Taeja just played in Red Bull qualifier but is "sick" to play in this one. Taejas forfeit is obviously a lie. Teamliquid does not respect tournament and foreign community enough to have him play. They just dont give a shit.


If Taeja hadn't forfeited his bracket match, it would've been him or Minigun in the group. (Assuming those groups are indeed correct). So odds are he wouldn't have been in that group to begin with. These are inherent problems with the system. Yeah the proper thing would've definitely have been to play all the matches and for everyone to focus on all their opponents equally. Unfortunately, right now many players rather worry about what's best for themselves in the short term, until they're stuck on the bad end of the deal when suddenly they realize the effect it's having.

Nothing wrong with motivating players to do their best (job). It's only a problem when players would be motivated to lose. Anyway, this is obviously a successful attempt to be entertaining/ funny. Gratz Nani!

It takes way less effort than being outraged and upset about every little thing. You spend less time angry and more time happy. Plus the ladies love a positive thinker.

I see absolutely no problem with this.

If golfers can make match bets, why can't SC2 progamers? Moreover, there is no obvious bad blood to be found in the tweet by NaNiwA. It's an Alliance player encouraging more interesting and friendly competition, and no one here has any reason to believe otherwise unless they've talked to NaNiwA or Revival lately.

Id love to see a study on perception of ethics based on this thread. A Short disclaimer on age and background would make it so much more interesting.

Myself: 29, real corruption (or rather not being corrupted) is a very important topic and a problem in my line is work.
Sentence: not guilty.

Depends on how you do it. The art of war would support Naniwas actions and The Prince would be super supportive.

Again, this is not the art of war. This is a game/sport so the comparison makes absolutely no bloody sense.

It only doesn't make sense because while Alexander *had* to pay people to fight, Revival still has to fight the same people whether Naniwa gives money or not.

Its more akin to giving someone a performance based bonus for sealing the deal with a particularly difficult client.

Neither does complaining about something they do professional golf all the time. Really not that big of a deal.

I don't get the people thinking this is bad or wrong :D Worst case scenario - someone in challenger league actually tries to win apart from Revival, who is the only one to have anything to actually try for in this moment.

This challenger league shouldn't even be played in the first place, let alone give any WCS points :D It's all a mess thanks to Blizzard.

It's not like that at all. The person giving the bonus and the employee receiving the bonus is part of the same entity. That's not the case with Naniwa and the players Revival is playing.

It's more like paying a third party money to steal your competitor's clients away.

I'm sure Naniwa tried to win in challenger too. And he didn't have to play against players with a bounty on his head.

And the difference that the bounty will make is so negligible it will not matter. Theses are professional players, not amatures.
