Dude, next time be more careful and be aware that there are some data protection regulations :P Better don't post names, unless these people gave you their permission to do so. Just a little free tip from me :P

Look, ListJuggler is reposting names:

Do you think they have permission to do so? :)

Because I'm lazy, any chance we can get those reserved posts on the front page updated with actual Top-8s? It's a lot of thread to trawl through at the moment.

Data Protection caused a major ballache in Magic: The Gathering event coverage. Before we could even post the first round standings we had to collect in 2,000 signed data protection permission waivers, work out who hadn't agreed to have their data shared and change their names in the system to just their initials or something. Proper paperwork pain in the ass, but unfortunately unavoidable as WotC legal team had decided they were unacceptably exposed by what coverage was doing.

Easy way to do this is have on the sign up sheet a second row for Pseudonyms to be used. We used to do this at C-Strike, CoD and SC tournaments, people would put in their gamertag or Battlenet name. Works for this as well, use your forum name or gamer tag if you don't want your real name public.

The Spanish/Portuguese meta is often very different from the US/UK one. Double Firesprays won a major event last year IIRC.

Yeah, it was always off the wall for Netrunner as well. You can't really take much away from that result.

I've seen the final. Imperial player with pretty standard meta list (Palp+2 Defenders) has made so many mistakes that I almost got a cancer watching this.

I am sure both players are excellent, but everybody once for a while have a bad day. This time Rebel player had luck to hit bad day of Imperial player :)

It's a shame so many finals have this quality of game play. Exhaustion is a real factor at this point in a tourney. The two day set up is so nice for this reason. It assures that you get top tier play in the knock out rounds.

Sorry If I sounded rude. Not intentionally.

It really doesn't. I've seen plenty of people just as splatted, if not more so, at the end of a 2 day tourney as a one day one. And I generally prefer 1 day-ers because I have a life outside Star Wars...

Someone has Minnesota regional top lists?

I did not find it rude, I found it hilarious. But I am a bit of an ******* so that could be a bad indicator.

We need yo use to it, and never judge player skill after one match, especially one in Tops. Swiss matches often have better quality of play coz ppl are fresh and under smaller pressure.

Everyone seen Worlds tops thinking "I would fly it better". It's not true - those are real masters and deserved to be there in finals. In finals you're supposed to make mistakes.

But being able to play well when you're tired is skill-testing. Put people under pressure and see who cracks first.

Oh i get the argument, I've done both in the past. The one two day event I played in was super nice tho, and I know I'm unique in not having a life outside of Star Wars.

He faced up to 6 Defenders lists between the swiss and the top if I remember correctly. I doubt all of them were as tired as the one in the final :P

I've seen only semi final against Deci/Vessery and final against Palp Defenders. Both played perfectly. Kudos.
