stratos you should be careful with statements like this....you really think sonic would screw his viewer for few peanuts? dont think so....

I think he means that the two parties were working on the sponsorship together, so the announcement was not based on unilateral wishful thinking by Sonic. I don't think he meant that Sonic screwed the viewers, because he actually loses from this.

I support Sonic in standing up to the company and not agreeing to w/e it was that he didn't want, but it hurts to get this announcement after all the anticipation, and on Christmas Eve and all.


Considering Sonic already made his viewers go pickup some kind of monkey3 tickets for the site and shit like this it's clear both sides were working on that together.


ye it was clearly stated that the changes of terms were requested by monkey3. i dont get why stratos is posting so much bullshit not even understanding korean and posting stuff he heard 3rd hand. sometimes if u dont have any clue u just have to stfu...thanks

I'm pretty sure Stratos does understand Korean, and is giving us the best, most up-to-date info he can. Your last comment was very caustic and offensive to someone who's doing his best, and whom you have misinterpreted. Do you really find it that hard to apologise that you have to go right in the other direction and be even ruder? Come on now.

"The contract was constantly revised by Sonic & Carry and the sponsor and both sides just couldn't come to a conclusion."
That's along the lines of what Horangnabi translated for us in the chat and from what I get it neutrally states that either side (probably Monkey3 in this case) suggests a change that is then either accepted or revised by the other side.

In my other statement, I was merely saying that it wasn't like Sonic arbitrarily decided to announce the sponsorship before it was a deal but since there was a cooperation present on other levels it was rather Sonic (and his viewers) getting screwed over by Monkey3 who then backed out of the deal - certainly not the other way around. I'm sorry if that was unclear.
