[8:53 PM] Dai: Do you not think it's a bit much that we have to go ask all the teams, when really this was something you said you'd do yesterday when we waited for two hours in Discord for you to then not say anything.

[8:55 PM] Dai: I don't see what this arbitrary task achieves. It's like you're clutching at reasons to disallow us entering, instead of simply admitting you were wrong to disallow us last weekend, and can make amends byy simply letting us play next weekend. One of the principle issues is how you've been dictated to by these teams threatened by better players, and now you're letting them get involved again. Do you not think you should just refer to your amended rules when making a decision? ANd get support from your staff?

[8:55 PM] Rafee: If it's too much, you don't have to bother

[8:56 PM] Dai: Why should we go asking permission to enter a tournament that we legitimately bought entry for.

[8:56 PM] Rafee: You don't have to grovel, it's just talking to teams. Getting to know the other captains. Seeing what else is popping in UK DotA

[8:58 PM] Dai: Okay well there are 8 teams entered, Demise have already contacted us saying they're fine with it, and we know PerilousRAZE and Infernokoi personally so we know they'll be fine. Contacting the other teams with the sole purpose of getting their approval should be unnecessary if you simply have a bit of integrity with your rules. What do you think will happen if we enter? You've already seen some teams leave, disband and kick players based on the first weekend.

[8:59 PM] Rafee: So you have 2/8?

[8:59 PM] Rafee: Nice

[8:59 PM] Rafee: Almost there

[8:59 PM] Dai: You extended ticket purchasing deadline, we bought a ticket. This is 100% legitimate entry. If 1 or 2 teams have an issue with it it's a question of going to the rules, which we stuck to.

[9:00 PM] Rafee: At the end of the day. As you said, I'm the admin. Admin ruling is final. I gave you an avenue. Traverse said avenue if you wish

[9:00 PM] Rafee: You've done a quarter of the work already

9:03 PM] Dai: You can stop being sarcastic. As admin you create the rules. We stuck to the rules. A small handful of other players did not like the rules and THREATENED YOU, and you want to take their side? You said yourself you've been made a fool of with their exaggerations. You said yourself we should really be allowed to enter. You said yourself the reason is not to do with timing. Why, in the face of all of this, do you simply refuse to just say 'yeah, you didn't break any rules, you can enter'. Why are you making obstacles?

Sent on:Mon[9:04 PM] Rafee: I never said you're too good btw

[9:05 PM] Dai: You didn't say that, but other teams said that was their reasoning and you agreed that that was the reason - they were threatened by us. So it's nothing to do with 'oh we shouldn't have extended the deadline'.

[9:05 PM] Rafee: It's not an obstacle, you could use the time spent grovelling to me, to talk to the other captains
