It was unfair the way people were making assumptions about the whole situation because of wrong translations. So many people were making accusations left and right based off of false information. Also people need to understand the bigger picture as well as different values of other cultures. Everyone is entitled to their own opinion but bashing players, GOM or the korean community is so misplaced. GSL is still the top tournament in terms of professionalism, production and quality. | ||

You remove a player that threw a game, and replace him with a player that throws every placementmatch in mlg? you are kind of going against everything you said concerning naniwa and sportmansship with this, proving you just go against a player. thats called discrimination. you cant even write a set of rules any englishspeaking person can understand. User was temp banned for this post. | ||

...if it wasn't for the MLG exchange program. The way the wording of the program is - as far as it's public - GSL broke their obligations to MLG. This is very unprofessional by Gom and should be cleared up. If I were in Sundance's shoes, I'd be pissed; part of the appeal of his circuit is that it acts (or at least acted for 2011 events, which includes Providence) as qualifier for the most respected league. This damages MLG's reputation quite a bit if this is not cleared up! This whole thing makes me sad, I love the GSL, but something really seems fishy here ![]() | ||

You cant change partnership AFTER the event? that like changing prize money for the event AFTER someone has won the money LOL. | ||

If you actually took the time to read...you would know he wasn`t a lock for Code S spot. He was under consideration and practically a lock until he messed it up. | ||

Be that changing his rules, not putting them on contracts or telling anyone and still having them in effect, and using them arbitrarily instead of consistently. Sad, childish, but all too true.. Sigh.. | ||

Omg from GomTV own site Your Official Announcement Pro Circuit Players Competing in the GSL At MLG Columbus, the Top 3 non-Korean finishers will each be placed into GSL Code A. At every 2011 Pro Circuit Live Competition after MLG Columbus, GSL placement will occur as follows: Code S status will be awarded to the highest placing player, regardless of country of origin, who doesn't already have Code S status. How hard is it to read | ||

GOMTV is cool and all but that was possibly the worst reasoned statement I've ever read in my entire life ! | ||

GOM owns the tournament, they pay for it and decide every aspect of their own tournament. They can change the rules, break them or whatever they want. You on the other hand (person complaining about this), most likely sit on your butt and watch the games from a couch eating Cheetos. What you want is irrelevant. What Naniwa wants is irrelevant. GOM can do whatever they want, and if they don't want a disrespectful punk on their show then all the whining and Cheeto-throwing in the world isn't going to change that. Individuals thinking "waaa it's unfair" seriously need to grow up. There aren't enough consequences for jerks in this world, it should be applauded when someone or something finally grows the balls to enforce some. This exactly. | ||

CoCa wasn't playing a pointless inconsequential showmatch that meant absolutely nothing. Naniwa wasn't fixing a match to help a teammate advance. You're basically accusing Naniwa of match fixing. This is a terrible comparison. | ||

The way you write it's obvious who the "retard" is. I've highlighted tolerating because few are suggesting they tolerate it, merely that the punishment far exceeds the crime. They could have, for instance, made him instantly rematch or taken away his future GSL prize money etc... Also who says we won't watch GOM? I'm still going to watch GOM; I just don't like people being basically bullied. When you're in the position of all the power (as GOM are) you should use restraint and good judgement. Just because you CAN do something doesn't make it right. Who really gains from this situation? GOM could have achieved the same message without completely crushing Naniwa.

MLG put out a press release stating Naniwa obtained a Code S spot from providence. Would really like to hear from GOM or MLG about that. | ||
