I can't believe this is not even wednesday WC time zone. Why not waiting all teams to submit judging results?

KMSC again for your revenge; well I was waiting for this. Good luck to you guys! Results are logics btw, a bit surprised, I was excpecting a much larger victory for GPC.

I won't questioning the differences of time anymore it's just complicated. The other thing to concern is when the deadline was extended, IMO some of judges have done procrastinating instead of of using extended time to make accurate judging, and others seems forgot and busy, etc. That is not good. We are the loser and we accept it. Honestly, it above my expectation that IPSB has reached quarter-final and defeated some big teams. I proud to you guys! Special credits to @Zombo for working hard in the tournament, hopefully will be next World Cup, WC14, WC16 so on. Good luck guys!~

@Gland You defeat THPSC and TWPS and now IPSB become a big team :D

Notice? 3 NOT asian countries out of 4! XD It was quite unexpected.

Date: Wed, Apr 11 2012 17:56:36
Well, I designed a KMSC logo, since I don't like fact we didn't have one. Sadly it arrived way too late (R5 lol)...but I still think it's good to have one.
There's the circle from the Korean flag, the star from the Malaysian flag and the flower/branch from SPSC logo in the middle, symbolising the unity. (SPSC is not only made of Spaniards, but Hispanic people, so it wouldn't be cool to add something from the Spanish flag. Apart from that, I wouldn't like adding a royal emblem to this logo, so the flower thingy is ok (sun)). Also there's the moon from the Malaysian flag holding everything. The logo itself was nice so I kept the typography simple ^^ Feel free to use this logo anywhere if you need it. /off-topic ^_^ -
Date: Wed, Apr 11 2012 18:46:20
Nice logo,@VikroaL and holy crap,UPSB defeated JEB? i really wasnt expecting this O.o,but you guys worked hard,give your best,GPC is a beast team! good Luck GPC!(i thought that GPC would lost O.o) and good luck KMSC,you guys are such a strong team!
-
Date: Wed, Apr 11 2012 18:49:59
Wow good job Vik. Good luck for the next round. I'm rooting for KMSC. (sun)

if upsb can handle jeb i think we can beat gpc too but fpsb ...
-
Date: Thu, Apr 12 2012 00:44:03
everyone underestimating upsb as usual D:
-
Date: Thu, Apr 12 2012 00:55:52
I thought UPSB had it nailed, Hippos presentation and combo just killed it, with moves that haven't wowed me like that since ponkotu. And UPSB's doubles video was far superior. GPC will be tough opponents to nail down though. Good luck UPSB.
-
Date: Thu, Apr 12 2012 03:56:56
If UPSB vs FPSB in the finals, shits hitting the fan.
-
Date: Thu, Apr 12 2012 05:08:51
actually KMSC is being underestimated ... hard battles for both UPSB and KMSC, especially if their opponent send out their best lineups :boing: Still, I expect a final with UPSB and FPSB xD
-
Date: Thu, Apr 12 2012 05:30:35
I'm hoping for a UPSB versus KMSC finals cause I like to support the underdogs
-

This is gonna be epic! Looking for @Ivabra 's combo XD

I think that too A strong Double, but will be strange the fusion of 2 diferents styles can be an awesome double or maybe just normal with out hesitation The battle between FPSB and KMSC is gonna be so cool -

This can easily go wrong or be awesome. I'd love to see emphasized contrast in the clips, going beyond the obvious style difference. Play with colors, backgrounds, lighting, music etc. I don't know how I'd feel about a regular double with white pens on similar backgrounds with music that doesn't match. -
Date: Mon, Apr 16 2012 10:06:02
GPC vs. UPSB 's gonna be some tight shit ^^ Minwoo should be able to handle @Josh_Pr who is considered the "German i.suk" often ^^ Can't wait to see who's gonna make this! So excited >_______<

