There was no drama on that though. Everyone hated Forgg at the time + it was a BO win and it was the only way Ra could get into ro8, he lost the game, Forgg just failed and used a dumb trick, the bos were 2Rax MnM push vs 12nex, some luck that Ra got there.

Basically a lot of useless bullshit, but pretty scandalous. Also iirc bwchart was released in this timeframe, probably during or slightly after increasing the evidence that ilnp(banana.milk) did not play. He went 9pool during pretty much the whole ladder wich was kinda cool.
EDIT:Didnt Asmodey play for eVERLAST in the 01 wcg qualification cause some commotion? Dont really remember this.

when that program came out that detected people using automine, and the list of hundreds of names of hackers that were caught because of it.

People listed all the big episodes already.
I would just like to add in the biggest drama that has happened in the BRAZILIAN BW community, because it was pretty hilarious.
Two guys hated each other very badly. They BS'ed each other on the internet for a long long time and finally they really met in a LAN tourney. Everybody knew something was going to happen.
The hype and the tension was building up, everybody was like OH SHIT right from the start of the tourney. Of course, these guys proceeded to meet each other on a semi-final I think. Here comes the fun part: After losing the first game, the loser ATTACKED the other dude with a CHAIR TO THE HEAD. No fucking kidding. Up to this day the term "Chair Rush" is used in the brazilian BW community. No after fight or anything, as people interfered right away. But he was disqualified, lol.
Same guy that did the "chair rush" was later, on another episode, accused of paying some guy to lose to him on purpose at some online tournament, and in the end he admited the whole thing was true. Trust me, nowadays he's not the guy with the best online reputation ever.
Adding in their names won't do much in an international community like this I guess, so I'll just leave post like this.

funnily enough, everyone thought it was chojja who played for ilnp, until rek bought out the bombshell that is was oversky a couple of years ago.

Win Thanks for the great story, now if something happened like that in WCG USA that would be pretty awesome, too bad that drama is only limited to online drama.

1. rekrul 2. rekrul 3. rekrul 4. rekrul 5. rekrul Can you enlighten me? As far as I've gathered, rekrul is a very accomplished poker player/ awesome troll with some sort of progaming related experience of whose nature is unclear to me. Also his tag is very distinctive (bold black) which, among other things, leads me to believe he's some thing equal to or greater that a mod. That's all I got

In the early days of progaming, when KeSPA didn't have all these crazy rules, there were some... incidents.
I know for a fact that one progamer paused a game to take a shit. I don't remember who or when or whether the game even really mattered. All that I remember is that it was funny.
There was the Boxer vs Autumn and Garimto e-Drama early on. Autumn accused Boxer of relying too much on cheesey strategies and Garimto, being friends with Autumn, took that side. Which is funny because later on Garimto also became known for the same kind of strategic play, with hidden buildings and the like.
sexsexpussyhair deserves a mention. That's the equivalent of the Janet Jackson boob drop right there. Except that it was funny. And Janet Jackson was not sexy.
...I don't remember anything else just now.
