Boycott WCG USA, by Day[9]
Artosis flamed iNcontroL after getting cheesed once, losing once to a lurker sneak and winning one to lose 1-2 (was cursing about it for a while rofl)
G5 doesn't type out gg before leaving game 2 in the Losers Bracket Finals (but he shakes Louder's hand after lol)
(please PM me or post with any other drama posts/threads/links/information that deserve to be added)
