lol? I'm hoping this was a joke. I hope you're not seriously implying that Korea's "investigations" aren't worth anything due to whatever reasons, because that's the most ridiculous things I've ever seen someone say in order to support their claim.
Don't make offensive statements like that. What in the world -_-

i believe all he was saying is that korea as a whole has vested interest in only releasing as little information as they can to appease the masses without ruining the credibility of the sport, and if that means turning their head to alot of crimes, i'm certain they are capable of that for the greater good of the country

Its so sad that he was the face of the whole incident when he probably had the least to do with it out of all the people involved.
"player hesitantly acted as a broker." They even said hesitantly (in korean i guess). Can you guys imagine the situation? Savior probably didn't think match fixing was a good idea but some people probably gave him money and said pass it on to his teammate. How many of you would actually have reported your fellow teammate for throwing a match or would you just give him the money and want to have nothing further to do with it? IMO this information completely redeems Savior in my eyes.
"is said to have received a lot of offers for match fixing." and apparently rejected them all. I think Savior almost sounds like a good guy now when compared to the other match fixers. Its dissapointing that he had to be banned from Kespa.
Sorry, this may be an uninformed question, but who was the teammate Savior "hesitantly acted as a broker" for? I don't remember any other CJ players on the match fixing players list.

The article never says anything about a teammate it just says "a fellow gamer" and i'm pretty sure it's talking about hwasin? don't know for sure though :S

like rekrul, I believe it's more of a case of "the police are corrupt and ineffective" vs "korea is corrupt and ineffective"
... However, the case where the players would directly interfere with the matches to fix the matches happened for the first time in Korea (T/N: It's the first case in Korea, OR Korea is the first place it has happened. It's likely the latter interpretation) ...
I think you mean former interpretation, not latter. I'm basing this on the sentence before the translator note: you said that it happened for the first time in Korea which is analogous to the first case in Korea.
so tedster, you seem pretty confident that savior was basically being some bookie's errand boy and are following this. who's to say he didn't get money, but got pressured by gang-related people so he would stay involved as a valuable connection? by the same token, basically any and all of these people (though i doubt all obv) could be pressured, and while they still did illegal shit, it's a very different scenario when people who will kill you if you don't pay them are demanding you do so.

So far we don't know the names of any toss involved? Because they are refeering to a speciifc game aren't they? So, who is it?
That game you quoted was more than likely Best vs Type-B on Outsider, where Type-B had like at least 6 gas, yet still lost to Best's Sair/Reaver. The worst part about it was that Type-B just screwed around, threw away mutas, then suicided into mass sairs with all his mutas later on.
If I recall, Type-B won the previous game and next game in that bo3 and went on to advance farther in that OSL.
What's the point of throwing a game if you're still going to win the series?
They arnt necessarily betting on the series, just the individual games. That or they need him to lose one game to break 3-0 bets. etc.
The thing with this logic is that, Type-B would have had to win game 3, which he had no control over. Saying that he blew game 2 to break 3-0 bet seems a little far-fetched.

maybe the other dude was paid off. who the fuck knows. i am so paranoid now. to think that i shook savior's hand and was all over his dick at blizzcon makes me mad now. fuck em all. lock em all up and throw away the key. if your willing to throw a game of starcraft just think what else they would be willing to do. what scums of the earth!

Nice post, through a bit fuzzy to understand. Thanks very much for translating it and sorry for the late reply.
Thanks, but could you rehost the images onto another site if possible? The images are on my webserver so I rather not have it use up too much bandwidth.

Could someone please post a link to the match? Or is that against the rules?
I think KeSPA and other companies want all this information confidential, sorry =O EDIT: I don't think this is against the rules, as the information is already from the screenshot and other public info, not from my own knowledge. It was STX vs KT, and the popular zerg known for matchfixing was Luxury. Find all Terran games played on Tornado in the proleague that Lux played, and you'll find it soon enough. EDIT: nvm im an idiot, everyone knows about this already

It's really interesting to watch their expressions knowing that the match was fixed. Just trying to read what might have been going through their heads at the time.
