The only reason this has become 'hyped' and at risk of being some crazy anticlimactic event, is because people in this thread and threads like it(reddit) are building it to be something. That said, I'm so sick of announcing announcements because it's blatantly taking advantage of this mob hype mentality that is apparently so pervasive. This is an ARG marketing campaign. It's designed to make people guess, because there are esoteric clues planted in it for us to figure out. I'm having fun. So is most everyone in this thread. I don't understand why you have to be "embarrassed" and "sick". | ||

Nothing negative comes from those who wish to hype, hyping. It's not like you'll be disappointed because we build up the hype. Only those who get into it would be disappointed, and we are enjoying ourselves enough for it to be worth it. I am sorry if your butt hurts. | ||

Winning Code S gives you ~46k, placing second gets you ~$18k. "Prizepool : 1st: 50,000,000KRW (~32,000EUR, 46,000USD) 2nd: 20,000,000KRW (~13,000EUR, 18,500USD) Ro4: 5,000,000KRW (~3,200EUR, 4,500USD) Ro8: 3,000,000KRW (~1,900EUR, 2,800USD) Ro16: 2,000,000KRW (~1,300EUR, 1,850USD) Ro32: 1,500,000KRW (~1,000EUR, 1,400USD)" That's Code S. oh I see, there is a problem with Korea tho in that forener scene is getting big now and Korea is half way across the world from every other esports scene and theres only really 1 bit Korean tournament where as there is loads in EU and US It's certainly a problem, not for Koreans though. You see if foreigners never "catch up" to the Koreans, It's our scene that's gonna die, regardless of which is the bigger one, because teams won't invest in foreigners when getting Koreans for potentially less money more or less guarantees success. We need people practicing in Korea. Badly.[/QUOTE][/QUOTE][/QUOTE] | ||

I don't think they would hype the shit out of that, this has more to do with acquisition of a player/team (I think) then just one player. | ||

thats the dota/HoN afaik with 1499 pages. waste of time to fill so much database space on the tl.net servers. go and refine a new build and make a thread on that, would be a better service for the community. | ||

I'm quite positive that players like Idra and Puma and probably DeMuslim get quite generous salaries from EG, if I were to take a guess, I'd say around 50k a year on average. Which would be a lot of burger flipping. | ||

Do we have any evidence of anything BESIDES the HuK transfer? I mean, I can't seem to find any legitimately informative clue about a possible move to Korea. | ||
