Holy crap. Really? I hope that's not true but I can totally see how it could happen. Some of these kids are paid close to nothing.

Well, given the illegal starcraft betting incidents.....
I guess we know a lot of who was actually involved here (besides some of the crappier players demoted for sucking).
Upmagic, lux, sangho, etc.
I guess by next month or so with roster changes we will see the rest of the demotions for illegal gambling.

We dont 'know', we assume. They could have been moved for simply the accusation of throwing games, and after things settle down and get sorted out they may be back. Some could simply have been moved for performing poorly.

Yes, we don't know but it is very suggestive isn't it. The changes in PL, big changes in proleague rosters. Also, their names were leaked before. Just would seem as a huge coincident. I would love for all this to be just coincident but too be honest it all seems to suspicious.
All I hope that Stork, Jaedong and Bisu weren't really involved in it even though they are also under scrutiny...

stork needs gold for WOW account, bet he is in on this.

It has to suck double time for a legitimate player to be removed from the roster right now. You feel useless because you've failed as a player, AND the fans think you betrayed the team and broke the law.
A list of guilty players better be released later on, if only to definitively clear the names of the innocent (same with the affected matches).

All the more reasons to not to jump to conclusions based on rosters and word of mouth.
