LMAOOOO i wishhh im not sure how much context youd have but twitch (the streaming website) held a minecraft tournament with 100k in prize money and the last game was.... complicated connect four ๐ it was supposed to be best out of three. the last two players however stalemated on the first round twice and asked twitch to actually split the prize money (70k for the winner so about 41k for each of them including their previous winnings) because the event had been so unbelievably messed up and glitchy and tiring that Sneegsnag (one of the last two players) was like "theyre stuck in here with us now" and they genuinely just. stopped playing and chatted with each other until twitch decided to split the winnings.
looking at twitter and its like... what do you want them to do??? "thius is so boring" they stalemated TWICE. theyre probably gonna stalemate again and again or MAYBE move on. its so obvious they both are pretty equal in skill and both deserve it. theyve both agreed to split it its literally twitch and the organizers either being rude or scrambling to fix everything. also didnt they literally add another ten for fourth and fifth?????
#ros talks#but they genuinely hunger gamesed it and just sat and waited until they got the concede from twitch#it was a whole fucking thing#APOLOGIES IF THIS WAS A JOKE AND IM EXPLAINING TO SOMEONE WHO KNOWS IT ALL ALREADY#IVE GOT THAT AUDHD#also the context for "add another ten for fourth and fifth is originally#players ranked 3-20 were only supposed to get 1k in winnings#and it was supposed to be a 1v1 between the last two for the 70k#and 2nd place was supposed to get 5k#but i think a glitch happened so they decided to to TWO 1v1s instead#so then it was 1st place gets 70k 2nd gets 12k 4th and 5th get 6k everyone else in the top 20 gets 1k#so they had to add an extra 10k to the prize pool#either way the whole thing was a huge fucking mess#what happens when you put 100 thousand dollars in front of a ton of minecraft gamers#but im glad it was sneeg (im biased) and shadoune cause they both were really nice and sportsmanlike about the whole thing#and i know sneegsnag has his newborn daughter to care for and he needs a fucking break fr#and shadoune seemed super sweet so im glad it was them out of the whole event#rather than some#cough...unsavory individuals (millionares who shouldnt have even qualified for the event cause they stream on COMPLEATLY DIFFRENT PLATFORMS#and already have fucking cheez-its money from plastering his face all over the boxes#anyway i did NAWT mean to have the tags get this long once again i am so sorry if you already know
