If you think CoT had a fair portion of drama, you ain't seen nothing yet.
In the AoE 3 community currently the TAD tournament is being played with a $3000 prize pool. This weekend the semi-finals (knock-out system) would be played.
One of the remaining players (H2O) is the highest ranked player and the #1 seed. One of the tournament admins (Chicks) also is a caster.
This is what happened tonight: http://pkclan.net/viewtopic.php?f=2&p=37072#p37072
Stream: http://www.twitch.tv/ageofempires/b/482357264
After this disaster the #2 decided to quit the tournament out of sympathy. The organization is on skype with all participants and the caster for hours now....
Lessons learned:
- clear rules do help
- conflict of interests can make decisions a lot harder
