Due to a conflict between the dates of IEM PyeongChang and WESG North & South American Qualifier, (T)SpeCial, (Z)Scarlett, (P)Neeb and (Z)JonSnow have all been disqualified from IEM PyeongChang. (P)puCK also would have been disqualfied but had removed himself from the qualifier the day before due to an already scheduled flight.

This issue was only made aware to the players less than an hour before the IEM Qualifier, and has caused much discussion and outrage on reddit, TL and twitter already, especially since the IEM dates were announced long after the dates of WESG were already known. Only (P)NonY and (Z)PengWin were available to replace them in the qualifiers

SpeCial has been pretty salty in twitch chat and I can't really blame him though I think he's being somewhat offensive with one of the jokes he is making.

Major also says that that the admin didn't even know about WESG NA dates or that it was an offline event until he told him 5 days ago

It was announced in August (https://en.wesg.com/en/sc2/news/starcraft-2-all-details-of-the-american-qualifiers)

He's posting skype logs into twitch chat now that seems to confirm this. He should maybe stop if he doesn't want to get banned from future IEMs though.

IEM PyeongChang was too good to be true, fortunately they revised the situation to make it seem more real.

very unfortunate situation, perhaps someone a little higher up should take charge of the situation before it happens again (and again)

I wonder if the IEM admin tried to reach out to the WESG admin and see if something can be worked out? Because they really only need one of the two events to be moved or shortened by one day for the schedule to work out.
very illegal and very uncool

Theoretically, as long as the WESG players don't play on day 1 of IEM, they could have made it. IEMs usually have groups spread over 2 days, which makes this decision kind of baffling since we don't know what the schedule for IEM actually is

It's messed up how IEM and DH can keep putting in as little effort as possible and still get people in their events and get Blizzard to give them WCS status because they're all that's left. They have a near-complete stranglehold on offline SC2 events. You could probably argue that it's a monopoly because they have the same parent company. Oh well, not going to waste any of my time watching an event put on by people so careless any time soon.

I really wish the qualifier was changed so that only 1 player of the group playing tonight got a slot. They could have held another NA qualifier, given it to another region (e.g. South Korea), or just had an open qualifier.

it would be great if remaining people in the qualifiers boycotted... force the tournament to fix the problem or else look very silly

Yeah. The smart move from some SA players might be to pull out of the WESG Americas qualifier considering how weak the IEM qualifiers will be in comparison.