@i.suk amazing. it started off strong and went right into WTF territory. best one so far. the finisher wasn't flashy or complicated, but somehow it fits the combo much better that way. Minwoos was interesting, the stall was kind of weird but new, whatever it was that came right after was not perfectly executed from what i could see aniki had a slight lapse in smoothness at 0:13 when it went to 34 but barely noticeable good double from gpc, but the combos didn't blow me away all in all, i think UPSB still has a chance to win if this is our firepower

wowwwwww fel and ivabra!! raw skilllllllllllllllllllllllll <3
-
Date: Sun, Apr 29 2012 00:31:54Disregard this shit. Download the raw, you'll see that my post is entierly correct. http://www.file-upload.net/download-4310451/WC_Minwoo_R5.MP4.html My analysis relied on the youtube version. I should have downloaded the raw from the beginning :D Raw Screen: Raw Screen color correction/enhanced
Spoiler
Regarding the Minwoo thing, check this out: Those are the frames 06-19 and 06-20 from the youtube video, where his left hand disappears. Lossless capture, saved in PNG. There has been some color correction to make the noise brighter, however, nothing has been edited on my side. No JPEG artifacts due to conversion. Now lets take a look at the noise: As you can see, the noise vanishes at this point in time. And now lets take a look at frames 09-22 and 09-23, the point in time where his hands reappear. Now, let us think this through. Why did the noise disappear? Well, probably he masked it out. But then it would reappear when the right part is unmasked. Given that his hand moves very close to the top right corner at frame 10-21, it is unlikely that he only masked out the small part. Also, why would he do that right after his hand vanishes? As you can see, the noise does not reappear. Anyways. While the part above is mostly speculation, here's the proof that his video has been edited not only in terms of color correction but also in terms of clip composition. Lets compare the frames 00-17 and 10-25, one frame right at the beginning, one rather in the middle. (image is 1280 pixels wide) http://img7.imagebanana.com/img/oexfhz1m/noise_position.png As you can see, the clip changes size/position during the course of the video. Even the naked eye can observe a shift of the noise in the top left corner. This leads to the following conclusion: The first part of the left-hand combo was actually his right hand, mirrored. After his hand vanishes, he reveals his true left hand, to do the 2nd part (which actually has hand-to-hand interaction). If you watch the video fast enough, you can see that the noise gradually reaches the frame of the actual composition, indicating a slow resizing process. Take a look at the combo (accelerated to a total framecount of 90, no frame blending). The shift of the noise should be obvious. -

My reaction while reading taichi's post: Seriously this is a HUGE deal. Holy shit I am shocked right now. One of the strongest and most respected spinners in the world caught cheating? @taichi1082 Thank you for noticing this and taking the time to prove it. excellent argument and evidence. Also, I lol'd at this:

I would like to verse his combo withouth his initial right side in the beginning. Please do not disqualify. That or allow minwoo to reflim. I forgive you minwoo, honestly. No hard feelings bro. While I am dissapointed since i tried very hard with filming my video.... i know from this round, and form experience world tounrmanets/cups can be very stressful.

he still has 1.5h to submit final version. as long as he cuts the video short to remove the edited part, there's no problem. nothing is official as of right now. -

That happened after he recorded this combo. Wouldn't explain the 1p2h part after the intro either. =/
-
Date: Sun, Apr 29 2012 03:44:37
I don't think any of us can say we've never cheated before, but I like to think we learn from our mistakes, very disappointing. I can only imagine how disappointed Minwoo must feel in himself as well.

yea im not sure theres much to explain...its clear he cheated. he could apologize for cheating, but whatever there is to explain was in taichi's post and neoknux's vid a bit disappointed in the minwoo considering how well he performed in the previous rounds

Shut up @sparking Minwoo has good chances against neo. He is imo one of worlds best spinner. What he did was may not right. But mirror the vid back. Evenwith that he would beat neo.
-
Date: Sun, Apr 29 2012 10:28:00
His combo before was below what he was capable of, if you cut out the 2p2h power he has no chance. Truth be told, he can't win this round, and he knows it.

I still respect Minwoo for beating Eriror twice in a row in the first live GPC Tournament. But if he really cheats this one, then... :dunno: He doesn't really have to do that, it doesn't make any sense. But I'm kinda disappointed
-

Love the UPSB double. And i am disappointed in GPC...Minwoo and Josh_Pr. :/ Would've loved to see Sponge and Swob kicking asses in the next round. Looking forward to UPSB in the finals.

Yes, but at least sLy was funny. This was just a waste of time and it caused flaming (read comments on Minwoo's video). I don't recall people flaming sLy, just poking fun at him a bit and laughing about it.

