We PM'd over 15 people and no one responded, we had to move on as quick as possible

Less than a minute and you gave the win, kudos on time efficiency lol

We anticipated PRIOR to the match that the player wasnt on so we already were aware of the situation by the time it came up on steam.

You are the best! The big surprise, did you know there was a stream???

Thallen 12-11-2016 04:53 AM

the rigging thing is only funny if it's planned between players
or if the tournament doesn't take 4 hours and younger people aren't incentivized by a real-money prize

just my opinion though, didn't watch but people seem actually annoyed by it

Well to be brutally honest, this was never supposed to be a die hard serious tournament from the beginning.

For those that actually watched the tournament or saw significant parts of it, everything we did was a complete joke. Sure, we wanted everyone to have fun, but money-thirsty try-hards that wanted to win for the sake of the prize was not our intention.

Some of the stupid stuff we did (intentionally) includes, but is not limited to:
- The entire history regarding RPST
- The 'combos'
- The RPS cheat tools
- The 'nitros'

If you weren't able to catch on yet, it was all sort of mocking the spar community. Not in hopes to break it apart or to disparage it, but mainly in a comical manner. We'd make fun of "delayers' and use of "VPNs" to gain unfair advantages in RPS, which we all know is ridiculous. We'd even say that some people were lagging, which effected the outcome, which once again is ridiculous.

So please, please do not be so sore about this tournament. It was an experiment.

It was for fun.

I bow to you for this post. Thanks for the idea, that was some of the most fun I've had since I've been back and it went super well!

I think we all understand that, but I doubt that changes the fact that a few people probably didn't get much joy out of getting screwed over. Even though nothing was done to me, I personally just dislike seeing people get screwed over in general so I will say I am a little annoyed at that.

Fun experience excluding this stuff.

No one was screwed over and that's just taking this too seriously which was never the intention of the tournament. It was purely for fun and maybe someone wins in the end for $20 which is how more of this game should be (for fun). This was easily the most fun event I've been apart on iClassic.
