@Toddfatters0n@lolsaltysurrah From all the accounts I've heard nobody has a name or identity, and tournament organizers can't give up that information. I don't know about other people but I appreciate everyone bringing light to the situation
Lots of questions and people hypothesizing about what happened today - mostly because my husband is currently 7-0 and contending for best of LeBlanc. Here's a thread of information and I'd really appreciate visibility so more people can be informed and vigilant- #RQLA#riftbound
Riftbound is early enough that stuff like this can be stomped out immediately. As men, we have to not let other men feel safe doing this shit. If you witness anything like this, embarrass the guy, call him out on the spot. Make it known they are not safe to do this shit.
@Chosler@socat42 You are fine, my whole goal is to make this as public and inform as many people as possible so that people can be more vigilant and call these scumbags out. I'm okay responding and letting people know, if you have any other questions let me know
I did not want to have to talk about this publicly. But the reason we got that announcement at the pre-rq was because I was groped going to my R2 match. I'm okay. I'm angry about it. I'm disgusted that someone is spreading misinformation and invalidating my experience as a victim.

His opponent play in the morning. This is a sucky situation for all parties, but please don't blame us or the judges because how do you even handle something like this? If you can please inform all female friends and try to let them know. I don't want this to continue to occur.
Then the solution the judges had were byes for the both of us due to the severity and police being involved. In round 8 we didn't get to our opponents until 40 minutes into the round, in which we were given a choice to play tonight or tomorrow. Alex and -
@GYATarina Alex's opponent wanted to wait until the morning. Everyone's in a real shit situation here. I'm just informing you here because this situation needs to hopefully be publicized so there's a greater effort to stop it! Let me know if you have any questions 🙂
@GYATarina Proper punishment could be taken. The judges were trying to be as considerate as possible because obviously this is a crime. That led to him getting a bye for round 7. We finished the police report 40 minutes into Round 8 and my opponent and I played but -
