* AWL: XyligaN, ToD and RotterdaM back out


Human duo Russian Fede- Human GG.XyligaN and France Human mouz.ToD have decided not to play the European qualifiers of the AWL Season 4 due to unforeseen circumstances.

While the Russian Human will have to attend a family function tomorrow, mouz.ToD has chosen to participate in an ESWC pre-qualifier in France and has forgone his spot. Nonetheless, the latter will be replaced by United State- Human srs.SonKiE, while XyligaN’s spot will be given to tonight’s pre-qualifier winner.

With such short notice prior to this weekend’s (March 1-2, 2008) AWL European qualifier, only four players were able to participate in this pre-qualifier. These four talented players will be play in a single elimination format with a best-of-3 system.

why is a Canadian competing for a spot in the European AWL qualifiers? is Kaki going to fly to Europe if he qualifies?

The flight is not for Europe, but for Seoul. The Final 4 of the European qual will be participating in the (online) AWL Season 4. The best four in that season will go to Seoul.

Dear god u must be FUCKING kidding me...I've been seriously curious to why naniwa never has been in AWL..?
Is it because MYM has personal issues with him?
Dear god this is just so fucking pathetic, I even heard rotterdamn wanted to give his place away...but nono that apparently "wasnt allowed" was it loser_man

I dont care what you heared and I do not care if you want naniwa in the AWL. Fact is that he is not welcome in the AWL and there is no need to add reason, but my personal reason is just 1 of the reasons.
There is also no need of starting a discussion. This decision is also supported by the players of the AWL.
Thank you

thats a lie, don't spread lie's just because 1 or 2 players support it doesnt mean all players do, why don't you hold a poll instead with public results of the 32 players and ask if they agree that its a good thing Naniwa gets banned from this competition for things he did in the past, why don't you do that instead of making a untrue statement saying its supported by the players? Didn't your mommy teach you lieing is a bad thing? Spreading lies in public is even worse, you should REALLY watch out with the things you say in public if you wanna appear as a professional tournament orga...

yeah shoot at my mommy, lol, you are the guy saying that this is a "shit "retard organisation"? oh yes, i did u a favor in adding Sting already to the qualifier.
Naniwa is not the guy who has a lot friends in Korea, he is flaming in many games and he is the guy showing bad behaviour. That is a fact, you can argue as much as you want. You are not part of this tournament anymore, this was your own choice.
I am not going to run after you and beg you to come back, I have a lot of players in my back who want to play this tour badly, and if we do not invite a gamer, it is our decision. We are the admins of this AWL Qualifier and we make the rules, you are not the guy for that. If u skip a tour with around 20 K USD pricemoney, cuz your friend is not in the tour, that is fine for me.

I am glad that I got to know the real Rotterdam. It is also about promoting yourself and you said you wanted to sign out. We accepted it, of course its not the way we wished things to happen. BUT we will not follow you and your moody attitude.

Sting is glad to take your place and he will do all he can to play good in this tournament without causing troubles.

There will be NO poll about naniwa, there will be just no Naniwa. A guy flaming Koreans in the big games, should play a Korea Tournament? You must be really kidding me. A guy who says stuff like "hey army now u can search new friends" to the newspost of the death of Tazz... there will be no way of a 2nd 3rd 4th chance. This is the last I will say about this.

Maybe you should think about stepping out of a tournament and hurting yourself, before doing various things which you might regret. You are no longer part of the tournament, so please dont interfere into any actions of this tournament. Thanks alot and have a nice day.

hahaha its so cute how you try to make me feel bad about not playing this? I don't even wanna play it, not the slightest bit, I won't regret stepping out the slightest bit, ever. I don't hurt myself at all, I've got other things to do, yet I will definately enjoy a few replays of this qualifier, don't worry!!!! :)) I never asked to come back, i never asked you to fight my decision either, why are you making up things? Honestly pretty sad, yet cute (:

I didnt shoot at your mommy, I asked if she didnt teach you not to lie, cause it's very bad to do so, even worse spreading lies in public and thats exactly what you did.

Ofcourse there will be no poll about Naniwa, cause you know what you stated earlyer is a complete lie, its not supported , maybe by a few individuels who hold a personal grudge to Naniwa as well, which is fine but not by all the players, that's exactly why you won't have this poll, that's exactly why i asked to publish one if you state things as "its supported by the players", just wanted to see you backing up your false statement, which I know you can't.

And about Naniwa & Korea, what about Duck? Duck was way worse or HEY what about Winner, flaming Sweet for wide eyed fuck to play in WEG#3 a few weeks later? And guess what, he did behave :), but yeah, awesome arguement about Naniwa who flamed a few europeans every now and then, ofcourse he would be hated in Korea, but winner making racism comments was more than welcome ^^, strong point loseman, strong point.

