Posts that relate to topics with their own thread, such as in News, Tournaments or Strategy should go in those threads.

Has the embezzlement (however it's spelt) actually been confirmed or are there still doubts? The entirity of reddit seems up in arms but when I stopped following the drama Sayuri was still vehemently defending herself. I like giving people the benefit of the doubt. People can do stupid things when they're in financial trouble.

If you didnt follow it through then, I doubt you would care enough to follow it through now. The money was paid later by a benefactor so it ended there.

Yes they do but very few decide to steal from terminally ill children though.

There were no doubts.

Clear cut proof she pocketed 2.2k. She never paid it back, and some white knight paid for her. She played a few games of Dota with him as compensation. It was all hilariously documented.

LGD hiring Sayuri is the only legit pitchfork worthy topic I've seen in esports over the last 3 years. If anything should get the community outraged to release a twitter campaign to spam the team and let them know of our dissatisfaction, it's this.

She not only scammed the DOTA community, but she scammed a childrens charity at the same time. This person should not be accepted back into our little world.

Problem is she was never out. She's slept with too many NA dota guys to be kicked out. They all still play with her in hopes of getting some.

I've already tweeted sponsors because frankly this is one of those times I think it's justified but I think I'm in the minority, Honestly esports pitchfork for much less I'm surprised this gets as little flak as it does.

As a random thing that sprung to mind because of MLG, I wonder why there aren't more Asian teams in western events. Of course there are expenses and all that and if you calculate it they're not all that profitable. But if we go back to Dota 1 it happened.

2007 Zenith travels from Singapore to Sweden for Dreamhack (Zenith went to multiple events in Europe)
2008 Zenith and Kingsurf travel from Singapore/Malaysia to ESWC (In America)

I find it weird that it's taken until now to get an Asian team to a western event in Dota 2 other than EHOME in 2011.

ESWC might cover travel expenses, but Dreamhack never does.
