Actually, I am somewhat of an interested party in this matter. =) I decided not to write to Kash` in ICQ, I’ll write it right here: I just found out about these events in ICQ from Sky.
Throughout the tournament, we communicated quite a lot — both when we played and after that. There was not a single instance of unsportsmanlike behavior — the person behaved appropriately and politely; how we played against each other is a completely different matter. The generator didn't decide in my favor there; the opponent got a more than playable hand, while I got a bare minimum, nothing more...
Regarding the organizers' decision on the tournament — I won't argue, you guys know better (especially since I'm quite satisfied with 3rd place; first would be better, of course, but third is not bad either); but I can say for sure that banning a person from the forum for such violations — formal and somewhat silly — is not comme il faut at all =)
