I sometimes get nightmares from that | ||

All the big names rarely get banned. It's an admin decision. I also believe rekrul might still be an admin. I know he was at one time. Rek has been temp banned before for shitting on Plexa ^^ | ||

I mean, I'd hope it's pretty obvious that the dispute is over whether Strelok had an advantage in game 2? The initial decision was that he was ahead by enough to justify giving him the game, which was evidently what he believed. It's not like people were considering just handing him the game for no reason. As for Strelok's reaction: I would be annoyed if someone had at first judged me to be ahead by enough to warrant playing from 1-1, and then later changed his mind and taken the game away. I'm not claiming that I would lnecessarily eave the tournament over it, but... it would suck, right? My impression is that no one's being deliberately bm about this; given the reputations of the people in question, it seems most likely Strelok and the judges honestly thought he had the advantage and Artosis honestly doesn't agree. In any case: debating the decision itself in this thread is fairly pointless, because the whole issue hinges on whether Strelok was in fact considerably ahead in game 2, or whether the game was even enough to require replaying. Since the replay hasn't been released, none of us can know, and hence none of us could possibly know what the right decision should have been. | ||

It sucks on both ends. Only fair way to do it is replay the game. No reason to dismiss the chance at 1000$ just because a bit of unprofessionalism on their part. Just replay the game, imo | ||

I don't think this thread was made for discussion, but rather as a last resort that Strelok is using to try to solve the issue. And by "issue" I mean the recurring lack of professionalism in non-korean tournaments, which ironically was pointed out by SDM himself. | ||

Be a man and replay that game. I can understand your anger, but be above of that unprofessional decision making. Its bad for SC, its bad for valor and its bad for u, because u are definitely capable of winning this tournament. Furthermore publish that replay and make a poll, so the community can decide which one of the decisions were right ! our? uh? what your from germany yes? last i checked strelok wasnt. OMG ur such a genius!! :D This post made my day,even better than the whole thread hahahah glad i could help | ||

If my government actually made a mistake and sent me 20,000 dollars for taxes instead of 200 and then later fixed the mistake would I have any right to that money or to being upset? Yes its annoying that Valor is a complete crap tournament and is being run worse then most of the tournaments put out by community sites BUT you are not a crap person and have no right to demand that lipton and DLEE stick to an obviously RETARDED decision. Can we play a bo5, with disconnects resulting in a replay of the entire series? I'm sure given enough oppurtunities I can beat you..... | ||

Fenix AND strelok should not have lost because of this. 3a. This means that Fenix deserved the regame as a close game -> disconnect should never be awarded a win in tourney play AND strelok should be man enough/have a cool head to accept a shitty decision WHICH MEANS he recovers from admins flipping a decision. 4. Artosis made the right decision to have them replay game 2. lol you might look up fact somewhere, because none of these things are any. | ||

To me the issue is whether or not both Lipton and Daniel said it was their "final decision" that Strelok would get the win in game 2. Once a decision is called final, it should under no circumstances be changed (even if it was a questionable one) unless the situation changes, which it did not. In my opinion this is unprofessional behaviour. | ||

Some ideas I have: 1) He supports his partner. 2) He thinks it was a correct decision based on his own experience in professional SC. 3) He doesn't care that much about that isse and simply agreed on Lipton's decision to be done with it. 4) There were some facts we don't know about. I don't think 3) is the case, he seems to care at least that much about Valor. Just listing it for completeness' sake. Any other thoughts? SDM has been around in the professional scene too long to make such bad decisions just like that, at least that's my opinion. So this really bugs me quite a bit... | ||