The GPC Team didn't know about minwoo's attempt to cheat and we didn't expect it at all. We absolutely agree that he should be disqualified but if the UPSB Team wants to give him a second chance then you can use this version: (thanks to supawit).[video=youtube;ISPsaFsR_aw]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ISPsaFsR_aw[/video] This will be the official video until Minwoo makes a statement.

Hey there, it is obvious. Reason: I took me a long time to record this 2p2h combo (in real, haha). I was quite often close making it. However I did not. When I injured my left hand as I told my team 2 weeks or sth. ago. Beeing mad and disappointed by myself haven't finished the combo and try to keep up with the high expectations of my team, friends and fans. I "cutted my left hand into an other, where I messed it up". I thought no one would care. However I got "BUSTED" hard as VStrike is saying by taichi. But I think I am not. It is good - happy taichi made this. Happy that someone is taking this serious. So good job to anyone and of course I am apologizing being naiv. Best wishes for you all and neoknux - I am very sorry and you are the winner of the battle (if I have anything to say, haha). :) Enjoy Spinning. :) Bye Bye

As a represantative of the German mod-team I want to say, that we as well are disappointed, not just of Minwoo's cheating but as well of Josh_Pr's attitude towards the WC. We gave him the chance to participate because he is talented and we thought he'd develop during WC! At least he didn't as much as expected but he is still an awesome spinner with great prospects! We understand that he is disappointed for not fullfilling the expactations and reaching his set goals, but expressing it in that way is not fair. Not towards us, not towards the team, not towards himself, not towards the GPC and not towards Penspinning itself. We still support both of them as long as they take full responsibilty of their actions. They are great spinners and we hope they will show that they can do better in the future! P.S.

Date: Sun, Apr 29 2012 17:02:39
WC12 : His r3 combo was the best of the WC for me. r4 was great, but far below. I didn't like r5 at all, even if he had not cheated (there's no big loss) WC10 : His double with thekook was awesome. B&E was pretty lame indeed. WT09 : the even combos were absolutely great, and the odd ones weren't so bad.
-
Date: Sun, Apr 29 2012 17:10:11
Lol this is fucking absurd. He should get automatic loss for the round end of story. And if you still respect him after this then I guess it's your choice to have shitty role models, but the people who are actually upset that he got CAUGHT (not that he did it, just that he didn't get away with it), you're dumb and clearly have no respect for the community (just like Minwoo). Minwoo you can make whatever lighthearted post you want with all the puppy-faced excused, but you cheated hardcore and thought you'd get away with it, and I wouldn't be upset if we never see another video from you again.

How could you be disappointed while you're not even competing with GPC? He might have disappointed the spinners, and maybe his "breakdance injury" was only a random reason why he didn't compete in WT11 and in WC10 but that's not our business ^^ And GPC was still great in the two previous years (Sponge got in the 4th round of the WT11 and GPC finished third in 2010). Moreover, he made a great come back during this tournament, and he was kinda strong, I'm sure there aren't more than 10 spinners who could beat him :) . So as far as I'm concerned, he didn't disappoint as much as people think till this round. He cheated, it sucks and it's kinka super-lame but we should think about what he did before.. 2nd place in 2009, three wins in 2008 (He beat Rarka btw), he created PSO, he made several advertisings, he made tuto's, he created a pen mod that a huge amount of spinners got. ^^ Anyway, I think it's gonna be hard for GPC to get in the last round, these guys has still made a great job. @Azria Sad or angry, I don't care.

Okay I respect your opinion, you're right^^ . But if you were in his shoes how would you react ? "oooooooooh my god I'm so sorry I wish I didn't make that cheated combo, guys excuse me and please love me again!" Actually I think his answer was pretty mature, he seemed to accept the fact that we busted him, he apologized, and that's it =) Oh and let's be clear about that, I don't defend him because his a 3000-subscribers-youtuber or because he's famous. I've always enjoyed his videos but this thing has nothing to do with my posts :)

No groveling would have been just as bad. There is no appropriate response to what he did, but if he had said something along the lines of "I apologize for jeopardizing the integrity of the tournament, and for letting down the people who look up to me. I promise I won't ever compete again unless I learn what it means to be serious about it." then at least he saves a shred of respect in my opinion. But instead he made excuses, said he was "glad" he got caught like he meant to all along, and turned the whole thing into a joke (more than he already had) EDIT: PS obviously I love ivabra and don't have any problems with his opinions, I'm just expressing mine :)

