Besides, pre-registration? How it works? Can tell me? so whoever 32 register first, then the slots close? So, ppl at that time can say, oh my internet not working? oh i am busy that time? oh i am not at home that time?
Good one on seeding as well. So that means Msia always having same gamers roll and roll, i fight you, you fight me. What if there's a good one, actually he stands a chance to join, but, because seeding, he missed out? So this isn't fair to him as well. There's nothing fair to be honest. It's just that you scare you lose a chance? You can't represent Msia? What about others? If that's the case, only 16 ppl stand a chance?
What happen if you are the one who's not in the seeding? How will you feel? I am a normal player, i trained and try my best, but i only have 1/16 possibility to get a slot. Think about it, those who post all the times are the one who's on lowyat. I do believe there's ppl who's not on there too. So is this fair to those who's not on lowyat? Ok, you may say they are noob, beginner or whatever? But are you not a noob before? PPL Join just because they want to gain more experience, but even this little chance, you also don't give ppl, so is this call fair? And the so called TOP PPL like you all, every year also seeding, is it fair as well? Then might as well, we don't need to have WCG Qualifier for National Championship? Seed you all, that will be enough. Isn't that right? So we can send best of the best to Germany this year, don't need to bother about those "NOOB" or whatever it is.
Upset about In2? Why do In2 want to organize this? The reason is because In2 wants to let everyone has a chance to join eventhough they know they cannot accomodate a lot of ppl, but at least they try. If not, why will they bother? They can just send Jali, Forza and etc over to SG, why they want to find trouble themselves and let ppl complain about them being stupid? Ridiculous? Do you think organizer will feel nice? It's like Hey, you this gamer, you are so stupid, do you feel nice? do you? i am asking you! whoever you are...
You all think about it, don't just know how to complain. Every reasons have their own pros and cons. You all just keep telling me about the advantage of seeding? what about disadvantages? Do you all really ever think about that? Don't tell me there's none.. it's f*king bullshit if you tell me that..
Before Eddy posted about the seeding, why there's no one mention about that? Well, i did not say Eddy's suggestion is not good, however, what's the point? Like you all said, choose best of the best? Or should i just say it's just a selfish thought about ownself? Why do i only see those who knows themselves confirm get a slot one keep posting about seeding? Can i refer that as selfish? Can i? If not let me know pls, i wud love to accept ur feedback.
Thanks and above is just my opinion, welcome to discuss about it, and it's nothing related with In2 at all. =)
Naka posted a similar comment like above at Multiplay and below is the same reply I wrote for it.Ron, everybody wants only the best to represent the country to Singapore. That's all. We are not upset with In2 as a whole, we even applauded In2 initiative to held an open qualifier. We just upset about the lucky draw system, which to us have many flaws.
While I do agree with the disadvantages of seeding but it's down to this : if a player deserve to win, he will win it. All of the so-called "pro" have been through it before. Relatively unknown and then beat everybody - one person at a time. Seeding is just an alternative, not the only solution. Every other alternative have their flaws too, but they are still way better than the lucky draw system.
The online pre-registration method that I had in my mind was different from yours. It's similar to the new lucky draw based system but instead it's to be held online and few weeks prior to the event. If a player or a team doesn't get chosen, they don't have to waste their effort especially in terms of financial to be there at the event. This holds true for participants that comes from outstation or people that canceled or took leave from work to join the event.
The reason why nobody actually give much feedback about the registration system before In2 implement the lucky draw is because the first comes first serve method was better than the lucky draw method. Sure, there is a big problem for outstation players who faces unconfirmed spots. But, with lucky draw method also, they are still facing unconfirmed spots because the draw is held only one day earlier before the competition starts and by right, everybody is already here in KL.
That's why the original method was better than the lucky draw system. Whoever wants it so bad will do whatever is possible to register including lining up at the registration counter as early as possible. That's pretty fair to me, IMHO.
Before we go on further on this issue, regardless of my writings and replies here, it will not effect Multiplay's coverage on WCG Malaysia and future In2 related events. We are doing our job, you are doing your job and together, we are doing counter-check balance for the benefit of Malaysian gaming scene.
