Well Focus GST was a the mixed tournament. Focus was a Voyage/Reborn sparring team. However, 3 members failed to show after practicing for weeks and having full commitment. 1 member was a sub member and took the place of one of the missing cores. However, still we had 1 spot on core and nobody to fill it, as the other subs was one of the off-lines. I tried to take it, all of Focus tried really hard to switch me in as one of the cores before GST started. Focus had a great spar score (believe it was 45 or 50) and didn't want to lose because only 4 were sparring. An admin, (who never contacted me, only talked to other Focus sparers) was trying to get me in and he couldn't figure it out. So, after several minutes of him trying to add me to gst team, he gave up and put Focus in their first match against SDE, who had 5 great sparrers and beat focus.

TDLR: GST was a mess, admins didn't know how to work essential mechanics on GST systems, the whole GST roster system caused major issues. (Nobody could leave iDevice team and joined Mixed, when iDevice was an accidental team)

Lag fest, confused admins, ugh. If only we had enough scripters to rewrite the mechanics of GST

You could lead the Idevice team by leaving the guild... Thought that was obvious? ~Fuu

I have a question does anyone else have all the GST items?
What happens when you join GST and get in the room and try to buy the gift box, does it give you anything else?

My brother was in vDragz, I was watching him playing and vDragz beat 5pa4 and for some reason they got an extra chance. Total bullcrap this GST.

it's okay, they would have lost in the finals anyway

Kelsie has all the GST items and once you got all of them you're not able to buy the box.

5pa4 lost to vDragz, I heard memo cried and they got a rematch and won.

I spoke to one of the hosts, Guri, and I asked why the 5pa4 vs vDragz match was restarted. She said, "There was a cause of bad lag in 5pa4 vs vDragz."

Quite happy with GST, my team made it to Round 3 which we were happy with but we lost to Rebellious, they sparred very well though!

Go Zorba!!!

Seriously this event just sucks, it will always bring bickering and crap by the "sparrers" and in general is a laggy, rubbisly run mess

Sadly i'm the leader of Voyage and thats the guild that i was accidently a part of the iDevice team. We thought of this while were trying to get me on focus team and I was about to give the guild to co leader and kick myself, however the admin or whatever didn't wait for us and before I got the go ahead, the match began.

Regardless, the system should be improved where leaving gst teams is as accessible as everything else. As well, I dont understand why you cannot alter your team right before GST starts. If we could, we definitely would had not been short members.

On another note, the first two teams (and I dont know the rest) that Mother went against were both short members. They faced a two man team, followed by a three man team. Srsly?

Another case of staff in charge of GST matches being morons you say? You'd think you would come to expect it since it's been reported the past 4 GSTs.
