  For the cheaters, that tournament was the peak of their lives. It’s all downhill from here.

  They knew it was wrong. They even told their guys KEEP IT IN DISCORD ONLY. If they thought it was fine they wouldn't have tried to hide it.

  they didn&apos;t just read some info from chat and use it, they mobilized them and had them convey information in a discord.<br><br>they took &quot;using chat&quot; to a completely different level.<br>and that&apos;s why summit and others are pissed. <br><br><br>they were given an inch and took a mile.

  This saddens me so much. We had such a unique platform to showcase our community and this is what that tournament will be remembered for.

  This really upsets me, they completely destroyed the integrity of this tournament. Then they have the balls to defend their actions, have youn ever been in any tournament ever?! Their have always been strict rules about stream sniping, but they went above and beyond sniping. Knowing what they were doing was wrong, they stole money, and wasted the time of everyone playing and watching by killing the integrity of the game. And still only won by one minute kids are actual trash cans.

  &quot;The fine print didn&apos;t say we couldn&apos;t have help! We even asked before hand&quot; <br>This is why everything nice gets ruined and doing things is so difficult. <br>The Organizers should have made a huge announcement forbidding any outside help and also monitored the people asking about the fine print.

  A statement from BoomTV to clarify what happened in the tournament: <br> <br>After further review of the tournament, BoomTV has decided that Aussie Antics and his crewmates infringed on the competitive integrity of the event through stream sniping. And will be taking the following actions: <br> <br>Aussie Antics and his team will be DQ&apos;d and forfeit their prizing <br>All teams will move up in placement and receive the expected prizing for new placements.<br>:D

  I feel like their argument collapses in on itself because if they had tabs on everyone else, wouldn&apos;t they at some point realize nobody else was also cheating?

  This is like saying &quot;Yeah, the Astros cheated, but they still had to hit the ball&quot;<br><br>Yeah, it&apos;s a lot easier to hit what you already know is coming.

  One of the biggest issues I have with this is that IF they asked a question like that to the organisers it should have been in a channel that was visible to all participants and if it was in private then the organisers should have made sure that the information requested was conveyed to all teams in case there were others with the same question who were assuming they could do it by default. But honestly they weren&apos;t playing in the spirit of the tournament and I doubt they will be invited back next time.

  When they said ‘I still have this amount of the prize left, if you still want to chat’ was THE biggest slap in the face and the most disrespectful thing ever. <br><br>They won by cheating, allowing their chat to stream snipe and feed information from their opponents in a tournament situation. Stream sniping is a TOS rule break on literally every platform out there, how can they think it was okay?

  What these guys aren’t realizing is that ya they won the prize money, you also completely nuked any future credibility in not only the SoT community but the streaming community. Hope they spend the money wisely.
