Good luck SRKers at SBO. Run it!

I hope that there’s no bad blood at SBO. It’d be a huge shame if we lost the opportunity to attend SBO in the future or even if this dispute caused lots of Japanese players to forgo the trip to the next EVO. I know that’s exaggerating the situation…haha. I just hope that people don’t start stereotyping American/Japanese players attitudes. Isolated incident.

Kinda sucks because I’ll be in Tokyo tomorrow. Wanted to stop off at Big Box but I doubt I’ll see anyone there. hahaha

Iyo is a clutch tourney wiz.

sabin, hope you use this as motivation to qualify for last chance slot.

Yeah Daigo’s team won. In fact Daigo didn’t even play in the final round robin of the 3 teams as the other guys beat the other two teams already.

Got the results from Chinese forum - http://forum.gamer.com.tw/C.php?bsn=00173&snA=3470&tnum=13

(The taiwanese team got OCV’ed by Mago)

based on iyo’s form he should do very damn well at sbo along with shiro

According to my understanding
American team choose the different charactor - against rule
After one of the japanese player lost ? complained

Is this right? Its kinda ashamed complaining after japanese team lost, but breaking rule is also the same thing.

I think this is not that big deal though, if americans do well on SBO, its totally fine.
Good luck on SBO. but thanks for calling us JAP, I don like it.

Well the “organisation” accepted it although there might have been some miscommunication. Who knows though.

Iyo might be the best dhalsim actually omg ! :chat:

The tournament organizer knew and ok’d the switch way in advance.

REGARDLESS, you don’t call a foul after you see how the match plays out, you bring that shit up AS IT HAPPENS.

If Art had lost anyway, they wouldn’t of said anything, or asked for a reset.

It’s just shady.

Basically, the problem was that the Japanese team didn’t bother to talk about the problems with the initial team listing until they lost against the Dhalsim.

Although the US team is probably the ones initially at fault (Not intentional really, but just misconstrued information and language/cultural barrier difficulties), the fact that they let the game go on and THEN complain was also as big of a no-no.

People are posting on the BBS that ideally, the match should have been halted after Marn was seen playing the first few matches with Viper rather than the originally reported Rufus. That was the first red flag. The next one was when Sabin stepped in with Dhalsim. That was also a red flag but wasn’t mentioned until he won.

Both parties are guilty in some sort of fashion.
Bad calls happen sadly. Would’ve been much better if this was settled in the beginning and then this wouldn’t have been brought to the stage of flaming it became then.

Thank for the Link, finally got something I can read!:yawn:

If that’s the case, doesn’t Marn have to play Rufus in SBO?

as faar as i could read marn signed in with viper ^^

Whoops. He did register under Viper.

Nevermind that other point then.

I don’t surprised with this, like you guys never watched K1.

the fact is the Western are more objectives than the Asian in term of judgement. No need to argue this because the fact is allover.

Ppl really need to stop dickriding japanese player,don’t get me wrong. I don’t meant to be disrespectful toward japanese player, I admire their skill.

remember when Project.kr (korean national cs 1.6 team) lost against MYM then they were complaining about MYM using silent running after they lost the match. In fact solo from Project.kr were also using the same technic. They got what they want a second chance on de_dust2 which known as their best homemap.

I’m also an asian so this is not a prejudice against my ownkin! It’s just the fact.

@sabin,marn:
feel sorry for you man, but hey don’t let it down.

Die Hoffnung stirbt zuletzt (Hope dies last)*

**another possibly scenario, the organizer didn’t understand you **

Hey bro, go fuck yourself.

This is a good point, maybe the organizer thought Art was actually the original player that it was uspposed to be.

So… Neko Punch Team won?

Okay I found the result… Let me translate and post it now!
