Simple. Don't try to spoil yourself. People go look at the players history and then blame tournament organizers because of that. And TeamLiquid from now on (replay casting) should not update the brackets till all the results of a round comes in.
Brackets are frozen to the public starting with Ro16, once the replays of Ro16 have been streamed the next part of the bracket will be shown. |

Speaking of which, someone spoiled the result of Haypro qxc in the stream chat by looking at match history near the beginning of the stream of the game.
+ Show Spoiler +Once I saw Haypro took a decent advantage I stopped watching really because I knew that there was not going to be a comeback. Last edit: 2010-09-19 02:00:52 |

That's what we thought before TSL2. There's money involved, people will cheat if you let them. |

Bad GG timing from qxc =/
Haypro being a little silly towards at the end throwing some units away but with several thousand minerals he can just throw stuff away. |

Yeah I used to think that the "higher level" players wouldn't cheat, but then TSL2 happened and we saw what's what. Go check out the old threads if you want to be shocked at who cheated. |

did you see how long it took haypro to finish qxc off? a terran with an equivalent advantage would've rolled over the zerg player. |
