What exactly have you done for the community Demurity? In the last 6 months not only have I donated 1000+ hrs hosting events and tournaments, but with the SKTL included I have also given nearly $3,000 in tournament payouts. When nobody was hosting any events, I was there every week. Youve asked me the same question for the same argument to me several times now. What youre doing is measuring self-worth using the metric youve chosen, time contributed hosting events. If I were to ask: how many people would rather play/hang out with me over you? Well then I think we have a moot point. Also, I cant do 1000+ hours in 6 months because I have a full time job. Apparently, those numbers youve put in average to 41.66 hrs/week, equivalent to a full time job. | ||

Experience- Overall it has been a great experiences for the players and we have developed a respected ongoing weekly tournament. During this time we have paid nearly $2,000 in winnings and have had zero issues with payouts. Advantage- When we started doing this for the community we where literally the only tournament happening aside from ASL. We also have developed several relationships with companies that will support our vision and benefit the community when it comes to future events and tournaments. I have stated multiple times that I am far from perfect and there will be things I can do to change and improve. With that being said I also hold far more weight in the positive experience and advantages I have brought to the community then I have done to wrong anybody. These things are not possible without time/money so when you measure self-worth to a community/organization those metrics have to be highly valued. | ||

Simply put, is the cost of having a corrupt org run by a snake worth having a league? Some people agree via participation in the league, and some dont by way of exiting. It isnt wise to regard yourself in high esteem and ignore those who disappprove, while saying youre doing everything you can to improve. This hypocrisy is exactly why I had left SK the first time, then you turned around and begged me to come back while apologizing. To reiterate, I enjoyed playing and spending time with the SK members, but I think youre the only one holding yourself back from actually getting people to want to help you. I will take your feedback into condsideration, thank you. | ||

Except the ones that gain the "collectible" value - but it would have to be mint condition. | ||

Hey guys, I along with the SK team would like to inform you all that as of now, I am assuming the position of being the official go-between for you guys and the SKTL leadership. If you guys have any questions about anything, grievances to express, or suggestions please feel free to hit me up. Additionally, with 619 I intend to assist with avoiding any further negative feelings about the way the league is being managed. I intend to do this by having an open and ongoing dialogue with team leaders/managers to avoid seemingly unilateral decision making going forward. I obviously can't guarantee total capitulation to every individual complaint, but will make sure the opinions of the community and participants are factored in when decisions are being made. I also will to the best of my abilities keep you guys informed of any ideas or changes that may be made AHEAD of their implementation, so your thoughts and impressions can be taken into account and considered as part of the decision making process. Also how did this thread become about pokemon cards. | ||
