"I specifically told you the winner would still be going to Korea. If he wanted that is.
The maps are favoring Zerg and Terran because they would like to see a Zerg win. They are of the opinion that the chances are a Protoss player making it would have a much, much harder time doing good in Korea. They are right on this. I personally think that the fact that the maps in Korea suck shouldn't affect the tournament they are running, however I can also see their point of view and agree that if you're aiming for a player to do good a Zerg/Terran has better chances (in general)."
Well if smuft n elky knew the winner wasnt gonna b on the team, why would they want to a zerg player win because they will do better in tournaments if the winner wont beable to play in tournaments at all?

So they care about having only having a zerg/terran player go to korea and not toss?
Let me rephrase this:
Why would they care what race the winner is if they won't play anyway? They picked zerg maps because they want a zerg player to win and go to korea to sit there and do nothing?
|
they care about the player doing good?
|
is the winner actually gonna get to play any tournaments or trials?
|
im just wondering whos paying for the winner to go to korea ? with all the money added up from people registering for wdt is only $2500 and if there not joining the dream team i doubt there paying for anything is $2500 enough for someone to go to korea for 3 months? if its not a enough why would smuft and elky do this ? they would just loose money

They are using the money from WDT to pay for airfare and a little bit of the stay, SMUFT and ElkY will be paying out of their POCKET for the remainder of the players stay. Yes, thats right, these "scam artists" are doing something GREAT for the game, and something GREAT for the non korean community. I think its time all you flamers just shut the fuck up, and accept the fact that ILNP has some wicked zerg.
|
Elky & Smuft for whatever isn't covered
won't be THAT much
|
even if he does has some wicked zerg He STILL LOST To ReT got it?
|
hmm that kinda sucks whoever is going is prolly gonna have to pay alot for them selves and elky and smuft will prolly make the poor kid pay for his own way home

So, from what I have read, this is the result:
All of the things that were promised WILL happen, except for joining the team because your manager is mentally incapable of communicating with his team correctly. This includes paid airfare, paid housing, food, and other accomodations, as well as enterance into offline trials and tournaments (excluding the two that you mentioned they will not get to play in). This is great and fantastic. However, when we paid, we were all under the assumption that, given we won the eventual finals tournament, that we would obtain a spot on the Dream Team. Since this isn't happening, something needs to be added to the list of stuff that the tournament winner gets. Joining DT was one of the larger incentives of the tournament.
If you were running any large organized competition and you suddenly couldn't give the winners a large portion of the prize for winning, you're gonna have some pretty pissed off people. The heads of said competition would most definitely do something to compensate for the loss, such as finding a new prize. All I see being done here is: "Oh well, part of the prize is gone, not our problem. Sorry about that, though." Smuft and Elky, as the heads of this event have personal responsibilities that they are not taking seriously.
This wasn't a scam, it was simply two people running an event that don't know what they're doing and can't deal with people correctly. I'm assuming it was probably Smuft/Elky's idea to do this in the first place, but that still doesn't make everything ok. Something needs to be done to remedy the situation.
Also, the tournament needs to be replayed. Ret defeated ilnp. ilnp is out of the tournament. All games from that point on need to be replayed.

if i was elky or smuft and had to pay out of my own money whoever wins will be eating rice and water everyday
Whoever wins this wont be so lucky elky will prolly try and save as much money as he can the poor kids gonna be like sleeping in the bathtub and sucking elky and smufts dick just for lunch
