Tipsout (100k Tourney Organizer) issues statement regarding streamers using RMT gold

[u/ResponsibleWeekend76]

“Hello @everyone

We have drafted our first set of rule modifications and will post them later tonight.

As a reminder to all, per the rules:

*As WoW:Forever is still an unsolved game, item/consumable bans may be modified at any time. The TFO team, at its sole discretion, may update, amend, or supplement this document at any time. Competitors are responsible for reading and understanding all of the rules, regulations, and policies dictated in this document.*

As always, there remains the possibility of future changes once level cap is raised as we continue collecting data on this new version of Warcraft. Please remain up to date on the rules at all time.

Separately, we have been made aware of a few suspect instances where competitor gold buying may have potentially taken place. We will be straightforward about this now: any explicitly confirmed instances of gold buying during our events will result in immediate disqualification and lifetime ban from any event we put on. We expect players continue to abide by the rules and Blizzard/Warcraft ToS. If you want to buy gold, open an IRA (not financial advice).”

There seems to be a chance the event organizers will remove certain streamers from the bracket due to the ongoing conversations around RMT, interested to see if they follow through with any actions.

I mean, it's their tournament so yes they can change the rules whenever they want? That goes without saying.

Well of course, but what they’re getting at is that we just read an essay that said absolutely nothing.

You guys are ridiculous

[u/Krond → u/typhoon_nz]

Sure... so then it amounts to "We commit to this being a legit tournament... but we totally upfront first thing want to state that we can backpedal on anything... including our commitment to this being legit."
