What really happened with my disqualification

[RM Jonnitti]

Idk man. I understand if I was holding up the bracket, yeah DQ me. Makes perfect sense. But if somebody being late doesn't hold up the tournament, them being late made no difference they didn't have any matches anyway and you still DQ them.... Not even send me to loser's bracket just straight up DQ out of the tournament... That's pretty damn harsh

i agree with this because i personally don't care if the tournament runs on time or not, as long as it gets done and everyone gets to play, but this is why tournaments dont run on time. even though you being late didn't make a difference to the tournament, there has to be some sort of standard. i do find it kind of ridiculous that they just straight up eliminated you instead of put you in losers. i also find it kind of strange that nobody on the team told you that your shit was going to start.

That really sucks man, but take it as a learning experience.








Put a GPS tracker on your shoes.

 

[Map the Soul]

as specialist briggs would say - "you get no sympathy points"

 

[SaltShaker]

I get the whole "rules are rules" thing, but there should be some sort of discretion used. Losers at least, but not DQ.

 

[RM_NINfan101]

As much as it sucks, It's good to see that at least he knows that the rules are rules and that he learned from it and wasn't bashing the TOs.

That is awful about the shoes though man...

 

[MsMiharo]

Why direct DQ and not sent to losers? I get that rules are rules I'm just wondering why they are that harsh.

 

[EndofGameBoss]

Someone stole your shoes? People are fucked.

 

[JDM]

Uh... if he missed check in there's no reason to DQ him form the entire tournament that's stupid. Especially since it didn't hold the tournament up.

Complete BS honestly. He paid money to travel and got DQ'ed just cause he missed check in? Sure getting sent to losers is one thing but completely DQ'ed? eh.

Sorry bout your shoes too jeez.

 

[ResetReptile]

Maybe your brother will win and can buy you some shoes.

 

[cR Xarakamaka]

man these shoes i randomly found by the side of the swimming pool the other day are really nice and very comfortable! . lifes looking up for me

 

[Juggs]

Maybe your brother will win and you can buy you some shoes.

This is the best post, LOL

 

[Zoidberg747]

The shoe thing does suck, I feel you on that.

 

[UsedForGlue]

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.

 

[Tim Static]

Someone jacked your kicks? Damn, I'd go buy some cheap flip flops or something, that sucks.

He's got all kinds of eSports Fight Money. Get him to the nearest Foot Locker/Finish Line LOL

 

[HomeLee1121]

King was not completely dq'd. He was sent to losers first b/c he did not check in and show up for his first match. Me MIT and smarrgasm were talking to the bracket runner to see how long king had. We fought for him and the bracket runner said another 15min then came back and said that they can't wait that long. MIT said he couldn't call king b/c his phone was broken. Sorry to hear about the shoes man.

 

[Eh SnOwY]

Well... on the bright side your brother is doing hella good work =) Cheer for him letss goo FK JR

 

[roosTakk]

Stealing someones shoes the day before the tournament is the new meta

 

[Linkuei82]

Learn from this.

Sucks about your shoes though.

 

[Zebster]

I feel for you on the shoes, that's unnacceptable, but after all the "top player privilege" stuff that goes on in some other tournaments, I'm glad to hear about some tournaments cracking down on keeping things fair for everyone.

Not to say that you would be a person who tries to take advantage like that.

 

[Farpafraf]

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

 

[ForeverKing]

Maybe, but letting you back in would negatively affect the reputation of CEO as an on-time tournament and would effectively tell the world it is OK to be late to your pool as long as your match hasn't been called yet.

You know I love you King, but if you made this thread looking for sympathy - it aint coming.

True. I've seen people late at other tournaments and get away with it, but I shouldn't have expected the same treatment. They definitely have every right to make the decision they did.

It's all good I learn from my mistakes and will never let it happen again. Just kinda sucks the rest of this weekend

 

[TH3DISTURBED1]

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

Pun intended?

 

[swp22]

Unfortunate but you'll learn from it.

The whole shoe thing is messed up though.

 

[THTB]

Someone jacked your kicks? Damn, I'd go buy some cheap flip flops or something, that sucks.

That reminds me of when I literally had ended up messing my shoes up to an unwearable extent before Season's Beatings 2011 and had to wear taped up flip flops for the entire time I was there.

 

[trustinme]

For the love of Christ,give the man back his shoes.
