As nearly everyone knows by now there has been a log of
MattyBrollic being ghosted by
njnp,
BradSharp and
Snowtop in his game one of the series vs WhiteQueen for OST back in february floating around.
While the log by itself was not enough evidence for a decision, it led to further investigation by the TD team. When confronted, some of the involved parties admitted to it, while others denied and got as far as providing screenshots that contradicted the text log, implying it was faked. With the screenshots, we looked further and found minor inconsistencies that showed that the text log was indeed altered in several places, though from the reactions we got from some of the involved users initially, we believed many elements were still true to what had happened. The users then refused to share any more screenshots that they could easily access and would instantly free them of all accusations, which obviously made us even more suspicious.
Further investigation then led us into finding irrefutable evidence that the ghosting did in fact happen, and actually, that it extended into games two and three of the series.
This means that
MattyBrollic,
njnp,
BradSharp and
Snowtop will be infracted and tournament banned for six months.
This does not mean anything regarding
njnp's trophy and money prize, since we have no reason to believe he was ghosted in his own run.
