"I've been looking for sponsors because of serious the foreigner SC2 scene is, and I feel like I should be rewarded financially for how much time I've been planning to put in." I hope he misspoke there. There are a lot of people that put a ton of time into playing SC2 and looking for sponsors. By that statement it sounds like he isn't willing to put the time in until he gets paid. Kind of like looking for a job that requires college and saying "I've been planning to go to college, once you pay me I will go". Doesn't sound good at all. lol the part about this that pisses me off is this guy expects so much, when he's only played the game for a month. We get it, you were good at BW, but you expect teams to throw godless amounts of money at you when you haven't proven shit except for a fair bit of potential? A little arrogant of him. I wonder if he quit before or after root got those mega sponsors. edit: Assuming they didn't post immediately when he left. | ||

We already know he has a big ego and his personality has always been that way. ROOT was waiting to announce their sponsors at the right time. | ||

GL to both parties, "Terran" better not tick off Artosis, or else he's going to find himself in a pit full of so many banelings. @Longshank - Don't nitpick so much  , I mean't it posted AS "news". It's like you turn on *Insert Media outlet of your choosing* and they tell you the sky is blue. | ||

I don't even think this constitutes as a "news" post anymore, I'm just disappointed. Now of all people Artosis recruits him; loss of words. GL to both parties, "Terran" better not tick off Artosis, or else he's going to find himself in a pit full of so many banelings. Then you should be thrilled this isn't posted in the news section? | ||

Always rootin for him xD. And I don't like gositerran because he reeks of entitlement, and if Day9 loses then gositerran won. blegh!I wonder if this "sponsorship" will mean that terran will actually participate in some more tournaments, it'll be interesting to finally see some vods of him in tournament games. | ||

http://www.sixjaxgaming.com/wp/ Check out the "bidding" website in the bottom right. I'll see if I can drag out the whole explanation from Arenajunkies if anyone wants it... Link: + Show Spoiler + http://www.arenajunkies.com/topic/193957-unethical-auction-site/page__hl__sixjax Explanation: + Show Spoiler + Here's how it works: The auction (say, a $350 iPod touch) starts at $0.01. In order to bid, you buy tokens at a rate of 25 for $10.00, or $.40/bid. Each bid is in an increment of one cent. When the iPod is 20 seconds or less from expiring, any additional bids increase the time from expiration by 20s. So, an iPod touch for $1.00 has already earned the website $40.00. If it goes the way of Ebay, where items routinely auction for their average retail price or even say, $50 less than retail, they stand to make a massive profit. A sale of $300 for that iPod touch ends up making a profit for the website of $12,000. Meanwhile all the money spent on those tokens by everyone but the very last person, the "lottery winner" is gone forever. IE. If you bid and don't win, you don't get your tokens or money back. Site sells tokens at a disproportionate rate and makes a ridiculous amount of money. 1 token = $0.40 (Customers money) 1 bid = +$0.01 (Increase in item, costs 1 token) +$0.01 (Item sale price increases by $0.01) = $0.40 ($0.01 increase in sale price cost customer $0.40) Also, I don't want to advertise for them at all, but felt it might be relevant for TL'ers to know where Sixjax get's it's money from (ripping people off). If any of this is inappropriate, remove at will and sorry! | ||
