If Comm told each of his opponents beforehand, then it think it would be fine since there's really no difference with who's account you play on. On the other hand, if Comm didn't tell them, then he has a distinct advantage. Players play differently depending on their opponent, especially since Comm is fairly popular and a lot of pros knows his style. In this case, I would leave it up to the players that Comm knocked out to decide if he should be DQed. Caliber came into the thread and said he had no idea who the guy was and suspected he was Comm after he got 2-0d by him because he said the guy was really good http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=408680¤tpage=101#2001 | ||

He just said the guy was good and thought it was Comm and corrected us on saying that it was a zerg since whoever did liquipedia had fruitsbasket listed as a protoss. (fruitsbasket is always a zerg though if you look up his bnet profile so idk why he was listed as protoss. it's not like opponents would be tricked into thinking they were facing a protoss or anything) | ||

At the same time, I hope MLG can find a way to reinstate him as an exception. I know that China has a very large and very passionate sc2 community, but they've only got a small handful of players that could possibly win the qualifiers. Comm being able to play would make the WCS so much better. | ||

If FruitsBaskets were to have asked the MLG admins if he could give his seed to Comm instead, they might have okay'd it and he would still be in. But since they didn't even say anything to either the players he played against or the staff, he deserved the dq. Maybe comm doesn't speak english.. | ||

Not MLG or Blizzards fault. If they can't read the rules, then they need to say something and get help. | ||

I don't know how MLG is supposed to fix that problem. They can't teach people to read a language just to make sure they understand the rules. | ||

As an overall, I am just not happy with how the NA WCS has been handled so far. | ||

This is an American (North and South) tournament, so they should be written in the most common languages in that region (English and Spanish. Maybe Portuguese and French) | ||

but mlg's inexperience/mishandling of a non-NA exclusive tournament isn't that surprising. they had little time to prepare and organize. this does make blizzard's lack of any plan for non-korea asia and australia players all the worse. | ||
