Thread: RELIC'S WPC Change of plan 11 Sep 2016, 15:17 PM Jump back to quoted post11 Sep 2016, 11:55 AMalcoholic y I as a spectator fail to see the benefits of a final in Vancouver and a online final would still be a live final anyways. The whole idea of the milestone 5 seems a little stupid to me. and if it fails like it did one should not Stick to the strange idea to fly people half way around the world for a online game It's actually a really nice gift to the players in this community. It created a big prize for the community to buy skins for (Which they have) and also for the players to enjoy and give them a reason to fight hard and give us good games. Anyone who didn't like the idea didn't need to participate In: Events Central
Thread: RELIC'S WPC Change of plan 11 Sep 2016, 11:43 AM There's plans and things made for finalists to fly out. The event was organised with the potential of a live final in mind which was always the plan that it was going to be hit. You wouldn't see ESL cancel a live event because a player couldn't turn up. People's entire schedules can't just be thrown about for 1 person. A lot of people have put effort into making this tournament happen, and a live final is deserved. This entire situation could have been avoided by either reading emails, or making contact when we found out Milestone 5 was reached before the quarter finals Relic have already said in their official statement that they are giving Noggano a chance to win an equal amount of money in another tournament later this year as a #1 seed for a World Champion tournament (spoliers) as further compensation fo an unfortunate event.

Thread: RELIC'S WPC Change of plan 10 Sep 2016, 22:37 PM We actually announced when Milestone 5 was reached on stream that the finals would be pushed back due to this achievement. So I don't personally every know of a situation where players would have 1 week to get things sorted. That would be ridiculous to do. I don't think by the sounds of it, Noggano could get a visa/passport sorted this year. I personally just feel the best justification we can give is try to get Noggano a chance to play for the money still, and I do know that's something being discussed at the moment. In: Events Central
Thread: RELIC'S WPC Change of plan 10 Sep 2016, 22:33 PM Jump back to quoted post10 Sep 2016, 16:13 PMAmiPolizeiFunk Relic originally announced that the finals would take place on Sept.11th, one week after the Quarters/Semis. Thinking that two players could be flown from anywhere in the world to Vancouver with less than 7 days to arrange the trips was a ludicrous notion in the first place. We all saw problems with this coming from a mile away. To then go and cite some fine print in the rules to DISQUALIFY NOGGANO for not being able to satisfy this condition is completely and utterly unfair and unreasonable. The original plan/rules said ONE WEEK. What is it now, one month? A month in a half? Things are being changed along the way, so you can't go and say "well he broke the terms and conditions of the rules" because you are changing those rules as we go. Basically, Noggano should not be blamed for poor planning on Relic's part. He deserves the second place prize at minimum. This isn't correct, The finals were 11st September provided Milestone 5 was never reached. If Milestone 5 was reached then the fall back date was a month afterwards to allow players time to organise things. In: Events Central
Thread: RELIC'S WPC Change of plan 10 Sep 2016, 15:21 PM Jump back to quoted post10 Sep 2016, 14:21 PMSiberian Yeah, let's break it down since you're incapable of being neutral about this. If you're that desperate to hold the finals in person with both contestants then simply postpone the tournament which is not ideal but if you give such late notice to the parties involved then Relic, Kyle or whoever organised this rushed mess should have anticipated such a possibility. I think you'll find i'm the most neutral person ever when it comes to things like this. I've never put any kind of argument forward with an agenda in mind. The 'breach' as it would be called is that technically Noggano would have known that there was 0% chance of him getting a passport in time and therefore he was not eligible to enter the tournament. That sounds harsh, and I would never say don't let Noggano play, but maybe this shouldn't have been left till the Finals to come to light when all these plans have already been made and put in place. There was no 'late notice' to people involved. You participated yourself and you would have known that from the start of the tournament it was said that if milestone 5 was reached you would need to play in Vancouver. Anybody who didn't prepare for that, clearly didn't value themselves high enough to be positions 1 or 2. The whole notion that Milestone 5 wasn't going to get hit is just people's opinion. It was always likely to hit milestone 5 so this isn't just something that should have been looked over. Relic have their own schedule and dates. They shouldn't have to be subject to this embarrassment of changing schedules and things they have made specific plans for because players have not upheld their side of it. I've already said this, but there was already a written plan in place in case anything like this happened which was that disqualification would take place, so actually this event WAS anticipated as something that could happen and that's the plan that's being followed currently. I personally think Noggano should be allowed to fight for 3rd and hopefully that's something that comes around. There's just no way there's going to be rescheduling or stuff like that. I don't see how that can happen In: Events Central
Thread: RELIC'S WPC Change of plan 10 Sep 2016, 13:52 PM Jump back to quoted post10 Sep 2016, 13:43 PMI984 Noggano is 2nd place at least, so $ 1.000 for him He forfeits so Devm wins $ 2.000 Legit 3rd place match for the rest of the money Problems solved. That would mean, 1. Not having a finals 2. DevM not being able to receive his trip to Vancouver 3. A situation where you give a player $1000 for effectively bailing on a tournament match I don't think that's quite solved it In: Events Central
Thread: RELIC'S WPC Change of plan 10 Sep 2016, 13:48 PM Jump back to quoted post10 Sep 2016, 13:30 PMSiberian "Disqualifying a person who legitimately reached the final" I am glad to see priorities and fairness is at the top of Relic's agenda; wouldn't hurt to invest that money more wisely than flying favourites. The fact that he is genuinely disqualified is just hilarious and anyone that thinks that's either fair or a "necessary compromise" is just on full damage control at this point. Weird comment, but let's break it down... "Disqualifying a person who legitimately reached the final" - Incorrect, he reached the finals in breach of tournament T&C's technically. "Flying favourites"??? You're speaking nonsense, Noggano is still able to fly if he can get things sorted which fingers crossed, can happen. The issue is that if he can't go, third and fourth place will need to fight for that spot. Relic haven't 'picked' someone to fly they are presenting options to the remaining top 3 contestants in the situation that Noggano can't uphold the conditions, you're talking bulls***t "anyone that thinks that's either fair or a "necessary compromise" is just on full damage control at this point" It's entirely fair based on the rules presented to players at the very start of the tournament and quite frankly the only way to get out of this situation without Relic doing what they see fit. Instead of Relic picking and choosing what they want, which is something you've all criticized routinely, they will just go with the set out rules that everyone was aware from at day 1. If you guys complain about that, then you need to question what the hell you actually want lol The situation is incredibly unfortunate however what is definitely unfair, is either scrapping current 3rd and 4th place to let 6 people fight for places again (effectively redoing semi-finals and potentially 3 and 4 losing out) or taking away the third place prize from players who have been put in this situation through no fault of their own. What would be nice is for Noggano to have tomorrow's match as a fight for second place, and then Noggano get's at least, a chance to shoot for 3rd place on another weekend. In: Events Central
