Critical Edge: A Brief History of Banning...

CAS = Blanket ban. Common sense should say this. Having the game and playing it competitively are two differant things, you don't buy a FG to immediately become a tournament player, much less if you only get the game purely to play a gimmicky guest. I will do everything in my power to ensure a universal DJ ban in Britain.

Well, I haven't been here long but...DJ is a CAS style, right? And CAS is banned from TO's, right? I know you mention the fact that Tekken players may be drawn to the game due to the inclusion of DJ, but I don't think it would be a case of the floodgates opening. I think this needs to be nipped in the bud before the game officially drops, we don't want a split community on Day -1. The game has everything going for it right now and it's up to the community to get behind it and push it out there. I say ban it, Jaxel, outright ban it.

Do we really need to wait to find out what EVO's rules are? This should be a no-brainer.
If they wanted to attract Tekken fans to SC, they should have just added Bob to the game. Devil Jin barely gets played in the game he actually belongs to, and now we are going through all of this nonsense of adding him into SC just because some guy may want to play him. Really?
And if we're already expecting EVO to not allow CAS, then why are we waiting to make a decision? Just make it so we can move on.
But enough people have made valid points in regards to keeping the ban in place. All I ask is to conclude this by Monday so I don't have to wake up on Tuesday with this still being an issue. The two rule solution doesn't work because not only will it be a mess but people will need to ask at every tournament what ruleset is being used, and using a save file doesn't work because you still need to make sure that the proper custom is being used (whatever that is, don't ask me who is going to decide on that one) and when other data is tied to that save file that will get lost once overwritten which I am sure that people would not like at all, especially if they are volunteering their console for use.
Ex. My online record was tied to my save file in SC4 which I did not know was the case until my first PS3 died and had to start with a new file and back at Level 1.
