PAX East, broke my fibula rendering me disabled, WCS was a shock to the system that's for sure, trying to prevent Miya from retiring,, a large portion of focus was on GSTL, I produced SHOUTcraft America, SC2L, the ongoing search for a Zerg.... It all got to be so much, which is why I took on an assistant manager. Even though I don't get paid a dime to run this team I've always tried to run it like a person who does. I'm just grateful that now I have an assistant who should help avoid instances like this in the future. | ||

I'm glad you have some help now. | ||

Oh well, here's hoping that it provides a lesson to everybody involved to communicate better in the future. | ||

I do think it would be wise for you to separate TB from the team. He seems good at generating attention. I don't think it's the attention thats good for the team, might grab him some more followers. But I digress. I think your post was excellent, and you lived your sentiment by communicating and not simply flaming those who don't know everything. Better to inform then flame. JimmiC you're an idiot and you did nothing but lie and flame your way through 8 pages of drivel in the other thread, somehow I don't think we're gonna be taking you too seriously. | ||

It seems some people here have no clue how much money running a team costs every month. They'd probably have a heart attack if they find out how much WW spent on DH Winter for example (2 sf4 players, 5 man csgo team, 6 sc2 players and 2 managers). And HSC and EMS were in that same month as well. On a barely related note. Personally, I think asking for handouts and donations is screwed up if you can do without. Teams asking for donations to get team houses or event support give me a headache. There's teams that can barely stay afloat, let them ask for donations. They actually need it. | ||

Well, silver lining is that this will give the team a bit more 'down time' so they can come back firing on all cylinders for Dreamhack. Axiom FIGHTING! | ||

 No point to hate on either one people just have to accept whats happen. (the moral of the story is pretty much spot on) I hope that a lot of people will learn about how awesome Dennis is. What if you had done a fund raiser like MVP did, was the timespan just too short? A Axiom Shoutcraft fund raiser can bring in a lot, like TB speculating doing when the team was formed. Why haven't this been done, even if TB and others are fine with shoveling money the fund raisers could be used for unexpected mishaps to help support. Edit: Also best of wishes to Crank. | ||
