an overreaction and we should all hold hands and sing kumbaya. I'm down for thinking rationally and kumbaya over ruining a talented 17 year old's career with a crazy overreaction anyday. | ||

Surely he was doing something nice for his friend, right? That's gaining something for himself. What if I fixed a match as a third party so that an enemy of mine automatically lost, but all I gained was the satisfaction of that man's misery? (Such a thing doesn't even have to be premeditated necessarily, either.) Still match-fixing, but I didn't profit economically from it. He didn't do it to the extent that Savior did, but throwing the game was match-fixing, by definition. And everyone else who worked hard in that tournament gets screwed over by playing fairly and not getting free wins. It doesn't matter if it was a spur of the moment decision or not; he still cheated. And it doesn't matter if he makes money off the decision or not; he still broke the tournament rules by making sure that one player progressed when he shouldn't have. That's match-fixing (specifically by throwing his own game). Ironically in this case it's more like honest activity, given that they blared it out on the chat. More seriously, how is this different from simply not showing up? What is the additional cost to the tournament or the fans of showing up and then losing? What if you 6-pool, and then feel so bad about it you decide to 15-hatch next game even if you knew you could win by rushing again? What if you realize that the other player is that much better than you and a-click your workers? The only difference is that they were dumb enough to say it out loud. | ||

People who don't think it's a big deal compares it to the guy who threw 2 games to White-Ra. But it looks like none of you are right. | ||

The first two comments were in regard to Game 1, where they were just bantering in English. After what happened in the 2nd game, we were more confused than anything else. | ||

It doesn't matter if the match ITSELF didn't grant a code A spot, it still granted a chance to obtain one | ||
