Pokemon Go servers have taken a beating thus far since launching worldwide and currently users are not able to log on or even register to play.
The winner of the Pokémon Go Championship grand finals in Orlando was stripped of their title, allegedly for 'unsportsmanlike conduct' during their victory celebration. The celebration involved the winner removing their headset, standing up, and pumping their fists before shaking hands with their opponent. Many believe the ruling was excessive and that winner's victory celebration was tame compared to celebrations by winners in other competitive games.
There are people that get offended seeing others just enjoying a moment, or enjoying a hobby, or just having fun.
Can someone explain to me what is so problematic with this? I watched video multiple times and all I see dude having bit of celebration. None of his actions felt aggressive or seem like they symbolize anything... Like winning sure deserves bit of celebration like that. I mean who wants to live in the world where you aren't allowed to be excited or have bit of burst of happiness when you win? Like was he supposed to act like emotionless robot? He should be allowed to have bit of his victory "hell yeah" moment, even if it is before shaking hands with opponent. Like it is not like he didn't shake hands or whatnot. And it is not like he is like some super serious government official to have to stick to protocol to a letter. This whole thing is just ridiculous.
Pokémon GO fans are waking up on Wednesday morning a little more nervous. Niantic, the developers of the augmented reality game, has decided to sell the game
You can't play Pokemon Go in China, but I needed a digital souvenir.
Been trying for the past 20 minutes, no luck.
Been off and on all day.
Yesterday afternoon was rough, but I was good all evening. Earlier this afternoon I was able to use it for about an hour before it dropped, and has been down ever sense.
WHY WON'T YOU LET ME CATCH EM' ALL!!??
Guess the game is to popular for them to handle
They should have been more prepared for this.
Doesn't this happen whenever a game gets super popular at launch?
