Icca championships are live. There is a control structure that makes
sure (or should) that nobody cheats.
Amateurs are supported. It is a competition that cannot be took over by
ONE company, since many companies and interest are focussed together,
each has the right to complain and to demand for a request and change.
The ssdf-list has no control structures, no tournament director, no
democratic control-structures where each interest group can complain.
No - you are talking about completely 2 different things enrique.
The one is SPORT, with all implications. The other stuff (ssdf) is
NOT sport.
