OH look. Sorry for being a psychic as mentioned by someone above for saying TB will look silly for supporting Crank who, as I have just seen the text of the recorded call, is one disrespectful, lying kid.

And crank looks like crap again, this keeps getting better and better. TB is Crank disputing the way the phone call was transcribed?

Actually, the phone call does absolutely nothing but corroborate what Crank said already + make Crank look bad for disrespect. It's just that Jessica released it, so people think it's actually a big deal and supports her position when it's ... not. I mean, aside from the disrespect, I suppose, but in terms of hard facts, there is nothing in there that Crank didn't already cover.

Don't get me wrong I understand that it isn't anything huge, but the biggest blow may be the disrespect itself, at least in Korea.

I'm willing to believe that Crank thinks he was honest, that he really had no intent to 'ditch' SlayerS to seek fame and fortune abroad. But in effect, if what ended up happening looks exactly like that, how can Jessica be blamed for feeling betrayed? Which is not to say that I believe Jessica was justified for going nuclear with this entire situation, but there is definitely fault on Crank's part as well.

Just read the released phone conversation log regarding that "58 minute call". Looks summarized but article states to have all important facts in it at the best of the reporter's ability. Korean Source

My impression... Crank has victim mentality issues, maybe augmented by the situation he's in. If nothing's up by the next hour or two maybe I'll do a full translation.

We're not interested in commenting on drama for dramas sake, since it's literally killing eSports. We made a statement for a reason and we stand by that statement. It's as simple as that.

You might want to chill on the other threads though. No disrespect but at this point some people are practically baiting you and getting the response they want. If you think Jessica overreacted, then shouldn't you take a deep breath and show that you do things differently?

I fullheartly agree with your opinion, instead of looking to blame others, as management you should always start with yourself and then look further.

Instead all we read is finger pointing at others and not a single bit of self reflection. If you want to manage a team you also have to take responsibility in account be it good or bad.

Don't you think he is already behaving differently from Jessica?
Jessica is shitting on the careers of her former players, TB is defending his own player by placing his own name on the line for a player he has gotten less then 4 months (Not sure when crank join axiom but should be within this time frame I think)

I just dont understand this whole drama, and Koreans overall.

Manager accusing players of disrespect, looking for a chace to join foreigner team etc. Is it some sort of "crime"?. Unless they are going to sue each other, whats the point?

Im glad TB made that statement to support one of his players.
Oh, special tactics? You see, Its fine.

From the transcript I see it exactly the opposite way. Jessica and Boxer are not understanding that a manager ultimately has the responsibility for the team and Boxer didnt seem to take "his job" seriously at all while Jessica blames everyone except herself.

The fault on Crank's side could only be to change his mind after going home (which is interpreted as "lying" by Jessica and Boxer) for his neck problems and then noticing that he has to make money somehow. Both sides seem to agree that Crank said something about the problems of the players, but the managers didnt do anything and losing all of their sponsors really shows that something was rotten in that department anyways. So Crank might share a tiny bit of the blame, but only the blame of "pulling the trigger" (unintentionally) for the implosion of the team.

The call means absolutely nothing, same as the original statement from Crank. We are grasping for straws just because the truth is too obstructed.

This could still go either way. Since the call is not the complete affair. It also hangs on Jessicas word a that is as questionable as Cranks. Do you even remember how she wanted to sue the internet?

1. I can't stress how good it is to provide wirtten transcript of the video. I hate so much when some infromation is given only in audio (can't listen anywhere, much slower than reading).

2. I just wish everyone was so straightforward and reasonable as TotalBiscuit in dealing with things. This is all just a childish dispute full of unreasonable acts. hen TB comes in and says "we stand by the player no matter what" - I applaud to that!

What's wrong with that? As you might remember she was protecting Eve at the time, whose pictures were being posted on top of porn pictures. There's a law in South Korea that forbids these things on the internet and thus she's fully in the right to sue those persons that did such a thing. Please read up on a subject before ridiculing someone please.

Just another case of bad PR/slander from Jessica. This is fun. I am sorry slayers disbanded, since from now on Jessica cannot make such amusing mistakes :D

Publishing private correspondence to strengthen your position in a random internet dispute is undignified and says a lot about you.
