hallo fair bleibenCiele -> bad ass -> Lowgock ->Mazar
The single largest decline in prestige in the history of Smogon Tournaments.
Ghosting is unarguably bad. However, Mazary obviously didn't get ghosted threw every game in this GS so instead of just discrediting him from everything, he should get some credits for his win.
Other than that, many previous winners of this tournament and others got ghosted toward trophies so instead of calling Mazary cheater just for the pleasure of discrediting him, we should rather admit he did a decent job overall, specially that his so called ghoster doesn't even look like any renowned player on smogon.
I partially agree with this. big fishes never get caught unless theres overwhelming evidence of the cheating (hi bloo). for example, there was very CLEAR evidence that user gr8astard was heavily involved in the Style drama last year and played a very active role in facilitating every of Style's win. Subsequently he should have undergone Bloo's same treatment or at least a severe ban from tournaments. However, becos of the close relationship he had with most of the tders at the time and becos of the large support he had from many respectable players such as aim and ctc (and despite it wasnt even the 1st time gr8astard displayed very dirty behaviour), he wasnt given any punishment for what he did and was even allowed to join spl few months later. Clearly not everybody gets the same treatment. Little fishes like u and i can do very little about this thoughGhosting is unarguably bad.

- hugohe had from many respectable players such as ctc
oh yes I didkoko had no idea how right he would really be...
i mean i'm p sure even before grand slam everyone thought he'd never played a tournament game for anything without getting ghosted, so not sure why slam would be any differentHowever, Mazary obviously didn't get ghosted threw every game in this GS
if the td team was to act on rumours alone half of this site would be banned by now and who knows how many of those would be unjustIsa said:if anyone has logs or screenshots or otherwise any proof of ghosting that they feel like sharing with the td team you know how to reach us
the best way to change the culture is to act.