Date: Sun, Apr 29 2012 17:33:27
I feel that, as a world class spinner with undoubtable skill in PSing, he shouldn't have to resort to cheating. It shows that he isn't serious or is lazy, which is not what this tournament is about. Same with what Josh_Pr said. Truly disappointing IMO. I have a belief that I would rather do bad on a test and get a D+ than cheat on it and get a zero. Minwoo should have submitted the best combo he could do legitimately, not the best combo his computer can come up with. He will still be admired as a great spinner, but this has tarnished his reputation/respect among the entire PS community. Agree with strat on the fact that he should have apologized for real instead of joking around.

Minwoo, one of the most famous spinners in the world, one of the best, and he was one of my favourites, since now.

If you really want to hear my honest opinion. It is okay to talk and exaggerate about your ability[I am not referring to anyone particularly, I even do that sometimes] But to actually twist the truth and use a shortcut like this, it's just weak. Cheating is cheating and of course it is not fair to anyone. This is why the world has gone way too wrong nowadays. It is because you spoil these people. It was not a mistake, it was an intention. Forgivable? Maybe. Maybe not. This year WC has been treated like a joke, 3 people from 3 communities disappointed us in a big tournament. So disappointed. =/ Worst year ever in PS history

It's true that too many people have not treated this tournament as it should have been. They did not really respect this tournament, the meaning it holds and all of the penspinning community. However everyone can do things that are not right if they are in a difficult situation. There is a lot of pressure on the spinners from the PS community, but for most also from their real life. This pressure can result in a huge amount of stress. To relieve themselves from this pressure people sometimes make the wrong choices. It's just natural to not be able to evaluate situations properly if you are really stressed out. And the pressure to do awesome in the WC, the pressure work gives you to earn your living, the pressure of the expectations your friends have of you, additional stress because of injuries, illnesses or similar stuff all add up and can create more than enough stress to greatly influence the judgement of someone. While it is right that Minwoo did cheat and this is a disrespectful act you should not hate him for what he did. I'm sure he didn't do it because he wanted to. At that moment he just didn't see a better solution to his problem.

Guys, think about this: If this year is the worst in penspinning history (as far as world competition goes), the chances of it getting worse are pretty small. hopefully next year, some spinners will have learned their lessons, and maybe some communities as a whole will have learned their lessons, and spinners that will not blow off world tournament/cup will be the ones competing. This year, there's many lessons to be learned, and next year, maybe we'll get to apply those lessons, and not screw up so badly.

How can you be so sure, because I am totally thinking of the opposite. People never learn, and so far I see those post likes from those Minwoo's defenders. I don't have anything to say, but you can't be sure about that -

I don't understand you ppl, how can you not see it as cheating? If for example I would cheat every1 would hate me with no exuse, Minwoo has skills but cheating is cheating.

I never wrote that it isn't. I just wrote that despite being able to do a combo without cheating he didn't see that way to do it, because of the expectations others have for him. It's a reason. Maybe it's not a good reason and doesn't justify his actions, but it's still a reason and to me it makes sense. This is my reason not to hate him. I see him differently now and probably don't respect a lot, but I still don't hate him. -

Almost every round of every WT and WC I have had ideas in my combos that were way above my level and I filmed quite a bit in order to get them down, but eventually I couldn't fit them in the combo well enough. And it has NEVER occured to me to cheat in any way or form, even if it would have been a 2p2h section that would have been possible to do it with. It's called respect for your opponent, respect for yourself, and respect for the whole penspinning community. Sure, I do not hate Minwoo for what he has done, he is a cool guy and I can actually assert to that because I have met him. But if he doesn't have respect and thinks no one would care about it, how can the penspinning community respect him back without any problems? Maybe in a few months I can look back at it and have peace with it, but at the moment I am honestly pretty pissed off because this doesn't seem like the Minwoo I know. -
Date: Mon, Apr 30 2012 13:12:30
Well, if you know Minwoo can do the power tricking in the intro with his left hand when it is not injured, then I guess he must have thought it was reasonable to use his right hand as a replacement.

