Who knows what these match-fixers might do if released into society? Simply banning them from e-sports and imposing fines to take back the money they earned illegally is simply not enough for these lowest of criminals. Also lol how's 2011, korea? This has been addressed countless times, but do you think they are getting punished only because they hurt the feelings of esports fans? seriously now?? this is about illegal sports gambling in S.Korea. | ||

These are adults - don't be mistaken. They understood why they were asked to throw the game, and did so to their financial gain. The punishment needs to be appropriate to the crime, and I'm afraid a fine is insufficient. | ||

Stop acting all superior, they actually do have another calendar in Korea and China as well and I guess you could argue that's a kind of time system, though I'm not that sure what the OP means. They have a lunar calendar, it amazes me how many people need to act superior about something they know absolutely nothing about or make a derogatory statements without backing it up. | ||

Lunar calendar is only used for special festivals and shits (Chinese New Year, Mid-Autumn Festival and so on, you name it). In general, all Asian countries still use the normal calendar that the whole world is using. | ||

Here, how's this for a FINAL clarification. I'm Korean. My parents live in Korea and I've lived in Korea half my life. We use the exact same calendar system as used in the US, Canada, Europe, etc (most of the world). However, we also have a "lunar calendar" that is similar/identical to the one used in China; however, for all uses and purposes, we use the normal calendar. Lunar calendar is so rarely used that it pretty much is nonexistent and unnoticed by foreigners. We use the exact same time system as used in the rest of the world. We just happen to be a few hours faster, obviously, due to the rotation of the earth. Don't be misled by the "age" thing, that's just a traditional way of counting our age, nothing to do with our time system whatsoever. | ||

You think he wouldn't know that korea uses gregorian calendar? There's been a lot of calendars through out history. Gregorian being one. Its legitimacy is a practical one, nothing more. People who never gave a shit about the roman catholic church, still don't give a shit when using their calendar. The only idiot here is the guy who said korea is a week off or something. | ||

I'm thinking about going to live down there so I can watch oov dominate all over again in a few years. | ||
