Regarding the IXL and ToR match

The issues at play where

a) The team captain did not show and a replacement captain was not given to either ToR or myself until just before the walkover time
b) The team captain was alleged to be BM to members of ToR on multiple occasions
c) IXL player LateBloomer was sent out as instead of his approved league race of . LateBloomer managed to higher then finish as in the past so this could be seen as an attempt to play a higher league player.

After talking to both captains and reviewing evidence the following decisions have been made:

• The match between ToR and IXL will be abandoned and treated like it did not occur
• IXL have been given an official warning for the incident, the next will result in forfeit
• IXLDrown is not permitted to play or lead IXL for the remainder of the tournament

This decision was made due to several factors:

There was no attempt by IXLDrown to apologise for his actions towards the ToR captain or their players
There was no apology given on behalf of IXL to Suipr and the ToR team
BM is not acceptable and is definitely intolerable from a captain (even if they are a stand in)

As a note all players must play as the races their ladder ranks indicate or they were signed up as. If you wish to play as a different race you must get that approved by myself.

This means that the bracket is how Group A will finish:

1st - FaDe - 2 wins
2nd - ToR - 1 win (even map score)
3rd - TCP - 1 win (-1 map score, 12 map wins)
4th - IXL - 1 win (-1 map score, 7 map wins)

If anyone wishes to discuss the decision or anything around it, feel free to PM me, but I consider the matter now closed.

Semi finals are tomorrow. Best of luck everyone!
