Blizzard logic never stops amazing me. How hard are you trying to screw over Chinese and Taiwanese players right now? And to be quite honest, if the system allows Korean players to qualify, the system shouldn't screw them over on travel costs right after. Think how much money a team like Axiom or Liquid would spend to send their players to WCS AM without this help. Yes, just imagine how much it would cost them to fly out their players to WCS NA. Of course, their players could participate in GSL. The WCS tournament that takes place around the corner. But no, they would rather make a fly-by to America, and by god they should be compensated for doing that. You are out of your mind. HEY GUIS, LET'S FLY THE CHINESE PLAYERS TO PLAY IN GSL EVERY SEASON. THAT'LL WORK OUT GREAT. I'M SURE ACCOMODATION IN SEOUL IS COMPLETELY FREE AND THIS IS AN AWESOME PRACTICAL IDEA. While I agree with you on the subject content-wise, I (and I think I'm not alone in this) would greatly appreciate it, if you wouldn't go ad hominem in every discussion you take part in, just because they didn't think something completely through. Not offending people generally leads to a more constructive environment. And I would appreciate it if you did not engage in the fallacy fallacy. The only ad hominem that occurred in that post was the first line. The rest of the post was completely valid. Detecting a fallacy does not win you the argument, nor does it score you points. jesus christ he just asked you to be a little nicer. you're the one going into some kind of tryhard mode citing logical falacies and shit
Wax whatever you're huffing, quit it. Massively overreacting for no reason doesn't score any points either.
Only person I'm insulting in this thread is MajOr and he deserves every bit of it.

The title is misleading, he didn't say anything about forfeit. Wax fuelling the drama  .
It's a really unprofessional way to handle things by him though, it's laughable. Why complain now after you qualify.... Also the general way of acting shows it's no surprise he had so many different teams I guess.

I rolled a die. The result was to point your pitchfork at Ctone23. Personally I don't think, that he did anything wrong, but so is the nature of pitchforks, they don't always make sence.

I think he was requesting a slight dialing back on some of the abrasiveness. I understand and sympathize with the fact that you are going through some rough shit and I truly wish you all the best, just try to remember that you have friends as well as foes on the internet.

Actually this is essentially the root of the problem. There is no WCS Asia. GSL has always been a different format from current WCS tournaments - online play, then offline play. Blizzard needs to step up and start explore new solutions to better accomodate each region. There's a surplus of korean players flying all over the world incurring high travel costs, it's time to get a 2nd Asiatic Tournament and full region lock on WCS AM/EU. Full region lock would kill WCS AM. Right now there aren't enough consistent and good AM players to bring in viewers. The tournament would get abysmal viewer numbers, be plagued with forfeits, and quickly become irrelevant. Plus, isolating AM players from the koreans isn't doing them any favours either. Playing against the Koreans who are better players causes AM players to have to work harder and play better if they want to compete and only raises the level of play in AM. I like the soft-region lock we have now and if it became AM only players, I would probably lose a lot of interest. 3.) The difference is that GSL is FULL REGION LOCKED. exaggeration is a way of lie it's just a straight up lie. the GSL is just a full lan event. *sigh* can't believe I have to explain this. WCS AM , the AM qualifiers require the players to live inside AM to participate. While there are other qualifiers for outsiders with limited openings. Hence why violet participated in the AM portion of the qualifiers, and therefore soft region lock GSL, due to the format, all players have to be in korea for the qualifiers, hence FULL REGION LOCK. if for you a region lock is because you've to be somewhere to play a qualifier i can't do anything... the real rule is Show nested quote + Restrictions:
You must be at least Master league on the European server.
You must be a European citizen or posses a working visa for a European country.
It implies it. All the foreigners who tried for GSL essentially lived in Korea for a period of time. Artosis, Scarlette and State. And let's be honest, GSL doesn't have dedicated qualifiers for players outside of Korea. Never had, and never will. And I'll state it again, which makes it essentially FULL REGION LOCKED.

First of all, i messaged everyone i know from blizzard before making tweet either a)didnt reply me back or b) didnt gave me a real response or give me stuff liek this [03/06/2014 09:01:15 p.m.] Daniel 'pHaRSiDE' Brooks: mexico is considered central america..
[03/06/2014 09:01:19 p.m.] major: rofl
[03/06/2014 09:02:05 p.m.] Daniel 'pHaRSiDE' Brooks: or not..
[03/06/2014 09:02:08 p.m.] Daniel 'pHaRSiDE' Brooks: doesn't matter to me
[03/06/2014 09:02:51 p.m.] Daniel 'pHaRSiDE' Brooks: I'm not doing the flights, so if is only $500 like I'm pretty sure it is, I guess I wish you the best of luck.
than dont give me the contact of whoever is doing the flights?
a flight from my city to lax can cost up to 700$ normally is 600-650 tho, than 100 usd per way of taxi thats another 200$ that could be almost 400$. im not rich, i dont have a team - yes koreans flights cost more but when u been doing wcs for 6 seasons and 5 of them you paid all cost for NA players than change it for this season. is not fair. especially when they said they wouldnt support KR players with travel fees when they first created WCS america, since when i was in korea i asked would u guys cover anything from my travel if i qualify for wcs am season 1? and they gave me a no. only players from NA get covered.

From which city are you btw?
I'm almost certains people in here could find you a flight for less than 500$. If you are from Mexico city, it's already less than 400.

The way that Major presented the problem is childish at best
He no longer deserves understanding from Blizzard.
Fortunately for us if he forfeits he harms himself more than anyone.
If money is all that matters he should play better so that he gets a bigger prize.
hard to root for him now in my opinion.

I hope he still plays...we need at least one player from the Americas in WCS AM.

[03/06/2014 09:02:51 p.m.] Daniel 'pHaRSiDE' Brooks: I'm not doing the flights, so if is only $500 like I'm pretty sure it is, I guess I wish you the best of luck.
than dont give me the contact of whoever is doing the flights?
a flight from my city to lax can cost up to 700$ normally is 600-650 tho, than 100 usd per way of taxi thats another 200$ that could be almost 400$. im not rich, i dont have a team - yes koreans flights cost more but when u been doing wcs for 6 seasons and 5 of them you paid all cost for NA players than change it for this season. is not fair. especially when they said they wouldnt support KR players with travel fees when they first created WCS america, since when i was in korea i asked would u guys cover anything from my travel if i qualify for wcs am season 1? and they gave me a no. only players from NA get covered.
Maybe the community can help you out then. I hope you realize several other players would sacrifice a lot to be in your position. Hope it works out.
Also, you are guaranteed 3K so even if you had to borrow from someone you know you can easily pay them back. Obviously sucks if Blizzards allotment won't cover your expenses. But if you forfeit, as mentioned in this thread, you would be in 17th place and lose 1K automatically.

I'm sure with his attitude the community will be just be falling over themselves to throw money at him.
