Agreed, in part.
Even If I couldn't even play this year due to my shity fps, I'm glad that the event got a system to kick away excesive lagers (although some of them weren't kicked but they still do lag). The game was smooth, fun and I think it was enjoyable as I could observe. Unfortunately many of those who applied could not play, and I feel bad for them including myself (not at all), but you have to accept that it is to keep a fair game, and this was a good way. Probably the next year, if there's another VW those players will be able to play.