Oh and good to know that now I'm not a player of this tournament, I have no right to state my opinion about the organisaton anymore? ROFL thats the way to handle PR!! :D everybody who's not in, go fuck yourself I don't owe you a explaniation, way to goooooooooooooooooooooooooo :) rofl thanks for making my day and once again giving me 100% feeling I did the right thing, now I can say have a nice day as well and gl with the tournament :)))

Haha youre still pathetic loseman, the real fact here is that naniwa SHOULD be in there, as he is one of the top tier players in europe. But hey, MYM once again shows the "pro"fessional in taking some half assed players in :)
Oh and I wonder what the hell bringer is doing in there...could it be that he was in your former clan? I think so.

wow, seriously naniwa is awesome, why he is not in there is mind boggling, hes a really good european undead and would show some results, and being there is not enough naniwa replays as it is, it would be nice to finally see some of him, being my favorite undead player

also the fact that ONE reason you're keeping him out is because of personal reasons is borderline retarded

NaNiwa should play imo! Why is he not welcome? NaNiwa is more known then ieS.Sting.

Congratulations to Frozen, Sonkie and Sting who WILL QUALIFIED for the AWL.

sase said it best ( oh and btw, sase and naniwa are FAR from friends, yet he can push his personal preference aside, something the organisers of this tournament can learn a lot from ^^ ) , even if he is unmannered or used to be, in every real sport there are unmannered players as well, they don't get banned either, hey look at materazzi, what did he say about zidane's sister or whatever, yet i don't see the serie a banning him for what he did in the world cup.

New competition, naniwa did nothing wrong in this league, obviously he belongs in this league since he beat 60/70% of the players in here, yet he doesn't get the chance to proof himself as a player, proof himself as a player that he belong here, proof that he can be mannered and can be a respectable person in competiton. Moves like this totally block the grow of e-sports, there's no justice, just people with personal preferrence and if they can they will always push there will and ignore the right thing to do.

When do you guys finally understand that this is NOT physical sports. Besides that manners have been one the foundations of esports since the beginning. Crying because one of your friends is not participating and bitching MYM or losemann for the manners of naniwa (which have NOT changed) will not change anything either.

For those who wish to debate about SonKiE (American) taking part in the Europe qualifiers, look at the Europe qualifiers for Stars War where Nilknarf participated as well. This also explains why you see Turkey competing in European cups in soccer.

Naniwa was not included in the tournament for several reasons. Sure he's skilled, but his overall reputation and professionalism speaks for himself. Pretty sad to see rotti boycotting the tournament like that though ;-)

im not allowed in the tournament for a bad joke i made 1 year ago. ok. flaming koreans? the worst thing i made must be not saying GG.

Personally I think you should be in the tour, but hey you didn’t bring up a bad joke of my late friend did you. I mean you have nothing to blame here except yourself and your big mouth because you have a great lack of social intelligence. No offense, but you don’t and it’s obvious, some people just don’t have that quality. Maybe someday you will, but you know the saying "som man bäddar får man ligga" and I mean seriously someone brought up a sports event. I mean if Zidane would’ve done an interview saying that Real Madrid’s top boss late friend was a pussyhoe, he w0uld bring you hell. I am all for the equality. I don’t say that’s its right that they won’t let you partake, but you can’t be so ignorant that you don’t understand why.

A bad joke... A guy died and you make a joke about it.. thats not a bad joke thats your attitude ... thats just having no feelings, no respect, no manners and no brains!

Loseman! Good Luck with the tournament, don't let this one person ruin your big day!

Support naniwa, I think mym shouldn't hold these tournaments in future if they cant let personal issues outside of it. However if MYM will hold a another tournament in the future, I hope naniwa is already "punished" and you will get him in at that time. I give my understanding to MYM too, but thats just what I think.

Quoting NaNiwa:

Thats the biggest load of bullshit i ever heard. I have seen you flame in so many games its incredible. In one game you even made racist comments toward your korean opponent.

what game?

On EI, versus some NE i think.

if bad manners and unprofessionalism is the reason why naniwa is out of the tournament, then eric should be left out as well.
!!
(last year)  #39 luvstyle
 
manners are underrated, imo players like fagiwa should be isolated by much more organizations...

if esports wants to be taken for real, such idiots should get punished, maybe next time they think before they say shit.

I've just read what happened to TaZz, and if naniwa made a joke about that then I really hope that he'll never participate in a event (w3 and others) ever again!
