I feel i need to post here as i am the one who posted to accept BalloonSPR in SEACL.
First of all, all the decisions are taken within admins, most of the time we're not all in agreement but we always take the decision of the majority.
Decisions of admins:
In a first time we authorized/refused korean players in SEACL according to admin's judgement only, and there were drama because there were no clue for clans to know which player was eligible or not.
We set some conditions, drama again because we shouldn't quantify the number of ladder game to play and that admins should only invite players.
Admins always have to take that kind of decisions. If we are proven wrong with this season, we will make everything possible to rectify it for next season. There will be a feedback thread at the end of the season to help us improve.
This thread is a perfect tool for us to help us which decision to take for next season .
Player impact/entry restriction:
One player play ONE game for ONE match. It means that one player will only represent 20% of the match. There is no all-kill, so the impact to have or not a good player to play against is reduced.
As soon as you restrict the entry to a tournament, you cannot guaranty that the restrictions will be respected. A player can still borrow the account of his friends to play under his name. So to resume you can refuse any player, there will always be a way for them to play in it.
Last point is a bit harsh, i hope no one will be ofended, but i am sure that if we were training instead of wasting our time making drama, we would beat those koreans. They are not more talented than SEA, they just play more.
