Real question: can you even override a game loss decided by judges? Because if the answer is no, why are we blaming players for a system they don't control? Also - people keep saying "competitive integrity" means playing the turn out to the very last prize card. But let’s be real, this 100% wouldn’t have been an issue at a table in the back of the room. A player pops off for five seconds on stream, then goes back and finishes the interaction. Game over. The only reason this became a "violation" is because TPCI treats their stream like a sanitized TV show. They want the hype of the big draw, but they punish the human reaction that comes with it. TPCI needs to decide if the stream is for celebrating the game or for enforcing corporate optics at the cost of the actual result. This is why Pokémon TCG will never be a true e-sport.
