Whatever happens, you are still a bad poster

I definitely would not ban players from watching replays in the future. That would be very weird and unusual and just lead to millions of misunderstandings, especially with Korean players.

I think you (Seiniyta) read the map pool for MLG Dallas, where shakuras indeed had forced cross spawn.
Shakuras was updated in time for MLG Orlando though and haven't changed since.

Professional players such as Thorzain have stated many times, that the way MLG is run in regards to the comfort of the players is complete shit. The reason for that may be the fact, that they want to ensure to run a smooth tournament, but the flip side is obvious. Mlg really is shining like a bright star, no one can deny that, but what happens behind the scenes, we only find out when the pro players themselves say what's on their mind.

Maybe just a list of the current maps each with information regarding which version it is would be better and less confusing than a cangelog.

I did and already stated I was wrong I was tired and just looked it up whilst waiting for the third game to start. Though yeah, seeing how much confusion there is it might be best to make a seperate page for every event (or just change the page to reflect the current/upcoming event) So there can't be really any confusion/misreads. Even though MLG isn't at fault (a changelog is fine really) it might make it clearer and not as easy to misread

in future you should still either
a) have someone at / near the booth to make sure players don't look at the stats screeen
b) use map versions which don't show the build order
Furthermore, the replay very much shows information, not available in the stats screen: the position of the hatchery, It could have been a sneaky expansion or a proxy hatch - granted very unlikely but a possibility.

@MLGRyan Ryan Moore Naniwa and Nestea are in the player area talking; they seem to be on good terms. #MLG
Now the drama can end.

It really, REALLY isn't hard to read... I don't see how anyone reading that properly can be in any confusion. There were some settings at Dallas, they got changed for Orlando and the rules for Providence and the same as Orlando.

I don't know that this makes any sense and it would seem MLG has more face to save than Naniwa by trying to convince the public that their guy was right, but whatevs. I'm not saying anyone lied. I'm saying there was an obvious miscommunication concerning an ambiguous question concerning general map spawns.
If you say your admin didn't say that, then you're implying naniwa lied. It's not a hard conclusion to draw.

Ryan is seriously the guy who's gonna make the world work again after we've destroyed it with WMD's. Or just stop the next Cuban missile crisis. Just.

I don't quite see how naniwa not doing anything ingame after hosting the game himself qualifies as reason to restart the game. If you allow him to do that, everyone can do that in future: Start the game, do nothing, force a restart, look at opening build order, get an advantage.
They regamed after Naniwa paused to use the restroom, and Naniwa said the casters couldn't see the game. When Naniwa hosted the regame, for some reason it wasn't cross position, Seems to be a hosting blunder on his part.
but enough of this, Can we all just enjoy the GAIMEZ?

Also MLGAdam is Senior Vice President, League Operations and Production, If you can't trust someone like him then the league is fucked.

Why shouldn't it be allowed to look at the stats-screen after the match? Is that a common rule?
Oh, nvm, is it a commong thing to have maps that don't show the BO?
I also think that the admins should host to avoid these cases.

You realize that if a bunch of native English speakers are confused by the wording on your site, that someone who has English as a second language may also be confused?
Trying to place blame on Naniwa for this issue is pathetic.

Honestly, what probably happened was that Naniwa asked if the map was cross positions only and the MLG official said yes, thinking he meant that there is no vertical spawns on tha map.
In any case, the game is done and theres really nothing we can do at this point so we might as well stop looking for people to blame since that really doesn't solve anything. There is going to be no punishments or retribution so no point to the drama.
