Crosspost from the Light results forum.
It took me an hour (currently 2:05 PM CST), but I have managed to produce proof that the disconnect in the drop which I was denied did occur before the timer ticked down to 9:00.
I was recording in OBS at the time when the crash occurred, but the video that I recorded was corrupt in the end. However, I was able to use mp4repair.org to restore the video and provide preview screens from the game in question. My time during this hour was spent sourcing how to repair an unfinished MP4 video.
In this screen grab, I have two frames. One of the lobby before the game and one of approximately 4/5 of the way through the video (being that the 3 preview screens are equally spaced out but do not include the beginning or end frames of the video). Total length of the recording including setup time in lobby and map loading/pregame countdown was 1:43. If we assume that the middle frame is infact the middle of the video, then the time spent in-game cannot possibly have exceeded 1:00 total. I did not pay the $43 to have the video mailed to me, so these preview screens are what I get.
The reason I am so salty about this is because I allowed my opponent to redrop once because he picked the wrong Firestarter, but was denied an automatic redrop according the rules of the tournament. At first, my opponent took the stance that DC = lost no matter the clock, but changed tone about the time being a factor after I quoted the rules. We spent a lot of time discussing the matter, so without more than my word vs his, I conceded.
EDIT: Also, DA FASTA did not produce a screenshot of the game that I disconnected. I am certain that the match might have lasted ~1:20 total since I DC'd while staring directly at him as I entered Theta, exactly as I fired my first laser volley.
EDIT2: He also claimed at one point that the time in-game when I dropped was 12:00, to which I reminded him it was a 10 minute game. If he assumed the timer was set at 15:00, then his claim that the game had already run for 3 minutes would have been a gross lie.
