The distance is the problem.
I know Sarah and Sebastian are in France and I'm pretty sure ABOOD and 7mood are located in some barren desert in a country that I can't pronounce. It's annoying as hell that they delay, but the reality is that it's completely out of their control and they'd feel completely cheated out if they were unable to enter the GST just because of where they live. Does that give them an excuse to lazily hop on a spotty 3G connection to milk their lag and warp around? Nope, but some form of delay is practically unavoidable

Yes i understand. I just wish they wouldn't put such a statement in the GST rules, if they would not in-force them. I understand for some players, it's impossible not to delay. E.x. Nearly all Aussie players have a delay around 1,000ms. In some cases it's just not there fault, but i still feel there were better players, with more of a chance to win, than the ones who did.
Also I'd like to reiterate here that, i was not a part of the idevice GST, i was ON an idevice in the mixed GST. So i wasn't even in that torny, i just know for a fact most of there connections are shotty, also of you look at the list of players, really the only AWFUL one is Sebastian who claims to reside in the US. :|
