The ensuing whining would be of such magnitude, it would land at least a 8.6 rating on the Greg Fields' scale of complaining. Experts have deduced that it would land a full 11 points on the alternate whinging measurement system; the EGPuMa 1/1/1 scale. A veritable tsunami of whining. The perfect storm.

However that final game was simply amazing and don't see why people would complain after the way the tournament ended

In about two minutes, all of these bans happened:

btw you guys are quick O.o I just got my report button and wanted to use it but you guys were ahead of me every time :D

I don't see what is wrong with a split pot theory. I would certainly offer to split the pot with my teammate if we were both in the finals. I have done this in MTG and other TCG for example. Is there something in the tournament rules to prohibit it? I don't see why people are getting temp banned for it.

I'm staying here. I feel I've been dangerously close to saying something I shouldn't have at the people posting shit atm. GG's, I enjoyed the games. The conspiracy thread showing up like 5 minutes after the game is hilarious though.

I think it has more to do with the brood war match fixing scandals and the major backlash that happened because of it.
Players won't risk fixing games and splitting the prize pool.

I hope one day the masses are so blindly influenced by Tastosis that they don't turn into mindless haters. It's actually pathetic whenever nestea or idra is involved how crazy people become.

It's actually pathetic whenever nestea or idra is involved how crazy people become. I like that there are passionate fans. I do however not like that there are self-brainwashed ignorant easily angered fans who hate on everything and everyone that beats their favourite player and try to take credit away from the winner. It's sad to see.
Yea it's really pathetic, I'm signaling them out since they seem to have the most hatred around. I think it stems from the insane hype these players get that they people actually believe they godlike and if they lose it must be because of some cosmic imbalances.
I don't get why then can't just be sad their favorite player lost and move on. It's cool being passionate but being full of hatred is just pathetic.
Also this delusional racial bias is becoming a really big issue I feel. People don't even care about players or good games. They just want to see X race winning. Don't care how and will hate anything that isn't X race. I mean the amount of Terran hate is getting out of control. Freak the amount of hate in general is getting crazy. Is the starcraft community finally becoming as bad as other gaming communities?

I'm going to stop reporting people now lol. There are too many of them and too many which are just angry at everything, not necessary breaking rules.
On that note, What do TL do with users who abuse the report button (report people who are disagreeing with the user, reporting everyone, bad judgement etc)? Case by case? I do believe that I'm fair at least but I don't want to risk a ban for asking a mod to take a look at a post >_>

No one knows how to solve the issues of African American ghettos
But I do know that if successful African Americans start doing their own "occupy ghetto" movements to help raise destitute poor single parented African American kids, the crime rate of African Americans would drop.
And that's what these kids in the ghettos need the most, they need help from their own communities and people. They need fathers that have gone to college. They need successful role models to shape their lives. Rappers and pro athletes aren't.
User was temp banned for this post.
Not really sure it deserved the ban IMO, I doubt he's right but I don't think he deserved the ban. Bad post / troll post history perhaps?

Running around reporting people is pretty much the lamest fucking thing ever. (what are you like some kind of tattle tale?) I have been here for like 6 years and I have like reported 1 person ever.

It's extremely rare however and I sincerely doubt tonight you're in any risk.
It's more like- hurr report every post on the front page for no reason.
Anyway I"m glad I logged out and played a few games instead of reading anything. I'm more glad I stayed far, far away from the LR threads during the games.
One small comment though- I'm a passionate Nestea fan. He's my favorite player above and beyond any other player in any game. He's a zerg hero to me.
Do you see me raging and acting like a whiny asshole?
