Match starts at GameGune are now being decided by the teams, as the organizers let them decide rather than sticking to the announced schedule.

Prior to the Consolidation Final between Natus Vincere and fnatic, GameGune organizers confronted HLTV.org that the match would be starting at 15:30CET, instead of the scheduled time, 16:00CET. HLTV.org has earlier stressed to the organizers, that matches started before the scheduled time is one of the worst things you can do.

Just twenty minutes later, we were once again informed that the match would start earlier, now at 15:20CET. When confronted with HLTV.org’s opinion once again, GameGune organizers responded "We don't care about spectators, it is better for us and for the players".

Starting matches earlier than scheduled has been a problem throughout most of days two and three. Letting teams decide when a match should start, equals to the teams in a football match wanting to start the match a little earlier, only because they want to. Imagine tuning in on the World Cup final and first half was already played.
