It appears that some unfortunate scheduling problems have occurred in the April 13th NASL match between
White-Ra and
July. As a result, July has been awarded a 2-0 forfeit victory in their match. NASL explained the decision as follows:
We
hope this post will explain our decision to award a forfeit win to
July. White-Ra informed us that he would be at the Dreamhack
Invitational on Tuesday April 12th, which conflicted with his NASL game
vs July. We knew there would be a problem only if he made it to the
final, which he did.
I asked the Dreamhack organizers if they would
keep one computer up for White-Ra to play his match, and they declined,
understandably, as they had to pack up their equipment and shut off the
internet. We discussed postponing it, but that is something we really
can’t do with such an aggressive broadcast schedule.
SjoW had a
similar situation to White-Ra as he was also participating in the event.
SjoW informed us that there was a LAN center close by to the Dreamhack
venue that the matches could be played from. SjoW managed to make
arrangements to show up in order to play his match. After two emails and
a phone call to White-Ra, I heard no response.
After four hours of
waiting, we gave July the choice to take a free win or reschedule.
Understandably, July chose to take the win, after waking up at 4:00 am
to play his match and waiting patiently for 4 hours for White-Ra to
become available.
Because we had been in communication with
White-Ra, we extended our 45 minute grace period to 4 hours. We are very
sorry to both White-Ra, July, and the fans for this situation but it
would be unfair at this point to allow a reschedule after July waited so
long.
간략하게 요약하면
드림핵 토너먼트 화이트라가 결승까지 올라가버리는 바람에
스케쥴이 꼬여서 NASL 경기를 못해서
박성준 선수가 새벽 4시부터 4시간 동안 기다렸지만 결국
연락이 두절되어서
박성준 선수에게 결정권을 주었고 (스케쥴 다시 잡던지, 부전승을 챙기던지)
박성준 선수는 새벽 4시부터 4시간동안 기다렸기 때문에 부전승을 챙겨갔다고 합니다,
NASL측도 그게 옳다고 생각한다고 하구요
재밌는 경기가 될뻔 했는데 못 봐서 아쉽네요
