Because i'm a gigantic nerd, I'm reminded of a line from firefly. Jayne, after being caught betraying the others says

"I got stupid ok? the money was too good"

As many have been saying, good to see cheaters disqualified; sad to see great players who I was looking forward to seeing play sink to such lows.
When you arise in the morning, think of what a precious privilege it is to be alive - to breathe, to think, to enjoy, to love.

Problem is, when people know they ain't gonna make it, they are not gonna loose anything on cheating. Because the only punishment will be they are D.Q. It's no loss if you aint gonna make it anyway. So there should be a harder punishment.

Not participating in future TL events can be pretty serious. Also for most people their reputation is actually important. It's important for your pride, but also to find sponsors and respect in the online community.


Ok, I just thought it wouldn't effect the next TL event since I heard rumors of old hackers and cheaters participating. Pride is a small thing when it comes to money thou.. And if you're not a well known player why would you care? Strange thing that recognized gosu players like F91 and A2 doing it thou :/
This is what happens when you fuck a stranger in the ass!

Cases of future participation are reviewed on a one by one basis, based on a lot of things (such as how long ago it is etc) but this is not the right place to discuss it so I'm going to leave it at that.

Goddamnit, why would A2 do that?

The ladder he played from China, which he was allowed to do because he would play the qualifiers from outside of China. The problem was that he could not make the date for Q1 and Q2 so he had to get top 12 to make it to Q3.

F91 was only flying to Taiwan for the qualifier portion of TSL (not ladder) which is why he needed Top 12 so badly (Top 12 is scheduled closer to the actual TSL).

I'd rather watch some fair noobish players play TSL, than the good ones who cheat, being it A2, mondragon or IdrA, I dont care, you have to respect the rules,,,gratz TL
I am a great believer in luck. The harder I work the luckier I am.

TSL format is too long and A2 or F91 couldn't make it without this mistakes they never done before and probably will never do again... you must put yourself in TSL to get a spot (for F91 it was much thougher coz he had to be in top12) for at least 3 weeks.. a2 and f91 are top10 foreign players without any doubt..

everything would be different if TSL players could play ONLY TSL players.. i mean, it's their ladder, gain points against players you compete against.. i don't judge a2, pomi or f91, i understand them.. this ain't the same thing as hacking and word cheating is too strong for what they did..

they deserve to be DQ but they don't deserve so much trash talking.. a2 won against jaedong and he is top3 russian player for many years.. no one have right to trash talk about him coz of this thing..

Yes they do deserve to be trash talked. You can't cheat and expect everyone to go "well its k he took a game off Jaedong so its cool" Look at Testie, top player who cheated and he got his fair share of hazing (tho of course Testies case was way worse). From the looks of it though He didn't even NEED to cheat.

I too am reminded of a line by Jayne.

"I'll be in my bunk."

Just from all the precious drama and excitement TSL provides.

i can't call it a cheating and certainly can't compare this thing with someone that cheats in a game and tries to look better than he really is.. a2 has no reason to do that coz he is much better than most of the players in top48...

i would like to hear his version

A2 cheating is just retarded. He could of made top 48 without cheating ez. F91 is at least understandable because he could settle for nothing less then top 12 , but A2 cheating just feels lazy
When the spirit is not altogether slain, great loss teaches men and women to desire greatly, both for themselves and for others.
