Maybe if all this happened in US. In Korea, this will destroy him.

On the current topic: Tossgirl is meh, I suspect that people who consider her extremely hot suffer from a syndrome when men have skewed perception of a woman when perceiving an environment where the said woman is the only one or one of the very few, see military. Maybe there is a name for this illness?

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder my friend. Some people might find that a chick who loves SC and has a wicked APM as hot (plus she is pretty good lookin' too) - note what type of website we are on right now.

Now, back to the savior business... so he was like the godfather eh?
Wow, I guess if you are going to do something, be it illegal or not, might as well be at the top?

I have to admit that this is pretty interesting. I do not know whether I should be impressed or disgusted with Savior. Poor Hwasin for being such a pussy, he wife will probably be kicking his ass if he gets married.

The third trial of the match-fixing scandal took place on July 7th, where Jin X was called as a witness.

Jin first got the suggestion of match-fixing in the beginning of December 2009. On a chat in Battle.Net, Ma X told him: “I’ve been troubled recently. A hyung I know is doing match-fixing, he wants me to lose on purpose, and I don’t know if I should do it.” That’s when Jin first learned of match-fixing. Ma also said: “That hyung (a soccer player) is doing bets. If you throw a game, you can get rewarded. I was hesitant at first too, but I did it in the end.” He then asked Jin: “Do you have any games?”

Jin replied: “I have an OSL game, I’m already eliminated.” Ma then said: “If I did it, you should do it too. If you lose, you can get 3 000 000 won.”

After that, Jin, according to the agreement, lost the game on purpose by making control errors. The day after the game, Ma gave Jin the money at a café near Jin’s dorm.

Jin’s second fixed game was slightly different. The day before the SPL game on 2009 December 30th, Ma texted Jin and told him the opponent is going to play 2 factory management, but Jin still lost the game. After that, Ma said: “The hyung I know bet on you winning, and he lost 20 000 000, all because you lost. You should pay him back somehow. Do you have any games?”

Jin said: “Even though I know the opponent’s opening, it’s still possible to lose in the macro game, I can’t guarantee that he won’t lose money.” But he also said: “After hearing that I caused him to lose money, I’m a bit guilty, so I told him I’ll lose the MSL game the next day and amend it.”

After that, Jin again lost a game by making control errors according to the agreement, and again got 3 000 000 won in the same method as the price for losing.

Also, 2 days before a game on 2010 January 19th against Park X, Ma texted him: “Don’t worry, someone will take care of it.” Then, he relayed some information that Won X gave him.

Jin admitted his match fixing to his team’s manager in February of this year. He expressed that beyond these two games, he didn’t fix any other matches.

Key:

Games in question:

One thing I'm confused about.. how did Savior know that Leta was going to be playing a 2 factory management game in the Dec 30th SPL game? If I'm interpreting the article correctly it says "Before the SPL game on Dec 30th, 2009, Ma texted Jin and told him his opponent is going to play 2 factory management.." and below it shows the Dec 30th SPL game as "Hwasin vs Leta" so this suggests Savior knew what Leta's strategy was going to be.. yet supposedly Leta was not involved in this whole match fixing scandal.. am i missing something here??

Pretty much half of Leta's team was match-fixing. It isn't too hard to ask one of them.

Poor Leta

I wonder how Kal feels about his MSL win and how his relationship with Hwasin is now.

man, after reading that i felt pretty bad for Hwasin, who knows what would've happened if he didn't "pay back" that guy by losing more games. this is so depressing =\ and the way that savior was talking, it's as if he has been doing it for a while and was getting "good" at it

doesnt take away from ma's accomplishments though. Pete Rose never bet on his own team, and Michal Jordans father got wacked because of his gambling debts, oh and ever hear of the phantom punch? Savior is still Savior.

Sorry, I'd be hard pressed to find somebody 1000x hotter than tossgirl



Bisu is 1000x hotter than tossgirl.

I'm willing to give Hwasin the benefit of the doubt for his game versus Kal on Odd-Eye.


Attacking goons with unsieged tanks and vultures?

Maybe siege mode wasn't researched yet and/or he got overconfident at the start of the battle.

i would bet that the unknown "hyung" is actually savior, it's the classic "my friend" technique
