Just when you think that people in the community couldn't get any lower something like this happens and for what? So a few people can claim internet fame for scamming an entire community? I don't know what's worst the perpetrators of this scam who then brag about it or the fanboys who jump on the bandwagon and support it. I think one person said it best and let me quote him....
Tsusai really didn't help matters by rubbing salt into the wound. Some people really sink low, the people who brag about how they benefit from it sink lower. - Capone
With that said Sony will not change precedence by taking an item from one player who won it officially during a Sony event and then giving it to another player based on a player run event.
However there is nothing stopping Rarebit or the powers that be from righting this situation and making Blazinwolf a new mask. It is not hard to do, just do it.
Assassin Skam ftl
I'm lost what happened?
To keep it sort and MOD friendly (jury seems to be on the war path these days)
Cap0ne, Ballak, and Zudrag hosted a tournament in which he promised to give away the rarest item on recursion. The prize for first place was to be (as he put it) The Assassin(no 's) Mask, which is the halloween mask not the real deal. However his post to announce the tourney all showed pictures of the assassin's mask, explaining what it is, what it does, and why its special. This made it easy for people to skip over or miss the fact that first prize was not the assassin's mask but just the Halloween mask. Once all was said and done he emailed the prizes and posted a comic making it out that this was his intention from the start.
Naturally people were upset about this, calling it a scam, CS was called in, and a lot of drama came about resulting in what you see now.

Can another mask not just be conjoured up for BW?
No mask is taken from a banned player, the tourney winner gets his prize, and everyone can go about their business.
Is there a cast iron rule that there can only be a certain number of masks per server? If so, is it right to for it to reside with a banned player?
The main problem with giving out another mask is that it could be used as precedent in future messes.
The more I think about it, the more I can see why adding another "item", regardless of what it is will cause futher problems. Let's say someone hosts a tourney with a Patchers Bandana as the prize, they don't have/give it, does that mean SOE need to provide the prize from a players tournament? that will be a future precendent that will cause problems if they added a entirely new mask.
What should have been done is the mask taken from Capone and given to blaze, as that's exactly what was advertised, and they are only trying to get away with it on a wording technicality.
I can see the problem the CSR face with that decision the more I think about it, and I'm dissapointed for Blaze on what has transpired. Regardless of what might happen or not, I'd happily send Blaze 30m from my refund of the entry fee, but I think we all know its got nothing to do with the actual info at all.
I hope you enjoyed your laugh at the communities expense Zudrag, Ballak and Cap0ne, enjoy your new found fame as being fraudsters and being the type of community members we could do less with.
