    DMM Controversy

    Did anyone watch the DMM Invitational III?

    Woox was tanking hits away from the main zone but apparently Jagex considered it cheating and gave the title to someone else.

    What do you think? Should Woox be punished for outsmarting Jagex?

    Reddit is blowwwwwwwwwwing up. I expect a lot of backlash because Woox is pretty well known.

    @I Bleed Duke Blue

    Do you have a video of what happened to Woox? I wasn't watching :(

    EDIT: Nevermind, found the tweet. Not sure why he was disqualified.

    Scammed 10k, That NPC has been in DMM since the first season, If they didn't want it to be usable they should of disabled it.

    Edit: Woox on Twitter not sure if it's real or not :p

    If you think he should have won then you're undermining everything Jagex has attempted to do. It's a PVP tournament, he didn't fight and tried to win in a scummy manner. I'm glad he didn't win

    Apparently Mod Ash is paying Woox out of his own pocket. That win was fair and square; no where in the rules does it say "you can't win in a scummy way."

    Yea and they made multiple changes to avoid situations that so it should have been clear before hand that this would get you disqualified. Just because something slipped through the cracks and he took advantage doesn't mean he should have won. If he was some random no name (like the last winner) i guarantee everyone would be mad.

    Good for Ash. Fair and square? You're kidding.

    DMM Controversy

    It happened in the first season when RRobert was a nobody and won by tick eating and then Jagex decided they'd give it to second place, There was a huge uproar.. Jagex is way too inconsistent with this stuff, Doesn't allow it, Allows it, Doesn't allow it.

    Sorry to burst your very delicate bubble, but life isn't fair and square lol. He won while abiding every rule. That's a win.

    DMM Controversy

    Like i said before, they made changes to avoid it. Those changes were basically saying that this kind of stuff wouldn't be allowed going forward.

    He won fair and square... Life isn't fair and square... Make up your mind. He would've won a pvp tournament by not fighting riiiight....

    It's a player vs player tournament, not a use a merchant NPC to unnote food and outeat the gas tournament.

    If it was really a PVP tournament they shouldn't have it always decided by gas anyway. It's an asinine mechanic. Should be used intermittently to force fights but it shouldn't stay there the entire time.

    All DMM ends up being at the end is outeating, Woox just figured out a better way of outeating people.

    I feel bad about ash offering woox that money, go check out reddit if anyone hasnt. For those who aren't as familiar with reddit then simply good "reddit 2007 scape" and it should be at the top

    Classic Jagex.. Overlook something and punish someone for it.

    The whole mode is great but they released it WAY too early. There's been nothing but silly problems like this since they did.

    Definitely Jagex fault and not woox, as he only used the game mechanics provided in the tournament.

    exactly what I was thinking, Jagex should've thought it out and made it a rule prior to the event
