"Because of MLG and GSL overlapping by a day, the champion DongRaeGu couldn’t attend, will you let other players form a new group (T/N: not sure if this is what it means tbh) or change their order of play?
He didn’t attend? It hasn’t even begun yet… ha. Last year, we accommodated the players completely. If I want to be really clear-cut about this, players should have to choose between tournaments. If the schedule overlaps, they just have to decide which one to attend. That’s how life is. Not changing the schedule should be the norm but the public expects us to accommodate the players now after we did it a few times. We have a set schedule, the groups are set but if the order changes, and everything has to change. There wasn’t a situation in starcraft 1 where the champion couldn’t participate after winning one season. So, I’m still not sure whether to change the schedule this season or not. We’re looking for a way but we have to have room to be able to accommodate these. We can’t make sacrifices just to suit a player’s schedule so if we can, we will. I just want people to know that this is not the norm."

It's an interesting point of view, doing what you can to accomodate players and fans should be the norm imo.

Nice interview, thx for the translation

I really thought his answer in regards to the 'experimental map' portion was incredibly ignorant.

Sort of. They shouldn't do it to a point when they are hurting themselves. Rescheduling tournament because some players decided to play elsewhere is problematic.

Okay Mr. Chae, this Christmas I will give out one ladder win as a gift to the first person I meet.

Let's hope I remember this.

Ah, there was also this incident. Last Christmas, I asked my opponent “it’s Christmas and you’re playing games at home?” and gave the game away by leaving after saying “Christmas present for you”. Now, I look back and realise we were both in the same situation so what the hell was I doing?

Probably important to set boundaries.

Is it nice for them to do so? Yea. Are they obliged to? Nope.

The problem is once you start doing that you either have to do it for everyone and your own schedule means nothing anymore or you do certain people and people will start blaming you for bias.
Is it not their work to be secretary of and keep agenda's of every single player.

Thanks for translating! He seems like a funny guy and insightful about the game as well. I think I'm going to steal his idea about writing down everyone's name that cheeses him, that's hilarious. Why get mad when you can get even?
