I disagree that upholding the integretiy was the main reason behind the decision.
#1 - The ref should have forfeited them on the spot if it's such a horrible infraction
#2 - There was no due dilligence or thought put into the decision to forfeit. It was an imediate decision made by a bias admin
Look at the results of the poll, it's not like i'm the only one in the world who feels the mm1 has no effect on the game. This was a perfect chance for the league to fix a rule that should be edited. I'm upset because only a few admins were consulted, and I really don't think Gibb watched the demos, and if he did, there's no way he felt the mm1 effected the game, so it should have been a perfect time to change the rule, something that would have happened if it was a clan other than eR33t, against a clan other than ch1ll. All parties involved had to please XB on this decision. I'm sure he told them to rule how they felt, but in their mind they didn't want to do something not status quo, even if it be correct. And that is the problem I have. The lack of out of the box thinking. Everyone has the people they hate, the clans they hate, and can't make a fair decision.
I for one hate team i, but if it was them vs ch1ll and this identical situation, I'd be saying the same things, without a bias, simply because I don't find it fair at all. That one person can't put aside a bias to make a correct rulinig. Judges have to do it all the time, yet our admins can't. I think it's time new admins be saught if thats the case.
ps i don't really hate you guys skater <3
but I really couldn't think of any other teams in pbcup.
