What really happened with my disqualification

[skater11]

I can hear Kung Lao saying "Learn from this".

 

[Error]

Selling size 9 mens shoes for highest bidder on Ebay, these belonged to a king.

 

[Farpafraf]

Pun intended?

Very much so.

 

[ForeverKing]

Sorry to hear that man, that truly sucks.

I guess this weekend you should just focus your attention on your YOMI team mates and help keep them in check, coach the shit out of them and get a YOMI win.

Unlucky dude.

Yeah I was emo for a while, still am but not super emo like a few hours ago. The best thing I can do right now is just support my team and try not to bring the vibe down. Which is why I'm training with my lil bro right now, maybe he'll make top 8 in my place. That would make this weekend godlike for me

 

[Insuperable]

I experienced similar pain in 2012 at MLG.

RIP smoothie 2012-2012 and $1k.

I am on King's side.

Why couldn't anyone contact forever king in time? We need Monk on this case.

I don't know -- but if you're going to fly or drive across the country for an event, and pay money to be in it, check your pool time

His phone was broken

 

[RapZiLLa54]

Sorry to hear that man, you know I would have hooked you up.

Funny if this was Jwong, Chris G or Fchamp they wouldn't had DQ'd them.

I know for a fact they would still be in it, ive seem too many tournament streams to not know this.

Chris G didn't show up for his first match and was sent to losers. Not sure what you are talking about.

Wait, why was Chris G sent to losers but King was DQed out of the tournament???

Although I am all for DQing altogether this is a pretty big discrepancy on what appears to be the same issue.

Was Forever King much later than Chris G or something?

 

[ColdBoreMK23]

Prime suspect.

I posted it earlier. King was not DQd completely. They sent him to losers first and he still could've made it in time. Unfortunately none of us knew until the last min when he was already in losers so we couldn't run to get king. King had a broken phone and we tried to get the bracket runner to hold a bit more but he couldn't. It sucks :/

Ah OK, thanks.

Chris was 15 min late


King was a hour late

 

[D-Que Beats]

Man, I'd hate to be in your shoes right now.

Omg lmao smh

 

[TopTierHarley]

If only some type of app was available

 

[GuamoKun]

Happy it's not that you were hungover.

As a drunkard that's shameful

what flavor smoothie was it?

 

[Blonde_Huntress]

:/

 

[Zephyrus]

i can almost shed a tear.

Rules are rules. Take care of your stuff. No one to blame but yourself.

It sucks to be in your position, but you could've avoided both things. Hope nothing bad happens to you at the tournament (again) though.

 

[BLACKRENEGADE]

What size shoe are you? I'd be hunting people down for sizes lol. Hope things get better.

 

[Oh My Zod]

Apparently they do not sell shoes in the state of Florida. Because I know if I was irresponsible enough to miss the opportunity to play a video game tournament with a significant money prize that someone else footed the bill for, I would definitely hang out there all day and consistently answer everyone's questions about why I was disqualified instead of purchasing new shoes . It looks like it might be time that you get voted off YOMI survivor island.

 

[Belial]

This is exactly the reasons idiots should not be allowed to run tournaments, this isnt the first time i see things like that. Honestly I'd take that "rules" excuse if tournaments ran smoothly, but every my major experience (couple of EVO's, MLG, european majors) proved that half of the times organization is chaotic. Last time at EVO I asked 3 different judges about when pools start and each of them gave different responce (one of them said "tomorrow" LOL), so I just stuck around wasting couple of hours. Inability, or more likely, lack of desire to communicate with players and have a plan for simple issues like this is a sign of complete incompetence IMO
