It would merely be yet another example of the drearily predictable human failing of being willing to condemn people as guilty in the absence of proof or even evidence. | ||

How many of you can actually say that if someone offered you potentially thousands upon thousands of dollars to throw a game you wouldn't do it? C'monnnnnnnnnnn I seriously hope that's a really a bad attempt at trolling. You represent just about everything that's wrong with the world. | ||

I was meaning that the extra 1.9 million(or actually it was 900k, seeing as the 2 million was supposed to be banked in 2 years) doesn't really add that much. Yes you can buy an extra house and a couple of extra cars. But if you love what you're doing and you're not a materialist you gain nothing by taking the bribe and risk destroying everything. I guess some people are materialistic enough though to want more than 1 house and expensive cars which don't add anything. People just seem to think that money = happiness even though it isn't that simple. And selling out for the sake of being a millionaire will probably end up being a bad decision if you have any sort of decency and respect for yourself and the game you play. | ||

Second part talks about how he lost a lot of money on a match he couldn't lose, and got in contact with a pro who told him the gist of what happened And then there's the list. And he talks about who will leave the team as a scapegoat. Not everyone gets punished. Lastly he says that players slumping right now are mostly because of the extensive investigation going on behind the curtains, and that everyone will see what he means once we get to the starleague finals. | ||

You do know there is a whole Life after those 3-4 years being paid 100k? 2million isnt gonna buy you a second house, it's going to allow you to spend your whole *LIFE* confortable if you're careful. Cause you Never know what's gonna happen next. Stop thinking about *bling bling i show off with my big cars* and think about Life a bit  it could even be of use to your dear parents or family etc... | ||

Time has passed and everything seemed to be ok... Now when it comes to this I should be surprised, however I'm not. In any Pro-sport things like these happen in larger or smaller scales. Now considering the huge presence that StarCraft has in Korea and the slave camp conditions that the players have to train/live in daily the outcome is inevitable. Long-term inhuman conditions in general lead to extended moral decay. | ||
