Oh boy, I wasn’t going to make a huge deal out of people posting stuff here that shouldn’t be posted here, however, I will make a big deal out of people blatantly ignoring requests, directions and warnings by the TO and others from the CD Team.
Following IcePack’s post I will regard this as noted for now. From now on official warnings will be given and if they are ignored, your clan may end up with an infraction. Not to mention the other measures the CD Team has available.
If you are confused or not sure if you should post whatever you would like to say, it’s likely that this thread is not the proper place. Below you’ll see the relevant posts by the CD Team about this:

This thread is not the place to file reports of abuse or infractions, nor is it a place to discuss those issues. The proper way is to contact the TO, which is me, Lindax.
Please leave this up to us and stop the discussion (and mudslinging) here.

Maybe I should make myself clearer: Anybody posting anymore about this issue will face consequences, as well as their clan.

Finally have a few minutes to catch up on the goings on etc around here.
Theres a lot going on, so I'll try to be concise & clear about things.
1) if you have concerns about sitting abuse, the proper venue is a C&A report just like any other site sitting abuses. If the Admin team have questions or need clarification from the clan team on specifics, they'll contact me as I am the lead person for general clan disciplinary issues. If any abuse or issues are deemed to be found, that would then be relayed to the TO who can make the determination on what (if any) additional measures need to be taken as it relates to the tournament. But Lindax is correct, the place to report it / discuss that matter is not in the CL8 general thread.
If you want to make the TO aware of your C&A case, you can PM him with a link to the thread. If you want to get discussion on the matter as it pertains to the C&A case there, you can post a link here in the main thread as its event related but the discussion / debate should be taken there.
2) If you want to talk about general sitting issues, again this isn't the place. I'm happy to split the discussion off from here and will do so momentarily, but the place to have a general discussion is creating a new thread. If the discussion leads to a group wanting to change the rules, the place to do that would be the CDF.
3) if a team member asks you to do something, or refrain from it, please try to comply with the request. If you feel like any request that the team has made is unreasonable, the way to handle it is not to argue or continue on with the discussion that has been requested to be stopped. You should PM me, and if the request being made doesn't make sense, is unreasonable, or not in line with clan policies and procedures etc I will speak to the team member directly and make a post about it. But openly ignoring a request made or arguing about it (regardless of whether the request was in the wrong in the first place) is just a good way to get yourself a warning. Appeal the decision, dont argue it.
I hope that helps clarify the questions / issues that have come up.
Thanks,
IcePack

In addition:
4) If you would like to report a post in these tournament threads, you can do the by PM, to me, or you can use the little triangle with the exclamation mark in the top of the post.
5) These tournament threads are primarily for recording the progress of the tournaments, as well as for posting information about the tournament in question.
Posts that are irrelevant to the tournament, are not beneficial, have nothing to add, etc., have no place in these specific tournament threads. Nor do posts that have no other intention than to stir the shit by being obnoxious, annoying or provoking.

Some more comments about stuff that came up in some of the posts:
If a clan were to refuse to play a round, or another clan, they would be disqualified from the tournament. You cannot pick and choose who you play.
Standings are updated once a round is completed.
