What to do? So much happened and now I don't know what to do, or where to start. It's like a conspiracy and they were all set up from the beggining with set winners.
It was a free nintendo DS WFC championship with the game Club House Games, to take place on 3 consecutive Sundays, and the prizes are a Wii, a DS lite, a GBASP and some other smaller stuff. I showed up for my match, but the host didn't leave the room open long enough for me to join, so only 3 people out of 5 played. I immediately started complaining, and 2 DAYS of discussion later, an admin pops up and declares the winner of the 3 players game the definitive winner, and suspends my forum account.

Now I complained about one of the admin's EXTREMELY unfair decision, and he gagged me on the forum and are gagging me on IRC channel. I'm pissed because I wasted 2 weeks preparing for the tournament, and then I didn't even get a chance to play. The admin said that "the host can open the room at the match time and start it whenever he wants. Who didn't get to join had bad luck". This is NOT on the rules, and it makes no sense anyway. The rules only say that a player should be eliminated if he doesn't show up for the match (yes, the rules are loose like that, it doesn't even especify where to show up, so I posted on forum and was on IRC, since 1 hour prior to the match).
He said that stupid phrase after a lot of discussing between the players and absense of admins. Notice also that the host was always chosen by "oldest member on the forum".
I doubt there's anything legal that can be done because it was a free international tournament, but you should know what kind of people hang around those forums. NOBODY is seeing that it was unfair to start the match without everyone of the players that showed up. And now I can't even read the forums.
