Good thing this wasn't admin-endorsed.  

Kind of annoying that I legit made a post saying the whole rigging colins round joke upset a few people and I immediately receive a pm from James who I assume is a friend in general saying I'm being ridiculous and dumb.

For someone who puts himself so high on the maturity scale, you could of handled things better.  

I want to join

To reiterate, this was all for fun. Why do you guys even care anymore? At this point, I'm pretty sure Colin doesn't really care anymore.

And yeah, we could have robbed him of his opportunity for success in a video game, but that doesn't mean its the end of the world.

In terms of being insta-kicked and never re-invited, I'm pretty sure that was a legitimate error and we truly meant to re-invite you.

If this really brought you emotional distress, Colin, I apologize, but to everyone else that is acting like they care, its not a big deal.

People don't understand how much logistics it takes to run a stream like this, I have to run like 5 things at one time and I had to ignore tons of PMs because i had other things to do. I could've waited 10 minutes on stream invited everyone properly but that is not fun to watch at all. If UI was better multitasking would be easier but this tournament was never supposed to be serious at all and I did my best to make it entertaining with the resources I had.

you're not being ridiculous or dumb
it's ridiculous or dumb for other people to try and dictate your level of enjoyment of something just because you're expressing a differing opinion

at the least, I figured they'd say sorry to the people who felt their time was wasted rather than going the "your opinion is invalid because it was fun" route

It was entertaining, you guys did a great job! Literally would've been perfect imo if you guys didn't purposefully mess around with any of the results.

1st round went wayyyyy longer than we wanted- we were pretty burned out by how long it took, if people really want a serious RPS tourney then we will make official rules but this was always intended to be for fun. We have had a lot of people tell us it was a lot of fun so we succeeded in that.

Next one (which is not decided) we would def do a 32 bracket since it went very fast after that but we wanted to give a bunch of people involved to have some fun since there isn't much to do  

the spar community literally getting upset over rps...
Okay yeah people got ****ed over, tbh I'd be pretty annoyed too if I was in that scenario, but end of the day it's $20 and don't complain about "wasted my time" because if you prioritised a ****ing rps tourney over irl **** then you had nothing better to "waste your time on"
just remember it's my opinion...lol sad I have to Reinforce that.

what?  

This thread is almost as entertaining as the event itself was  

I would hope that the people who let that happen never complain about the way another GST is hosted ever again. Glad I was too busy to join, would have been thoroughly annoyed if it was me who got the short end of the stick after spending hours paying attention to Graal for it.  

Anyway - i have to re-record the stream because of an audio issue so it will be up tomorrow on youtube. You can still catch it for now on twitch here:

I'll post tomorrow when it's up
