YES and YES   2nd
This is NOT what the written tournament regulations state.  They actually state “Opposing team captains will be alerted of the pending dispute once a dispute is filed.”  Captains is plural and indicates that the captains from the opposing teams will BOTH be informed that that a dispute is being processed.  One is being informed and the other is being acknowledged.
3rd
 Two replays were submitted with the dispute   4th
Again this is NOT what the written rules/regulations state. 
“A resolution will be communicated with both involved team captains at least two hours prior to the start of the following round.”
Again you will notice that it states that a resolution will be communicated to BOTH involved captains.
5th
Though often used in the description of a legal proceeding, due process actually has a much broader scope of application.   In it formal definition per such sources as Webster's dictionary it is described as
“a course of formal proceedings carried out regularly and in accordance with established rules and principles”.   Since there are established written rules supposedly governing this tournament it is completely reasonable to expect them to be followed.   Oh well,  I am not particularly surprised that this is how this situation was “handled” considering how many other things are done at WG but I am disappointed.   Moving on to the next adventure in tournament play.