But you don't! There's no proof that he can do it, there's no proof he's even close to doing it! And replacing the hardest part of the combo with a part from a different video totally ruins the whole point of actually doing that section. It removes the whole difficulty of it. So it isn't even only against the rules, it doesn't make sense and it is immoral. -

This sentence just contradicts itself, wtf. At least your morals can say that cheating is wrong[Or perhaps you don't have one in your mind?] [quote=Pendragon]BUT do you hate him cause he cheated? how many people have to hate you then for cheating lying etc????????[/quote] I have developed somewhat a negative feeling for him, yes. And a lot of people would hate you if you cheat, who loves cheaters? Maybe there might be some nuts ones, but I think that's just a few. [quote==Pendragon]my onpinion is easy to find in iva´s words you can hate his cheating but you can´t hate his personality cause you don´t know what you have done in his position.[/quote] The way one thinks causes one to develop the idea of cheating. so cheating is a part of personality. They are totally related. I'd have filmed the best I could do if I were him. It is not important to lose or win. Believing in yourself and do the right thing is more important. I'd rather lose and sad for a while, and perhaps make an excuse that I didn't try my best or that I might have had a chance[Real story, I'd do that. o_O] than to cheat and feel regret for the rest of my life for ruining my own reputation for nothing at all. -

Really well said. Especially the bit about respecting yourself, your opponent, and our community. I also often have combos that are above my level, so, instead of cheating, I just adjust them so that they are the best I can do. +1 EK. -

Ok i respect and understand your feelings and opinipns @Enkronidus. But try to understand my view before you give me some words. I was also sad when i read the message of cheating first time. I also have never Thought he would go this way. He also was my idol for spinning and the person why i start to spin. But i cant hate HIM fot what he do. Ihate the way he is gone but i dont personally hate him. Even if i know that he cheated not alone to neo but to the whole german community. But to say now that you hate him is to much. I give him my respect not for what he do but for.beeing one of the greatest spinner on earth and a nice person cause whatever he do he will ever be minwoo not important how.often he would cheat.

What do you mean "how often"? O.o I agree with Erirornal Kraione, I also have alot of ideas for combos, but I can't perform all because my skills aren't good enough yet. I would never cheat just to make something cooler ;0 If he can't perform something, just practise -.- I respect Minwoo for his great skills, but I will never forgive first cheating (officially) in PS world, because I feel like from now on ppl will always complain about using black background, so for example spinner like Hippo will have problems, sad :/

Now that the whole Minwoo drama has died out, let's get back to the content in the WC. I'm gonna' take a guess and say the craze that this WC generates is either Fingerstucking (BaiMai and Minwoo) or more linkage heavy combos complimented by power (Iva and i.suk). A muck less likely trend but what I'm hoping for is for F2F and my style of combos to start to spread out where the combo is filled with super creative links and as little filler tricks as possible in the combo so virtually every link has some creativity. It's prolly not gonna' happen since our styles are complex to understand, learn and execute excluding the fact that not everyone can constantly come up with 20 seconds worth of creative linkages

Well, judging by the rulebook, Minwoo still wins (IMO). I just don't see how neo could possibly win with his poor style, execution, and lack of artistism. That's just my opinion. I don't even consider myself Minwoo's fan. -
Date: Tue, May 1 2012 20:25:03
poor style? you must be blind
-
Date: Tue, May 1 2012 21:28:00
style is subjective, let's not argue about it in this thread please ^^
Spoiler
well, judging by the rulebook's criteria, minwoo's revised combo shows low difficulty, low creativity and poor structure, especially compared to his R3, which is the best combo he released in WC12 =\ of course, this is just my opinion as well, but it'd be nice if you actually picked up your pen/mod and tried out the linkages both spinners used before making a judgment... -
Date: Tue, May 1 2012 23:14:47
i.suk has a point. Minwoo's combo really is not that good to begin with, and neo's combo has a ton of difficulty and linkages packed into it. Plus, even if Minwoo is technically better, he will not win. It's not the fact that Minwoo's combo sucks that will doom him. It's the fact that he felt that he was above the limitations of the rules, above the structure of a tournament, and that he disrespected his opponent and the entire tourney in general. The idea that he thought he could pass by with a cheated combo, a weak one at that, is just sad. Minwoo is a great spinner, and could actually land that combo if he wanted to. Releasing that combo is just lazy, and disrespectful to neo, who idolizes Minwoo in a way. The fact that he apologized and declared neo the winner on his video, doesn't mean shit either. He tried to cheat, got caught, and is feeling the heat for it. I used to think Minwoo was a pretty cool guy, and a great penspinner. The idea that he would screw himself, and GPC as a whole in less than a minute is just mind-blowing. Let this incident be a reference to future WC/WT spinners, when they attempt to "take the easy way out."

there's no question he's a top tier spinner, but there's more to it than skill. Just look at Michael Vick or Tiger woods. There's no doubting their ability but there actions have compromised their reputations.

