The KeSPA Saga Continues - Part 2, GoRush arc.



GoRush disqualified from OSL

Disqualified after typing 'a'





ACE's GoRush was disqualified after not even starting the second game.He was disqualified from the OSL after getting a 'forfeit loss' for both first and second set.In the first set, he typed 'ㅎㅎ' and was given a 'forfeit loss', and in the second set, right after the game started, he typed 'a' and was disqualified, as according to the rules.GoRush was hence eliminated from the OSL in such a fashion, losing both sets.Because of GoRush's disqualification, BackHo will advance to play against Tester.Source: Fomos.kr

UPDATE

Apparently, GoRush was typing something to see if his text was in Korea or English (he wanted to avoid typing 'ㅎㅎ' again). But instead of deleting it, he accidentally typed it.Some comments:

From Backho's post-game interview:



GoRush received a forfeit loss.

- I feel weird. Since the regulations were formed because of me, it almost feels like GoRush suffered a forfeit loss because of me... so I feel sorry. Because of this, even in my match against Tester I kept feeling guilty.



"Damn it Poor GoRush must be so disappointed."



"Just destroy KeSPA"



"Rules are rules, but at least use your fucking brains. This is not some elementary-school's decision making."



"Geez, wtf. What kind of rules are this? Makes starcraft dead. Fucking referees."



"Poor GoRush... is he crying?"



"I'll kill you all, KeSPA"



"e-Sports is dying..."

*spoiler alert*



i would like to request that we call kespa dogspa or at least gespa in reference to how the koreans call it 개스파 instead of 케스파, where 개 means "dog" in korean and 케 is the sound "ke".



after the last couple incidents involving kespa DQing people for stupid reasons, kespa's message board has been flooded with a lot of hate from the netizens.



here are the (loosely translated) names of some of the various threads. note that these are only some of the hundreds if not thousands of complaints.



"thanks kespa. because of you i am quitting starcraft"

"why is the kespa organization so stupid"

"what do the old guys at the top do? they have no relation with the game"

"CONGRATS: KESPA 2, PLAYERS 0"

"why do refs exist?"

"why does kespa exist?"

"what exactly do you guys do other than make money?"

"are you retards trying to get the refs killed?"

"i thought the point of kespa was to further the development of esports?"

"kespa is cancerous to esports"

"why is the punishment to all your rules a full DQ?"

"is your brain able to comprehend the word "concept"?"

"개스파"

"whats wrong with a regame?"

"you still don't offer an official apology?"

"you guys are an embarrassment"
