The company PGL Esports S.R.L., which organized the largest Dota 2 tournament, The International, made a mistake in spelling the name of the city Copenhagen on its merchandise.

This year's The International took place in the Danish capital from September 4 to 15. The organizers prepared a variety of souvenirs for fans, including clothing. However, a user on the Reddit platform noticed that the name of the city Copenhagen was misspelled with a double "p" as "Coppenhagen" on this "merch."

Instead of acknowledging the mistake and reissuing the merchandise, PGL Esports S.R.L. chose an unconventional approach. Users discovered an attempt to alter the name of Copenhagen on Wikipedia by inserting the double "p." This was recorded in the edit history of the online encyclopedia.

An investigation into the IP address from which the changes were attempted led to the office of PGL Esports S.R.L. This triggered a new wave of criticism for The International organization, which had already faced complaints from viewers earlier.

The esports community reacted to the situation with humor. Players suggested rebranding the company as PPGL Esports and advised them to pay attention to the Hungarian name of the city, which indeed uses the double "p."
