soO rank 32 and hyun creeping in from OSC partnered tournaments ;(

[eCKoa`ProzeR]

That's quite a lot of Koreans for the top 32... Hope more foreigners are able to squeeze in

[PSiArc]

Ranks 33-34 will have a good chance to get in the finals as replacements I guess?
Because Spear probably won't be able to join due to his conscription mid December as he stated in the interview and Frust seems inactive.

soO is falling out, not a regular participant. Unless he has an active few final weeks, he likely won't qualify for finals.

HyuN is on the raise though!

Koreans are pretty good!

A lot of them will likely finish 21-32nd, which will see them start in the lower bracket Bo5 Single Elim matches, while the more regular participants who place/win a lot of our events will finish 1-20th, and earn themselves a Double Elim spot starting in the upper bracket.

Will Apocalypse keep his spot in top 32, with the news of him matchfixing and being banned from multiple tournaments?

There will be a confirmation period, and if players fail to do so, then yeah, spot will go to the next highest rank.

For now yes.

My thoughts on that issue.

The allegation seems a little strange, why would he try and involve another player in match fixing? Couldn't he just pocket money himself and 'throw games'.
I've never had a problem with Apoc in all the tournaments i've run over 5 years. Nor to my knowledge has any OSC partnered tournament organiser. Those who know him also seem to say it would be very out of character.
Not really seeing a lot of definitive proof either. Money transfers, replays, direct statements from those involved, etc.
I think cool heads should prevail, don't instant 'ban' him, especially if your event or region has no association with those involved. Let people look into it. See what truth comes out.
Innocent until proven guilty. If he is guilty, yeah fair enough, should be punished.

We will monitor his results closely, but won't ban him without clear proof, or for whatever may have happened in events that have no association with ours.

Quick Comments

	BSRK.Fiend:	Nice Nice, was just putting it out there before someone complains they miss top 32 cause of him :DDD
	syfIce:	He was banned by 2 orgs? for matchfixing what proof more do we need?
