So much hate on Locatav in Australia vs Netherlands...
And now the censorship. This chat is turning into communism where every single rude comment will be shot on sight.
R.I.P.

For a good reason though.. If you're gonna make stuff up on the fly as a staff member for the OWC just because you can't handle a joke, the OWC loses a lot of credibility.Athrun_Yamato wrote:

Man this is turning serious.
Some picture highlights:
Attempt of clearing the commotion
Second time. They actually stopped the comment flow...
The happystick movement
The chat has ever gone so quiet.. A first in OWC history
Is this the next Tienanmen Square incident?

I expect this post to be deleted but whatever, at least so many people can see this.
The way Loctav is acting is really cheapening the OWC imo

I don't know if you're having a bad day Loctav, but this time you committed a sin of power abuse.
You literally threatened Fuxvanes with 2h silence for saying "chill". This is far beyond the proper way of managing a tournament.
In this case I'm inclined to really say it
Chill, please
Thanks

This is probably going too far for what Loctav said. It's too intense. Probably really stressed today.AmaiHachimitsu wrote:

He wouldn't be the kind of person to do this, wow.
I'm expecting another wipeout in this thread soon
The chat was pretty retarded from my point of view, but those silences were dumb as well. You should be a bit more tolerant on jokes, honestly.
Also serious question: will that loser bracket thing be on rest of world cups as well?

There will be another one. Did this kind of thing happen last year? I don't recall it happening last year.-Kamikaze- wrote:

And for that question, probably.
it's twitch chat, what do you expect? it's just that the individuals modding the chat either weren't familiar with twitch as a platform or how to moderate larger channels. and ya, thread wipe inc-Kamikaze- wrote:

It was peaceful owc last year, so was mwc
This tournament is already taking its turn on the bad side...
Oh right, most of the players got banned from the tournament, that's what happened...
Then.. what has changed this year?-Kamikaze- wrote:

The way they are trying to moderate Twitch chat is horrid. Definitely driving people away. You'd think it was their first time ever on Twitch. The production of this has to be one of the worst I've ever seen for a gaming competition. I love osu, but this is just embarrassing. I'm not sure if osu actually wants to try to get bigger on the e-sports stage, but with stuff like this, it's going nowhere fast. If it doesn't care about that scene, then it definitely shows and I just need to lower expectations of production.
There were bans in mwc tho. I mean, WHOLE Candian 7K team got banned from it because of multi's. Also some teams didn't participate in any matches and there were issues with timezones and maps being too easy in groups (like 3,5* maps), but there wasn't even a tiny bit of dramas that are hereAthrun_Yamato wrote:

Please stop using that word if you clearly have no idea what it means, lolAthrun_Yamato wrote:

It definitely seems like the mods have absolutely no idea how to moderate twitch chat. I eventually just left the stream because the smart mods decide the best way to fix everything is to silence the chat.
Same story every year. The same childs keep whining before the tournament even begin and keep whining until the tournament ends. yet they are still here every year, you threat every year but you never do anything. Just undertake your words, and don't play if you are unhappy, stop building unecessary drama everytime. If you think people can do whatever they want just because they are good players without facing any consequencies just make your own tournament where people can do whatever they like, say whatever they want and behave as diresrespectful and offensive as they want. The rules were clear from the beginning, if you don't agree with them just don't register...
And the twitch chat was being a huge cancer.
And by the way, you don't know what communism is, so stop spreading it like an insult or to imply you are facing a dictatorship. You also do not know what a dictatorship and your comparison is offensive and arrogant.
I'm just going to enjoy the rest of the matches from now and look forward to the other world cups when people are actually being civilized unlike here.

You say to stop using "communism" as an insult because it is offensive, but you use the term "cancer" improperly, and that can be very offensive to some peopleNashmun wrote:

You can now go back to where you came from, wherever you were for the whole tournament, because you're clearly not updated.Nashmun wrote:

R9k mode prevents twitch chat from sending identical messages. Instantly solves spam. They aren't trying to moderate. This is just one giant power trip.

What a typical guy totally uninvolved in the tournament would say. Actually with additional bullshit.
"Don't play if you're unhappy" - Sad that we would've been banned if we decided to resign. This gives me an impression that you have hardly any idea about what caused the drama and therefore people like you shouldn't even open this thread.
Describing us as children (childs lol) despite probably being younger than many OWC players + the sheer fact of putting everyone into the same bag is as offensive.
We're calling it communism because it reminds us of, for example, the times of Stalin who would order to murder anyone who would stand against him, no matter how harmless the opponent it would be.
tl;dr disappear

good luck in loser bracket HERE I SAID IT
If you look over the rules, it never said anything about silence = not being able to play. Just because Loctav is one of the moderators of the tournament, doesn't mean he can do whatever he wants when he feels like it.
Also, I think the 'children' in this thread just want to make the OWC better. Sure, spamming the chat may be just Twitch mannerisms taking over, but there is a valid point to make when you look at the way the 'silence gate' was handled.

As a matter of fact, yes, ik what is comunism.
Why I always bring up the word, because im still angry at the chinese communist party.
Don't think you can stop me saying that word.
And, I think we should lay it down. We'll hear Loctav's response first then we will see what will happen then.

There will be no response, the last 10 pages of the topic will be erased and we will continue the tournament in the same sweet manner. We're just talking here while we still can.Athrun_Yamato wrote:

There is no point on arguing publicly on this anymore. But don't assume things that are untrue, just because I don't talk a lot doesn't mean I know nothing and I followed the whole story. If you didn't understand that childs actually stood for the behaviour and not your age then there is nothing I can do anymore. If you still want to discuss about it just PM me but I don't think it really worth it.
Just enjoy the tournament and don't bring unecessary drama everytime something happen, that was actually my point even if my post seemed aggressive.

MY FUCKING GOD I KNOW
I just explained that since Stalin was a part of communist party it reminds us of communism. He was really dictator and we all know this. (Officially he was :just: a General Secretary)
That's what it boils down to. I want to see the OWC succeed. But this is only going to ruin its reputation if it keeps going in this direction. It's going to get to the point where only die-hards will tune in. I see the potential for great entertainment value through osu competitions, but the way things are now is just one huge self-destruct button.
I guess, this is kinda hard, when you're not able to play for telling someone to chill. You should see it in the players perspective.Nashmun wrote:

Oh man... I've never seen such a messy tournament. So much unnecessary drama.
