Quote:As we all know, recent events that occurred in the past forty eight hours shook most of the League of Legends community. NESL Heads decided that it is time to release a statement that should explain everything.
At first we would like to apologize to all the parties that have been negatively affected in any way by the occurrence of these recent events including the competitive community as a whole. We would like to inform the community that JadenTheBroker and Orcasm have decided to step down from their duties as League of Legend tournament officials. Both of them recognized the harm in their actions and decided to resign on their own rather than burden the National ESL with a lengthy review process.
Likewise, in respect for the competitive community and the rules set in place for player conduct, Counter Logic Gaming will be given 4 Minor Penalty Points. The blog post made by their team violated a player confidentiality rule by releasing a private chat between an admin and a player.
Quote:3.3 ConfidentialityThese penalty points will be applied according to the Intel Extreme Masters Rules, which includes a prize money reduction of 4% for the event in question, the Intel Extreme Masters Global Challenge Cologne at Gamescom. For more information how prize money reduction works feel free to check Intel Extreme Masters Rule Book.
The content of support tickets, discussions, players forum, or any other correspondence between the NESL officials and its participants are deemed strictly confidential, and publication of any such material or information should not be made public knowledge without the written permission of the NESL administration.
This in no way condones the behavior of NESL Admins. It is a goal of the NESL to increase the professionalism of the competitive League of Legends through not only rules, but through leadership and actions as well. We hope that everyone, from the professional players, volunteer admins and the fans, will help support our goal and recognize that it is done with the best interests of the community and will only be successful together.
