Originally by: Desiree Mabuto Both parties involved should be disqualified. The tournament looses sense if you can buy your victory.
Good thing that they haven't won anything yet, thenā ——— “If you're not willing to fight for what you have in ≡v≡… you don't deserve it, and you will lose it.” — Karath Piki |

Originally by: Destination SkillQueue Great fight
Who the hell cares how people get the points during qualifiers. Not to mention the tournament point system allows for this kind of strategic decision making. Hydra just sold Agony the chance of making it to the finals, while their chances of getting there are very good regardless if they won or lost, since they killed almost all enemy ships.
The finals have so good rewards and you gain so much prestige from winning, that I don't think anyone can afford to buy their way to victory there and I don't think the opposition is going to make a realistic offer there anyway.
^^ This. The amount of butthurt over what may just be the EVE:iest move ever just makes it more hillarious.
Agony did not buy a victory ų they bought points that probably won't help much considering how much they got spanked. Hydra sold points they didn't need considering what kind of match they'll have next time and how much they spanked in this one. As much as the tournament is EVE combat boiled down and refined; that kind of qualifying-match tactic is EVE politics boiled down and refined.

Originally by: Tiger's Spirit Oh man this is tournament, not backstabbing, stealing from other teams and spectators.
Sure it is. It always has been. This meta-game caper just happened right in front of the camera, unlike some of the things that have happened in the past. ——— “If you're not willing to fight for what you have in ≡v≡… you don't deserve it, and you will lose it.” — Karath Piki |

Originally by: Dextr Methorafan The devs supporting this crap just makes it worse, don't expect any increase in participation or viewing in the future. We want a contest not a craptest.
Again, you do realise that this is nothing new? Meta-gaming and back-hand deals have been part of the tournament since roughly foreverā ——— “If you're not willing to fight for what you have in ≡v≡… you don't deserve it, and you will lose it.” — Karath Piki |

Originally by: Spacepunk Aerowolf Who is this "we" you speak of?
We "the players" the "spectators".
You should probably spell that with and "I" instead thenā ——— “If you're not willing to fight for what you have in ≡v≡… you don't deserve it, and you will lose it.” — Karath Piki |

Originally by: Hun Jakuza + Dextr Methorafan and other one who dont like this sh*t in tournament. This not "I" this "WE"
Then you should say "us two", not "we the players" because you simply don't represent the players as a group. Tough. ——— “If you're not willing to fight for what you have in ≡v≡… you don't deserve it, and you will lose it.” — Karath Piki |

Originally by: Tiger's Spirit Just from first 2 page from this thread.
Oh and wait. Yes this guys not Hydra alts.
Irrelevant. You're still not "the players" or "the spectators". ——— “If you're not willing to fight for what you have in ≡v≡… you don't deserve it, and you will lose it.” — Karath Piki |

Originally by: Tiger's Spirit You can read the names dear Hydra alt ?
Oh dear. You've figured that you have no argument, I take it since you're down to only being able to call people "hydra alts"
Awwwwā shnookums. It's ok. You just have to accept this as a fact of life. You see, just like you can find a list of people who didn't know that this is what happens in the tournaments, you can look through the thread and see people who loved it because it's so quintessentially EVE. And no, I'm afraid they're not hydra alts either ų in fact, at this point, I'm guessing that the Hydra players will quite proudly show off their alliance. This is another thing you have to accept.
So yes, your list is irrelevant, because it's just "some players" not "we players". And that's a fact. ——— “If you're not willing to fight for what you have in ≡v≡… you don't deserve it, and you will lose it.” — Karath Piki |

Originally by: Tiger's Spirit Oh you changed your chit-chat.
Nope.
Quote: First thinking: "you" not "we", now "some".
No. First "I" instead of "we" because "we" was connected to "āthe players". You're trying to redefine what I meant (or you've forgotten it) and trying to attack that strawman. Unfortunately, that still makes it a strawman.
Hun tried to redefine it to, but figured out that his "we" was already shattered, and sensibly left it alone. ——— “If you're not willing to fight for what you have in ≡v≡… you don't deserve it, and you will lose it.” — Karath Piki |
