Someone's taking this tournament (which is for fun, not a premier event) a little too seriously.. Same thoughts, couldn't believe that this was just a plain win, after beeing absent for a few minutes of the stream. | ||

It doesn't make you BM but geeh, 2 - 0 in a BO5 .. Why not accept that and look like a "hero"? It absolutely makes it look like BM. He was on camera screaming like a child and refusing any sort of middle ground solution. We've seen comebacks in games before, why not in this one? Anything can happen. | ||

That is what is really bothering me, it is like people have forgotten that this shit really cant happen in the other big esport titles(Lan, resume from replay etc), it is just because Blizzard is hamstringing the esports scene with their DRM and piss poor UI this even happened. I guess people gave up blaming Blizzard after the first big incidents of this happening since apparently they cant solve it in a timely manner. | ||

Been said previously on this page, it's not the disconnect that is causing the majority of the drama, it's XlorD's behavior following the disconnect, disconnects has happened before so often that there is ways you deal with it now. | ||

Yes, and that is stupid, the focus should not be on XlorD at all, even though I think what he did was normal - Athletes in other sports constantly challange the refs calls and if the tournament is run properly the players would have no say in it. The fact that people are on XlorDs back for wanting & pushing for the best outcome for him is pretty silly. | ||

They bitch, whine and moan at every little opportunity, be it emailing sponsors for minor stuff, witchhunting players who said something stupid or denouncing the work others put up for the community.. TBH I do not think that decision makers around the esports scene should care about reddit even one bit, they will whine regardless... To be completely honest, there's very little difference between Reddit and the TL forums. Both are kneejerk, witch-hunting, bandwagoning communities. | ||

There is actually 0 way of dealing with a disconnect. Since you can't wait it out forever and there's no resuming from a particular point. You either hand out a win or loss or you rematch. None of those three are going to play the game in the exact same way and the players will not have the exact same thoughts going through the game. Even rematching the game can play out completely differently. All blame should go to blizzard. | ||

The default result of a disconnect is a remake, and the exception is to give the win to a player. This seems like the other way around. Everyone is discussing this from the standpoint that giving the default is giving the win to the leading player and remaking is the exception. Very cool and muture of Stephano to stop the discussion and just going to the next game. A perfect example of a player who is confident in himself, and he just want to play the game. XlorD however seem like he is afraid of playing agianst Stephano and just wanted a win. I dont think the lead was big enough for them to decide for a remake, anyho.. done is done. Lets move on and hope that Alexander Garfield puts his dick back in his pants before this grows out of proportions. | ||