In terms of artistic, I actually liked Minwoo's combo more It was appealing and creative (not as good as his previous rounds) and the flow was extraordinary Neoknux's combo had OMFG lots of difficult and new linkages, but I can't say that it's appealing to me xD His execution, his combo flow didn't give me the feeling of 'artistic' (no offence xD) Still it's only just my opinion :boing:

Date: Wed, May 2 2012 09:49:00
With regards to exeuction...I knew well before i taped my combo it would be my biggest struggle. I was working with links which i experiemented with a little bit before, but far from mastered. I knew it was a gambit that i sacrifice the usually artistic flow and smoothness for somethign which i [B]felt represented me more[/B]. i was/still am glad i chose this route even before i knew minwoos situation. It felt more self rewarding. OTHER VIDEOS I really liked gpc doubles. I think they have an equal shot of wining the doubles as we do. The ddr thing was a good idea, just wish they used that concept a little bit more. Fel2fram and ivabra. opposite spectrum method, very much like our hippo and eriror. boy did it pull off. Everything was in this doubles. Swift speed, amazing linkages...flow . I particularly liked fel2frams finger2side cont ...(no idea what its called lol) but it looks so coool. josh_pr...i dont see why people are complaning about him. I guess he didnt reach expectations??? well i cant be mad for an effort for a combo. KMSPC , nice doubles. liked the idea a lot....GOOK LUCK kipple and alvaris. Interesting ...unique flow from both. cool beans.

I.suk destroyed josh_pr no contest lol Neoknux i really feel sorry for you how you wanted to compete against minwoo and put so much effort into your combo and he just ended up cheating.... Imo your combo was much much better anyway XD if his was legit you'd still easily win Doubles.... Close contest both are very good and interesting..... And both of them were very different. Hard to decide I just hope it's. UPSB vs FPSB. I think it will :)

Date: Wed, May 2 2012 12:41:47
regarding artistic theme in minwoo vs neo:
@Elune i prefer neo's, it is a lot more interesting to me since it contains a lot of unusual linkages, minwoo's presentation is better, but i don't really like his combo since structure is bad (6 sec fl spam and...that 7 second pen hold/fake stall in middle, argh) xD neo's flow can be improved though, ofc =\ [B]FPSB [/B]vs KMSC 29.1 Artistic: [B]Anikis [/B]vs. Alvaris - insane combo from anikis, very interesting flow/style and cool linkages, difficulty of the ending (especially setting up fingercross in middle of combo) is incredible; i understand alvaris was a bit stressed for time due to renovation of room and other problems, but still made a stylish combo with decent links (except, not particularly of a higher level than his previous rounds i think) 29.2 Technical: Gisele8 vs. Kipple - after watching a few times, unsure of this one =\ too lazy at current moment to analyze both combos in more depth to make a decision, gisele's linkages are more interesting and difficult imo, but kipple's control/flow is crazily good...-unsure- 29.3 Double: [B]Ivabra & Fel2fram[/B] vs. VikroaL & Yorch - best materials/spinning in any doubles this WC12 so far from FPSB, truly amazing, good job in making coherent doubles with 2 different styles; vikroal and yorch very entertaining as always with transition (sun) niceniceSpoiler
people who say minwoo's combo was more 'artistic' probably neglected that, in order to score highly in 'artistic' theme by rulebook, you need to be extremely creative as well as very appealing x) ok, enough about this minwoo business, it is boring now xD -
Date: Wed, May 2 2012 14:20:13
@i.suk : lol that's why I said I liked Minwoo's combo MORE xD tbh, which one do you prefer ? well, about the matches, I'd say UPSB > GPC (2.5-0.5 or 3-0) and FPSB > KMSC (3-0)
