i would like to say a thing or two about the competition. i am not a contestant of the competition but just a mere spectator. so forgive me if i insulted anyone somehow.
firstly, while drafting a match, there is of course alot of ppl around. i mean its all right to have ppl there but seriously is it OKAY for other ppl to help draft the hero? come on. ppl are having a competition here. its definitely unfair for their opponent. others should have no say but just look at them draft instead of helping them out. im sure some would say, so what if they have ppl helping them, they are the ones that are playing. so pls let me say that those helping the team draft might be ppl with experience and therefore they can guide them somehow if u know what i mean. A competition is a competition. and isnt SMM is quite a big comp? come on. BE PROFESSIONAL.
i find these type of competitions are really organized inefficiently. marshalls are not really doing a great job. i know that most contestants are friends with the marshalls but come on, you know marshalls should be fair. they should not offer any opinions while they are in game or actually on that day itself. they are the MARSHALL for god sake.
ppl also should not be allowed to enter the place itself unless allowed by the players. others are as usual noisy as they keep talking bhind but friends understand that the contestants need their space and silence. others should also b able to understand. why the hell are you making so much noise? do you like it when you are the one sitting there and there is like a fly buzzing at your ear when you are playing? jeez. show them some respect and stfu.
i shall say again im sorry if i offended anyone but this is one of my opinions only as a Spectator.
For Mr Anonymous:
We always appreciate comments from others. If u
really intend to complain u should send an official complain letter to SMM company and not just to mention for the sake of fun here.
For ur first point:
Are you really sure they are really other people that help them to draft or are they from their team? We do have a thing call reserve aka substitute or it might be their team mates from their group since some teams tend to have more members since their sponsor willing to sponsor more people! Would u say that we shouldn't even let them discuss with their teammates? Do you have any wonderful opinions to help us since you would like to comment bout this matter. We do hope you have since any comment without a suggestion is consider as flaming if that is what ur purpose is.
For ur second point: There is a thing call figure of speech. We dont offer opinion towards the teams! We might discuss between marshal but we definitely dont offer opinion. If any people really do see a marshal do so u can report to the Chief Marshal and the CM will take an action towards that particular marshal. "Marshal might offer or just a figure of speech say "Just take KOTL or meepo" but that is just a figure of speech because sometimes the teams tend to pick too long because they still haven get accustomed to the new rules yet so we were trying to be understanding and try not to force them too much to enable the team to perform better so they wont have too much of regrets when they finish their game.
For ur third point: I would really doubt if you were at the scene itself. We have already done our best to make the environment for the players to have a good gaming environment because due 2 a huge numbers of spectators and teams we have to ask for the spectators to watch far away from the gaming place. Especially on Sunday we provide a place for spectators to watch the game on other pc. And most of the time the people who make the most noise is the players themselves and we do give them warning for that. Sorry dudes no offence for teams I give warning 2 cause it's my job,

hope u guys wont be offended

.
If u mean for the other customer of the CC that is non spectator who speak loudly when they when in the CC, we really cant do anything bout it. The CC is kindly enough to sponsor us a place to held the event so we definately can be so rude as to chase away their customer or can we????
If you are really not satisfied with the situation you can always send in an official letter to SMM company and if you really just wish for us to improve and not just flame about it then we would appreciate that you could give us some wonderful suggestion rather than just complain.
It's always easy for people to complain when their not thinking in other people's shoe but to complain and to give us a suggestion and ideas to improve that would benefit all and we would regard you as a reputable person.I would deeply apologize if I hurt anyone's feeling.
