So I read through the streamcheating evidence and I hope that you remove it asap, someone being in the stream chat box is not sufficient evidence to mark them as a streamcheater. I am sure most of the players in that qualifier were watching the stream and would be in the stream chat box during their own games.. As far as I remember, Rossi did not play suspect at all!

Also, streaming qualifiers without delay= retarded

Did you actually read it? How was this good evidence?

I'd say this was a lot of speculation at best and a lot of story spinning from both sides. And now we're accusing Amanda with about as much evidence as we had when we accused Gus? It seems like this story is trying to spin this as a negative on Amanda and the travel agency, but it's still Gus' fault for choosing the travel agency in the first place. He should have inquired about their fees and extra charges far in advance, and gotten it in contract.

Sounds like a lot of he said she said, going to wait for Dox, YYJ and Thegunrun to make their statements first. They seemed to have actual evidence while all I see here is a lot of name dropping.

So why did gus claim that he would explain and give his version of the events, but just ended up disapearing? On top of that this post is horribly written, which makes it really hard to read.

The biggest problem with this post is that it's written from such a bias standpoint. If your information was so damning and the evidence so clear cut then you wouldn't need such grandiose hyperbole to get your point across.

What the hell just because he was in the stream chat doesn't mean he was stream cheating at all I have been in stream chats when i have played and had the stream paused etc. It doesn't mean shit.

The major problem I see here is that you're so absolutely sure of yourself, that you start from the position that everything Gus says is true and that everyone else is part of this huge conspiracy to steal money and ruin a guy's life.

You're completely ignoring all compelling evidence put forward from many other community members, and painting a completely biased picture from one side of the equation. No effort whatsoever has been given to balance here.

It's so evident through all your chat logs that you weren't discussing the issues with the people at hand, you were persecuting them.

EDIT: ROFL @ the poll!

EDIT2: I'd also point out that accusing Rossi of stream cheating is just as bad, if not worse than half the shit you're defending ledesma from here.

It's really frustrating that this information wasn't brought up earlier. It's also a shitload of information to try and digest for an event that is fuzzy at best in most peoples minds at this point. I'm by no means saying you shouldn't have posted it, but it definitely would've made much more sense to do it earlier.

I will say what everyone else has tho that condemning someone to stream cheating based on a name in a chat box is ludicrous and should be removed entirely from the story unless something else on that matter comes up.

He is a hero because it would mean another notch tacked onto IPL's event count.

Maybe I am too dumb to see it, but how much was she payed total and how much did she overcharge? Could you maybe list all the tickets and invoices and show us the disparity?

And one more thing. How much of this is just how SEA does business?

The Rossi accusation makes no sense. You're willing to stake the reputation of a player with 34 placings and ~$4k in winnings who has represented Australia against their name being in a chat box in a screenshot. Not even the most jaded e-sports fan would call that evidence. Either you wrote this to pad your post or you hold some sort of grudge/issue with him or his team personally. At least that's what I read from this.
