The existence of a thread like this is necessary. Otherwise, there would be no shame in the very unprofessional and irresponsible acts that have been accused. If the acts were dishonest, then I hope that discussions like these make the perpetrators realize they aren't more clever than the community.

I always like to give people the benefit of the doubt. However, it just doesn't make sense that you would spend all the effort to tell 15 teams not to select you, but that you would accept if selected. When I heard about the incident on Saturday afternoon, the first comment I had was about how illogical this was, and this explanation confirms that. I think a lot of people feel as if nothing has been resolved. That's okay though, see my first paragraph. This shouldn't actually concern most people.
