Of course it's objectively speaking unfair to blame Yumi for something we have no proof of whatsoever that she did, which is why I admitted half of my accusations were groundless. That doesn't change her ill conduct, though, which is the basis for my dim view of her. In addition to her infamy. It all together led me to conclude she doesn't possess the spirit of sportsmanship. She only possesses a desire for the title of the Queen. That's nothing but greed if it's not accompanied by good conduct.

If memory serves, Chihaya used the disruptive cheering during the group play. That was team sport, despite all of them having an individual game. But in the end the team with three wins was victorious, regardless of the exact individuals who won those three games. So, the morale shout was every bit justified. Also, those games were held with the hall open for the audience, so a certain amount of noise was given anyway.

If Chihaya clearly tried to cheat I'd be quite amazed and also sad. She's not that kind of a person, so I'd blame poor script writing. If her opponent clearly tried to cheat - well, I think my past posts have made it evident how I'd feel.
