Official Statement from the organizers:



Over the past few days, the G-1 Western Qualifiers has been the subject of DDoS attacks from unknown sources, which has caused players to continuously disconnect and made it impossible to carry out the competition. In light of the current situation, 17173 has decided to postpone the Western Qualifiers while waiting for a technical solution, possibly from Valve.

Incredibly embarrassing for the Western scene as a whole... hopefully this will not be the last Western qualifiers for G-1 League.



Gotta think that barring some sort of drastic measure, the games will have to be played secretly, then the replays will be casted.

Steam has been exposed with security issues that allows a person to get your IP. So on that front. Valve can patch it asap and prevent it from happening.

AFAIK, you can just set Steam to offline or remove people from your friends list, and from there get your ISP to refresh the address. It's an issue, but it isn't the crux of the matter.

Aui's at the least was acquired through steam - even if you decline a voice chat a person can get your IP. Aui wasn't able to get his ISP to change his IP.



But yes, it's fair to say that most of the problems probably did originate with skype.



edit - Also the bet scenario sounds incredibly far fetched to me. Aui's at the least was acquired through steam - even if you decline a voice chat a person can get your IP.

He was saying it was possible, not that that is where his IP was taken from. Not that it matters, there are plenty of places where pro players IP's could have been taken from.

It's the players' responsibility to avoid this, I doubt valve will make such a big change to route the voice messages through their servers, that would reduce the quality of calls for many people who don't live near their few datacenters in the world.
