Due to Jared's usage of racial slurs, insults, and having poor sportsmanship, he is disqualified from this match.

Let this be a lesson to everyone, be a good sport. And don't try to lie yourself out of situations, you'll roll a 1 on a Bluff check, or maybe even a 0 or -1. Jared was present during the time he had agreed with Skull as a witness, I recalled it too, but after the decision went against his favor. He had gone through poor sportsmanship, claiming he was cheated out of the match.


 * Jared had actually agreed to the autoresolve and was okay with this.
 * Skull agreed to the autoresolve and was okay with this.
 * Nights had agreed to the autoresolve and was okay with this.

Shortly put, think your s**t through before you agree to something, we'll all remember you agreeing to it. It's your damn fault if you lose from an autoresolve at Ardent and Kaze's decision, because they look at it at an unbiased note. Harassing users and starting s**t after losing a match is unacceptable by any regards. You're not innocent in this case if you do, as much as you'd like to think.

This is everyone's warning on this case, sportsmanship is always something I want in the Aetherium tournaments, and it's even in the rules and part to being a good RPer or writer in general. You accept your losses and faults, you need to know that as much as people like your character or you like your character, your character isn't God and/or can't win every fight that they battle. Even if it isn't your decision. You had trusted the autoresolve to work it out, abilities, weaknesses, strengths, etc. Which in this case, a character had lost.

In professional sports, you'd get FINED for unsportsmanlike conduct, this is one such example, refusing to accept a loss, and blaming everyone else for it, in my tournaments, unsportsmanlike conduct is included as a bit of an universal rule, if you make a b**chfit over losing a match, enough to have a mod warn you three times and for you to vanish because s**t starts to get real, that's typically you self-ejecting yourself out of the game. Which in professional standards, is a better thing to do, but seeing your money's on the line. Simply keep it cool, and take it in. In my tournaments? Act too unsportsmanlike, and you'll get the boot.

Thanks for reading, and let's make this a good tournament. --Sol
