So because the pay scale is smaller(Naniwa still gets paid to play by both quantic and gom for this tourny. and gom makes money off ads and selling the stream) that makes it okay? So until E sports team can own stadiums its okay for players to say fuck it and not play? | ||

So if you suffer a bad loss in the groups early on, do you think you can bounce back? It doesn't matter to me in other games if I win or lose the previous match, I just treat each match like it's the same thing, and give it my best. Very interesting, what Naniwa said before in interview :D | ||

Well we've certainly created more buzz that what would have been achieved after a standard game. How is it not disrespect? I paid money and stayed up till early in the morning to watch these games, and he probe rushes? I don't see how thats not disrespect? | ||

I am very disappointed by naniwa's fans. actually majority cant see why the koreans have made such a big fuss. I wouldnt say im happy but im not disapointed eithier, the game was for nothing, nani gained nothing from winning or losing, the person he was playign also gained nothing. People are also commenting that apparently hes a performing monkey and he had to play 100% to win everys ignle time he plays!!! People are also annoyed that Idra plays like this at times but its ok but nto for others... Plus MC can come accross as BM but if MC wasnt like that we would not love him anywhere near as much :D Some are happy with Nani as he is different and a underdog even more so now... and people thrive on that and love a good underdog and badass!!! Also for people saying he should be punished he never refused to play he played just rushed with workers. He probably would of lost more playing out a game, losing then having all the Korean teams(who with the comments seemed to have it in for Nani already, and this was just the icing on the cake) analyse and go through his games.. I cannot wait for Code S now!!! If Nani wins or loses the celebrations are going to be fantastic and actually will make me watch MORE!!!!! | ||

So until E sports team can own stadiums its okay for players to say fuck it and not play? Actually, more what I meant was, if the teams don't play, they lose additional revenue. If they continue to lose, fewer fans will buy tickets to the final games of the season that don't matter and they will lose additional revenue. There's more incentive for the teams to continue to try to play well and win. The line, "IT'S FOR THE FANS" implies benevolent connotations to me at least. I was just pointing out that that's not necessarily true. Also, in some contracts aren't there additional bonuses for certain performance benchmarks, such as a player getting more money for rushing a certain distance in the season, or the number of sacks and so on? I would imagine that also increases personal desires to play hard all season long for some players. At the point in the "season" of this bo1 group b play we're talking about, Naniwa did not lose additional revenue by not playing his hardest, did not affect who advanced from group play, and, I'm going out on a limb here, didn't have a rider for specific performance. | ||

Koreans are upset because the word Pro gamer means more then just someone being paid. "That's what Koreans mean when they say he doesn't deserve 2be called progamer, lack of core values attributed to a pro in Kor. understanding" Quoted from a retweet by Milkis. This mixed with MC's tweets perfectly describe how I feel about this situation. and I'll say it again, to me Naniwa acted like the annoying brat throwing a tantrum in the toy aisle because he didn't get his toy. Its pathetic. | ||

i used to have respect for him, but to totally disregard naniwas feelings and insulting him in such a idiotic fashion have really made me change my mind about him. | ||

Naniwa is not being treated unfairly. If this were a korean they'd be in just as much deep shit, if not more so. Naniwa got away with saying MLG was a joke tournament on the main stage, but me just imagining someone doing that in the GSL.... Yeah, they'd be kicked off their team and banned from pro gaming. | ||
