not necc, someone can beat the defending champ in a game but not advance from groups e.g. a 0-4 guy beats a 4-0 guy

Someone could lose the last game in a group against someone who is already out or something I guess

Yup, because it is group play and not single elim or double elim. It depends on the last set of matches. Whoever is holding the title can lose to someone who does not end up making top 3. That person will carry the title until his next LAN.

Using the transitive property like this means that everyone is world nr 1. Like in chess, I once beat someone who then later beat a top English player etc. Guess I'm nr 1. Step aside Magnus Carlsen!

That question has been asked several times. If someone retires while having the unofficial world champion title, he will become the first SC2 bonwja and we'll continue the unofficial world champion list by backtracking to the last active holder of the title!

No, you'd have to give the title to the winner of WCS or something.

hm, or would demuslim get the title back and further on give it to the player he loses next to?

Yes that was what I meant with my semi-cryptic backtracking. In this case we'd backtrack to Demuslim and give him the title on account of him being the previous holder (although the title will probably bounce around a couple of times during this IEM :o).

That would be the official world champion and I've seen several responses similar to mine. Anyway it doesn't really matter too too much how we resume the list in such a scenario (assuming we stay consistent in how we do it), because it's just a for fun list.
