I see, thanks for the new information, as I do not have those facts when I construct my argument. i guess1 explanation for the lack of playing from F91 would be his miss judgement on how high the rating of top12 cut off would be. The other explanation could be that he planed to cheat from the beginning and didn't care how far he drop off top 12, and finally the most logical explanation is that he's just a slacker

F91 didn't get caught, he admitted when asked about it. F91 is truly the only one who has a legit complaints of being dodged as all of TSL avoided him because of lag and maybe skill as well. A deadly combo that no one is to blame for.

It made it a very hard ladder for him, harder than for the others, but F91 and Ash were well aware and informed about this in advance of the ladder. We all knew this was going to be the case for him before he joined so there was nothing new there. When offered half-way to use a smurf he declined because it wasn't needed. They said it would be no problem getting top 12 playing vs Koreans and it seemed like that was going to hold true till F91 stopped playing.

Near the end they requested to smurf but with so little time left we denied the request because this close to the deadline we felt it wouldn't be fair to opponents not to be aware of who they were facing, as losing 1 or 2 games could make a huge difference on the final 2 days.

None of this should ever be an excuse to abuse. The only people who really get dodged are the ones good enough to beat all the Koreans (F91, Ret, Idra, White-ra). Not TSL-Reason don't make me laugh. Being good enough to be dodged means you are good enough to make it regardless, unless you refuse to put sufficient time in.


Plz don't ban F91 from future TL events
facts:
1) F91 needed top 12 because of timing of Q3 is near the official TLSL2 event.
2) F91 made it to top 12 by playing all koreans
3) F91 stop playing because he thought he is already secured top 12
4) Others in top 12 abused the ladder very late in the ladder stage to inflate the Top 12 cut off rating
5) F91 needed to get back into top12, but time is now a huge factor.
6) F91 is being dodged by all foreigners in the latter stage of the ladder. ( they requested a smurf account as a result, but was denied)
7) F91 asked friend to help him with abusing the ladder, as it was impossible to get back to top 12 with the inflated rating and the time that was left.
8) F91 straight up replied "yes I abused" when asked about this situation, And he didn't attempt to explain himself with the above 7 other facts.


dimaga and yosh were the only 2 in the top 12 who were caught abusing and their removal dropped the cutoff by around 20 points.
everyone good was dodged and its his own fault he didnt play enough to secure a spot when he knew he had to get top 12. first time he was asked he denied it, ash posted that.
if the other abusers are banned from tl events he should be too.

is there a hint there somewhere on that line suggesting they are not the only one abusing, but were only ones that were caught? Just making sure

I don't think anyone believes that 100% of the cheaters were caught, far from it. But at some point it becomes impossible to track / enforce / uncover.

freewin isnt cheating really, what rule would it be how hard you have to try to win? Imagine how hard it is to validate every game ever played on iccup

obviously it is cheating, just because its not something that can really be enforced doesnt mean its ok.

trek if you don't mind we are going to go ahead and ignore YOUR voice when it comes to abuse/hacking etc.

^_^

Doesn't really shock me you have less of a problem with freewinning than everyone else.

So why are you even opening your mouth when we are talking about high level & skilled play ?

just kidding man.. dont be so mean >_<


Trek isnt right. Cheating is cheating no matter what.

But then again there are things u just cant punish because u dont even recognize them or cant proof em

hmm, freewin isn't cheating to me either... look how many freewins there are in real sport.. when some team have no need to win then that team makes some moves just to try something new without any risk.. it's like that in starcraft.. it would be cheating if from the start some player gives freewin to some other.. but in the end of ladder when to one player win or loss made no difference..

no cheating

edit: ofcourse, we can debate about word freewin coz someone will say dreiven got freewin and dreiven (and me) would say that was not a freewin

you can't just compare the two that's seriously incredibly short sighted, how many alternate accounts do football teams have in the world championship

it is cheating but its so sublime and u can never be sure anyways so its useless arguing about it..
who can decide if a game was lost on purpose or not..


and that comparison is kinda off in deed..

no one said Dreiven got free wins just that the games under the cirumstances they were played are suspicous, if they were proven free wins he would probably not got them removed and thus the points but more likely been kicked ..

whatever I find it ridicolous that some people want other people to shut up on certain matters just because they have been a culprit at one time, too..

Purposefully throwing a game, is also not allowed in football. It is just hard to prove, and thus rarely acted against.

I just dont think the line between judging if someone plays 100% or if its a freewin is judgeable, altho you can go with opinions, but it will never be fact.. i didnt exactly mean it wasnt cheating tho, it kind of came out wrong.

So incontrol must be awesome up on your high horse ofc
