The first round of Group C saw Crack Clan tie against Aquintra.The plant was made when Aquintra were defending on dust2 and Crack Clan planted the bomb in a position to be defused from long A. When Aquintra tried to defuse it first with one player, then the second, they both had a bug where the defuse timer restarted over and over again, ending up with the bomb blowing up.
The match ended 15-15 and after reviewing in-eye demos, the tournament admins on site rule to subtract three rounds from Crack Clan, based on this "bug plant". This meant a 15-12 win and three points going to Aquintra.

Right after the admins made their call, Crack Clans Niko "naSu" Kovanen said:
"In the 12 years I've been playing Counter-Strike, I've never seen this "bug".
This put Crack Clan in a difficult position, as they are now in desperate need of points, in order to advance from the group stage. Crack Clan are currently facing DTS.chatrix, a match that very well could eliminate the team from the tournament, depending on the outcome.
