The governing body of Kespa is a board, and 2 teams obviously isnt the majority... well i dont know what goes on within the boardroom, but i'm sure there was disagreement b/w ogn+mbc vs the rest of the sponsors on this regard. Hmm yea muramasa, kinda confusing what's going on here. I'd say that 1) board comes to conclusion that they will boycott their players if contract doesnt happen. 2) OGN MBC teams dont agree with this. 3) boycott happens, but OGN/MBC ignore the boycott. smth like that. | ||

If OGN and MBC are both convinced that under IEG's terms it will be impossible to turn a profit, I'm surprised that someone else would try. Thanks for translating infinity21. If it's a backup solution, the "third" cable company who has showed Starcraft Showmatches, is CJ, and they are probably that third. I still don't get it, I know KeSPA are "most" of the teams, but they should have thought of this, before going money-whore like and sell the rights to some no-name company, and not have thought about this happening. Am I the only one who wants to grab the owner of IEG and give him a lesson of Starcraft History? Even thought they are the "International e-Sport Group" they are acting like, the "International Money-Whore Group". I cannot believe how grey is our future as gamers, and watchers . | ||

KeSPA's interview brings me some hope. I was generally expecting the worst... after all of this news this morning I had formulated a worst case scenario that goes something along the lines of Proteams boycotting MSL/OSL, while fans boycotting Proleague.... which would have brought the end of Progaming in general. But since KeSPA's still tryin to contact them I'm hoping we'll still see some good news. | ||
