If you can grant F91 permission to play qualifications from within China, then why not RO16? What difference does this really make then? May as well make an exception for him as a whole?

Granting F91 special participation rights has nothing to do with him abusing the ladder. You are just sour on a personal level there. He should not be shunned any more than any other "abuser".

Either way, he abused. DQ is fair. gg

F91 could only have played the ladder from within China. Everything after that, he would've had to be somewhere else.

China has major lag issues; whilst playing the ladder from China, with lag, was possible (as there is a lower level of significance and fewer people are affected by the issue), having lag during broadcasted Ro16 matches and beyond would have been unacceptable for viewers and other players.

It's kinda wierd how some of these people fucked themselves over a 100 times more than anyone else. A2, F91 and Dimaga WOULD have qualified atleast in the top 48 regardless. Now they face the disgrace of a DQ and the prospect of being shunned by the entire community for a long time. I wonder if they any of them feels like a better seed into the tournament or whatever was worth all that. I'm guessing not.


Don't put f91 in there, he at least was put in a unique situation by tsl rules.

What? Of course F91 belongs in this list, he cheated just like the rest. Every player on the TSL ladder wanted to be in the top 12.


I read it as "don't put F91 in there because he wouldn't have qualified" but reading some of the later posts by .risingdragoon, I think I was wrong

Well, I'm ReasoN and I'm posting to clarify one thing, that TSL2 could have been one of the best online events of all time, if there weren't some extremely idiot rules, like forbidding smurfs, obviously the talented and famous players had a disvantage , especially those who were able to get excellent stats, and we, that did that, were praticaly dodged and ignored of the ladder, just in the most important fase (B+, A- above), with that we were unable or delayed pretty bad of getting a better rank (i didnt have 6hours per day to find people to play), and our unique solution would be playing with koreans (and that woudlnt be fair).
After spending hours trying to get games and being dodged and ignored by 99% of players, we got really in despair, and without thinking of the consequences we try to get some wins in a irregular way, which really hasn't changed anything in my situation (and the other tops that did the same). I even had classified myself by my own merits even without those wins. Dont get me wrong, im not saying that what we did was right, we did shit, but in my point of view, many of the other players had done too, like avoiding players with good stats, or spamming games on just one matchup like i saw some guys doing. (B+ A- only zerg msg for example...)

F91, Yosh, A2, Dimaga, ReasoN, Sarens

This list shows the total TSL2 fail in these requirements, players in this category with 80%++ win percentage with indisputable level were obligated to cheat for moving up in rank, because they were getting hard time to find games, u guys should reflect on what happend in this TSL2, and improve the rules for the next one, im retired since 2007 and i just came back to play this last tournament before quit this game definitely, sad that this shit had to happen, at least i had great time beating some players that are pretty active and who thinks that they are TOPS, and then they get raped by a retired player, i can quit this game satisfacted, peace all.

TSL2 = DODGER LADDER, congrats to the dodgers, they succeeded.


So basically TSL2 Failed because some faggots decided to abuse and get caught?

Coming from you that means very little to me. I was good friends with several of the top coaches and managers. I've been to many a clan war and I'm telling you these guys wouldn't win this tournament. A2 and Dimaga might have made the top 16, or Round of 8 but they most certainly wouldn't win it. I am very familar with both of their styles and I know what potential they have. For example, A2's Terran has always been very suspect against Zerg. Ret has a ridiculously good record against him. Right about now, I would start talking about F91 as A2 and F91 were teammates on MYM., but it's irrelevant because F91 already got caught.

Now then substandard, exactly who are you to say these guys would actually win it? Matter of fact, did you even say that. No, you didn't. All you said is they would reach the top ten. Did I dismiss that? NO. Now, ask yourself the question again? Would these two players win the entire thing? Simple answer: NO. They are long shots.

Verbatim: NO. They would not win this tournament.

EDIT: Bifur, coming from you that means little to me. Don't take what I said out of context. I know A2 almost as well as you and just because you are his countryman (we know you Russians have a great sense of pride, you don't have to preach it) and fought many a war with him doesn't mean you can negate facts. He hasn't played solidly in a while. Hell, the kid has been on and off for ages. When he's on his A game he is a very, very good player but no one other than his fellow countrymen and a few other fan boys would expect him to win this thing because the competition has risen tenfold since A2's hay day.

With that said, as much as I would looove to say who is going to win this thing. I don't. But, I can give you a shortlist of 5 to 8 players who most likely would.

Last year I chose NonY over JF. Close but no cigar. I was very close selecting my fellow countryman and it wasn't out of blind faith, but because I was quite familiar with him as well.

Now, then sir. What do you have to say to that?

Considering you haven't really been around the clan leagues for such a long time I don't think you should be one to judge bro.

I'll end it at that.

I don't have the strength right now to read through this thread.I just wanted to register my dismay about this whole situation.

Some players that I had really been looking forward to seeing in the Ro48 onward got DQed. That's balls. That was a very shortsighted, I want to say even selfish thing to do. Yosh? Dimaga? To say nothing of Advokate and F91. I'm not mad at you guys at all. Just depressed. And god damn it you were all in it. You had this shit made.

The quality of the tournament suffers from these losses. The spirit of 100% undiluted, compulsive-F5-on-the-Ladder-Standings euphoria that this tournament had been bringing me over the past few weeks began to taper. I feel like something was stolen. And I feel like the punishment for the people who stole it is the theft itself, which is like some entirely novel species of suck-assery.

*note: I respect the administration of the TSL for making these calls. Not a word to say against them. This tournament is a beautiful thing, really is. I just feel bummed, and I wanted to bitch about it in a sphere where someone might comiserate.*

**note: I am sure once the Ro48 starts, my spirits will pick up. I still got Drone, iNc, ret, Mondy, IdrA, etc., etc., et al.**

To be honest, the potential of having entertaining games just dropped by 50%. I don't even know if I will watch it or not. DAMN CHEATERS!

Personally, I don't enjoy watching cheaters so the fact that they are banned is good news to me but to the point there are still 48 awesome players in this tournament and I for one am looking forward to watching as many matches as I can between now and the end.

Who cares about the abusers, we have an awesome tournament to come up with amazing players, Ret, Idra, White Ra, Nyoken, Mana , Sen , Koll ect. , Bunch of dark horses , new players to the scene and most importantly, a lot of fun

Lets stop going "Fox News" on what happen with the abusers, lets let the admins handel it in their own way, and lets us focus just on following this kick ass tournament ;o

i would just like to say to those who said "oh, they wouldn't have won anyways" that some people play not to win, but just to be a part of the thing. Of course, they'll try to win the whole thing, but just being a part of this great event is an achievement itself. That's why so many people play the ladder (regular TL members) even though they know they won't make top 48. They tried their best, but knew they wouldn't make it. However, just being a part of it all was great in itself.



and of course, upsets happen. so it's not necessarily idra vs ret in the finals.

hi,
was stupid decision and I regret it, to explain it I just must say that I didnt had the time to finish the ladder since I came away in weekend and decided to play TuZeR with his smurf. I just regret it was mostly due to a lack of time since I was losing 3 days of the ladder, I tryed and I failed.It's deserved. I dont search escuses or anything just want to apologize to every players and the organizers of this tour.

Have fun to everyone and good luck to the players.
