30 days ban?


Sure, but a fair deal would be 7 day ban for me, and 30 day ban for you. Thoughts?

Haha i see, let me think.
If you are banned you cannot do anything on TL i guess? That means the duel in the "Zest is best" fpl group would be kinda over, hmhmhm
I will think about it and let you know, in general i am ok with 7/30 though. We still have a few days to make it happen

I am proud to have invented the differential ban


I doubt this wasn't a thing before

Afaik, banned users can still use FPL and Liquibets, as well as PMing mods. That's all.

I may change my mind after the 4th person is revealed and I am in a moment of french euphoria. How about this, instead of ban we take it to 7 day/30 day sigbet, which won't interfere with your zest fpl group.

My sig isn't mine in the next ~8 months :D

A bit of an odd thing with this IEM (if the matchups are properly listed on Liquipedia) - traditionally, the players from the host region and host country face the players from the Open Bracket. This time, they all are listed as starting against the wild card players.
The world is better when every background has a chance.

Forgive my ignorance as I haven't followed SC in a very very long time. How come some of the top players like Life and Maru are not included in this tournament? Sorry for the stupid question. Thanks!

There was only 2 spot for the corean in the qualifier witch INno an SoO took and most kespa team won't paid to send their player and sometime won't even allow them to play in qualifier since it clash with pro league which is where the team make most of their money

I see thanks. So is IEM not that big of a deal actually? Obviously players make time for GSL/S2SL.

I'd say soO is the best player in the world right now and Innovation is top two Terran. Yeah and Rain just won GSL. Pretty good players. Life isn't even top 3 Zerg anymore and Maru have wrist problems, he probably doesn't even wanna play more than he needs to.

IEM is not a korean tournament. Korean teams don't care about foreign tournaments, partly due to prestige and partly due to having korean sponsors.

Life, Maru and a few others are also already confirmed to have a spot at Blizzcon so that just makes it slightly less attractive to attend a lot of tournaments.

I just realized, Rain might not attend the tournament.
Gamescom starts on the 5th, but Rains SSL group is on the 6th, how can he be at Gamescom and in Korea at the same time.
(I am aware that Rain will play on the 7th due to being in Group D, but still a flight from Korea to Germany?) If this was an IEM in Asia then probably he has the timeto fly there and Rest...

You could say the same for Rain, who is also locked for Blizzcon
