Responding to the IEM: RMR AMs choice of location
We (or I) take accountability for not meeting the expectations we are held to, or should uphold ourselves. It’s very simple, the Americas RMR should have taken place from either North or South America. I am not here to point towards excuses or add deeper rationale behind a poor decision, we simply were too slow in taking the appropriate action which led to the tournament taking place in a visa-neutral country.
At this point, we can’t reverse this, for any teams wanting to arrive earlier we are working on connecting them to or suggesting potential boot camp locations to optimise conditions ahead of the competition. Not our remedy but what we'll go through.
It’s important we get these things right, we got caught up in optimising logistics and we lost sight of what was the right thing to do / best for the community.
