Thanks for all the support once again. After researching and organizing my thoughts, I am posting my official entire experience at this tournament, proposing rule changes for the future, and looking over the current state of judging as a whole.

Man, it's gonna be awkward when the new battle system is implemented in @playpokemon tournaments and every time you win you're issued a game loss for your avatar's disruptive celebration #playpokemon #GBL #gobattleleague #Pokémon #PokémonGo

@playpokemon We want genuine expressions of emotion.... but don't shake the table. Ooooookay

Just want to give a huge shout-out and thank you to the man himself, @Firestar73_ , for taking the time to come over to my house this morning to talk about the Orlando Regionals.

We recorded an interview talking about the whole situation and it gives an incredible amount of insight into what went down, the state of competitive Pokemon, etc.

I am waiting to confirm some things before I post it, but I'm hoping the judges do a proper investigation and overturn their decision to give him the trophy he deserves.

I have been lurking on this situation (I think it’s literally the funniest thing ever with how viral it went)

I’ve been thinking and realized I LITERALLY had the same exact popoff when I won NAIC like LOL what a joke

Hello everyone, I am incredibly thankful for the support directed my way. I have a direct account of my experiences releasing soon in an interview, which I will link when it’s out. For the moment, please use the support link if you disagree with the ruling as well. Love yall ❤️

So here's a live look with a close up of the headphones making contact on the desk. This had to be a decision that came from the higher ups as an attempt to be "consistent" with their ruling based on the incident that happened a day prior (that video is here https://t.co/JtNajBvSQp )...

It's only natural for players dedicated to the game to pop off a little after a major win, especially their first one. Being penalized for such a harmless celebration makes no sense

this is not how we grow the game

[manintheplanet @manintheplanet1]

This is beyond the pale. How is a natural reaction to winning your first regional unsportsmanlike? Especially considering there's been more excessive and contrived celebrations by top players that are acceptable? #justiceforfirestar

After everything that's happened over the weekend, the game loses and DQs from popping off, not just before you've "officially" won a round (TCG) but legit after you've won the entire regional (GO) feels so insanely bad.

[Wil Hud @JustWilHud]

You see how much firestar was shaking? Clearly nervous and pulled a win against one of the world’s best. Being on stage is so tough, but then winning a game 5 reset? You can’t be excited for that?
Absolutely terrible ruling.

[Jacob @YACOBERVITCH]

This is the only result I'll accept from Orlando

Shame, shame and shame #JusticeForFirestar

[DanaDame @TheDanaDame]

This is an absolute JOKE! In no way does this look like an inappropriate celebration. @playpokemon what are you all doing!!???
