E. Cohenskii

G. ZutaZuta
H. Clown
I. TheOne
J. Vaga

Chicks doesn't really seem to be in that list. I mean It's possible that I'm just not seeing him. If anyone is able to point him out to me on that list then I guess I might understand this nonsense a little more.

It isn't the case that what happened was in any way a defense of the rules from players arbitrarily deciding what should happen. What chicks wanted was actually against the rules as well as against all common sense. Brilliant.

Right here.
8. Authorized Commentators
L. Interjection
M. Chicks

Demonoid, you point out that Chicks is listed as a commentator under section 8. However, the rules clearly state "Only casters that have been authorized by the tournament staff per Section 7.5 will be permitted to stream matches." Chicks is not listed per section 7.5, (7.5 !=8) so therefore he is not permitted to stream matches. The rules make it clear that selected matches must be casted by an authorized caster (e.g. Zutazuta). Nowhere does it say that matches must have an authorized commentator, so the players did not need Chicks to commentate.

He was trying to commentate though.

That's irrelevant. The rules don't say that a commentator is necessary. I agree that a caster is necessary, and the players had a caster (Zutazuta), who is authorized to cast under rule 7.5.

Proposed solution for the TAD tournament debacle.

A commentator obviously isn't necessary, and no reason Chicks couldn't have added commentary afterwards.
After a CASTER (which Chicks is clearly NOT) had cast the match.

Unbelievable. H20 deserves an apology from Chicks and PKclan ...

Chicks' actions make the entire clan look like a joke. Lost so much respect and credibility among the entire community.
Pathetic.
