"9/20 Well after a long 10 day break, a lot has happened.
-Theodin and Risk got into a small beef reminiscent of Fireboy and Theodin's war of words.
-Aftershock quit WPC after not bringing enough players to a match date scheduled by Jorge. This was an unfortunate circumstance, but was one people could see coming after previous turmoil from the Aftershock organization.
-The big news of the week is what happened to Atomic. After being unable to field enough players to have their match on Tuesday, Atomic was forced to forfeit. This was not a simple situation like it was for Aftershock.
Waste, the manager of team Atomic stated, "In the logs we schedule the match after I state that I will cancel the match if something doesn't work out. Jorge responds "Alright" making me think that he is acknowledging what I have said and is okay with it. Apparently I wasn't clear because Jorge claims that's not what he meant but doesn't say I can't cancel it. Numerous times other teams have canceled on Atomic with Jorges consent so I figured it was no big deal seeing as we still had 5 days until the deadline. Where I was wrong I guess is that a new rule was added saying that you cannot cancel a scheduled match unless both teams agree, though we were not alerted of this and it's not explicitly stated anywhere in the rules."
There are two clear sides on this issue. Jorge vs. everyone else. Waste clearly stated in his conversation with Jorge that, "I'll schedule it then cancel it if it doesn't work". Jorge's response? "Alright". Jorge then goes on to say, "The deadline match will be Sunday most likely if we can't set up our match this week". This is clear evidence that Jorge did in fact know what was going on. There was agreement on both sides that if the match needed to be rescheduled it would be done. The logs heavily support Waste's argument here.
Jorge has decided to be proactive about this. He has announced in an official statement that a committee will be selected that will address issues and rulings. This is a step in the right direction for the league."
