Edit: I will say though, it does kind of suck for the players. And it also sucks not to be able to see what would've been an even more one-sided Brood War WCG since almost no one outside of Korea is playing Brood War these days. | ||

WCG should look for a new sponsor to take over. When a sponsor holds your event ransom and will ultimatley kill it in the near future, it is time to cut them loose and look else where. | ||

On the other hand. Samsung is A. Protecting them selves from being sued. and WGC just wants to play games(while making money i think we can all acknowledge no one goes INTO business to LOSE money) being part of the community and one who loves the passion this game brings i still have the im a kid concept and am like what $$$ for content that sucks. But I guess in the real world investors are needed and laws are needed to keep the investors and the creators protected. To Court we go...Blizz is using several cases to set Precedent which is much needed in winning a court case. if you can cite precedent you have the upper hand. So if blizz Sets the precedent in future proceedings game companies will have an upper hand in protecting their games. How far it goes to effect big tournaments and a big loving community is yet to be seen. This is how i see it. I hope i didnt ramble. Good Day Vinnie | ||

They don't want people or companies making massive money and advertising and rating without paying anything for the vehicle they use. imagine if your friend was borrowing your car to sell stuff door to door and made lets say 100k but he isn't giving you gas or a cut. wouldn't that bother you?

In your example, the person lending the car doesn't gain anything back, however, Blizzard gain a lot of reputation by letting the Korean advertising their products. First, they have to buy the product then host tournament using the product that they bought. By hosting events they in turn make populize your product. A better example would be. You are an inventor and invented a product. The Korean bought your product and turn it into a spectacular product, in which you profit a lot from sale. Then a decade later, you invented a new product. You don't want the Korean to profit from the old product anymore, you want all the attention to redirect to your new product so that you can gain more sale from it. And that is where we are right now. | ||
