The alliance gets the initial entry fee/deposit back I would assume since we are no longer allowed to participate within said tournament. Most lottos/drawings/bingo/what-have-yous that end with the results being null & void return the initial ante to the players involved.

You are still upset since your Venture didn't popped. Don't worry, I have 2 people as of last count over 200. (I could have only wished right now to use 9000s.... because.)

So CODE. is getting not only banned, but permabanned from the tournament for forfeiting a single match, something that literally dozens of teams have done before with no penalty?

The butthurt, it's glorious.

Best part of this is the inability of CODE. to understand what the difference is between "tell CCP 30 mins before start that we forfeit" and "log off at match start without a word".

Maybe you should read the rest of the article.

"As a matter of fact, many teams have forfeited by failing to show up for the Alliance Tournament. Like, a lot. It has been happening literally since day one. After the first day of the very first Alliance Tournament, all the way back in 2005, CCP announced:"

It does!

You can see a heavy shitstorm blowing on them on their page.

The comparison to other forfeiters is, that the didn't even talked to CCP about what happend and just stayed hidden. The AT is a serious E-Sport Event. It is not a Kindergarden play for some Wannabees and their delusions. Even without being paid something this is reason enough to throw them out of this AT. Considering what they tried to pull in the forums and on their blog, expanding it to a permabann is logical. Since there is Sponsorship. there is serious Buisiness.

Nobody fears the code anymore.

Greetings everyone!

Keeping everything crystal clear, I wanted to open a topic on this subject.

CODE. did not show up for their scheduled match against Red vs. Blue nor did they make any attempt to inform the tournament organizers of their status. We have decided to interpret their actions as a sign of resignation from the tournament. As such they have been disqualified from Alliance Tournament XII and CODE. will not be able to enter future Alliance Tournaments.

Circle-Of-Two will thus get a bye in their scheduled match against CODE. on Sunday the 24th and all subsequent matches that day will happen 20 minutes earlier than initially scheduled.

Please keep discussions about this topic in this thread.

Thanks!


So does this mean you're changing your name to "CCP Upset"?

"CCP Butthurt" would be more appropriate.

It's so embarrassing to see people in charge at CCP overreacting like this...

I don't know. From a distance, this "glorious butthurt" seems present only in the posters in this forum frothing to have every punishment imaginable levied against the whole CODE. alliance, and CCP Gargant in the heavy-handed punishment for the most minor of infractions. For the most part, CODE. itself doesn't seem to care. So little in fact, they didn't bother to show up.

I guess this lack of caring is what really rankles the AT = elite E-Sport crowd (see: La Rynx below) and perhaps CCP. But it seems that most of the tears here are of the regular run-of-the-mill anti-New Order variety, flowing as the result of a rather unremarkable forfeit among many in the history of the Alliance Tournament.

CODE members have a history (albeit a short history in the long history of EVE) of falling somewhere in the camp of "actually trying to disrupt the gameplay of others" and confusing it as a form of RP. A few are very aware of what they are doing and just enjoy the attempts at circumventing EULA and TOS.

When punishment looms, or is handed down, they then get their jollies trying to either a) act like punishment was the intended goal all along, or b) they are victims of CCP "violating their rights unfairly".

There are a few among the group that I'm amazed actually spout off "b" and really do think this. Roll

It's amazing that anyone gets their kicks trying to destroy the gameplay of others - even here in EVE. Driving players away from this game is not smart on any level. Hell, to that, it's even more amazing to me that CCP doesn't just bring the hammer down on the whole BS with more regularity.

The difference is, that the other forfeiters entered a discussion with CCP. CODE. did not. Thats the reason why i call it kindergarden style. The whole code actions turned out to be childrens play when they first told ppl that they would fight and show their strength to every one and then not even appear to the fight. Giving every one interested or not a lot of excuses what they did and why they won, even claiming to be manipulating the AT or suggest they did gave up because of some freighter gank.

Permaban harsh?
It could have been very very easily avoided just by talking to CCP.
CODE. didnt.
CCP gives permaban, because suddenly noone from CODE. feels responsible.

Those are just codie-delusions.
There are no tears for codies anymore, only sardonic laughter about a group of PvP waanabees.

The laughter is always on the loser.
And i don't need to clarify, but just so:
Code lost.

7o, We surely could.

I am not much into the whole CODE. drama really. I find it entertaining to follow both sides of the "argument" and the mudslinging going back and forth. It is all really not worth losing sleep over.

CCP has the right to do whatever they want but when one group is harshly punished for something and others are not it strikes me as pretty unfair.
