starcraft is almost known for the community, surely the sponsors could have rest asided the conflicts in respect to the community to leave SotG as it was. Don't know if its legal contract shit or just egos but, it's interfered with the community's favorite podcast. sadface

Idra is part of EG, hence the whole sponsor issues. Nobody from Eg will probably be on it, at least as a host.


Oh damn that sucks. EG has the coolest guys. I don't know who else can be a good pillar then

Artosis would hands down be the best "replacement". Just listen to episode 5 of sotg and it will be clear.

You obviously have never dealt with a sponsor. They don't like conflicting sponsors, at all.

Currently listening to episode 5 this, you've raised my hopes so high that this better be good.

maybe i'm missing something here, but where was the conflicting sponsors? SOTG had no sponsors, and all guests had a chance to shout out there sponsors. Am I missing something? Or is it just a lame excuse by eg? If there is something I'm not understanding please clarify.

Except, there are apparently no sponsorship issues anymore (since JP turned down Soundblaster's offer). At least regarding to Alex' presentation of events.

It only leaves Geoff choosing to cut SotG as a regular co-host, Idra never having been a pillar, and everyone of EG welcomed as participant at any time.

  • SotG was offered a sponsorship deal by Soundblaster, arranged by compLexity. This meant that pillars (participants?) of the show would have received monetary benefits.
  • This conflicted with one or some of EG's sponsors, since Geoff in particular was acting as a co-host and not a mere guest like Idra.
  • EG negotiated an alternative offer with one if its own sponsors, so Geoff could have stayed as a co-host. For whatever reason, a final agreement could not be reached.
  • At this point it was likely Geoff would have not been able to continue being a co-host of SotG, resulting in a potential loss of money on his side. EG went forward to increase his salary together with creating a new show along with new sponsorship deals to justify the raise. The goal was to compensate this potential "loss". This show was ITG as a part of the new platform onemoregame.tv
  • By the time business arrangements for onemoregame.tv were already established, it turned out the initial Soundblaster deal didn't come about either. This eliminated the conflict.
  • However, Geoff was already head over heels committed. It was exactly the time he had come to the conclusion that his play is lacking because of that. Unfortunately, a large part of his activities are due to legally binding contracts. In order to cut down, SotG was one of the few "voluntary" activities and therefore was most likely to give.

Sounds great. Do you plan to address the issue of how Incontrol left SOTG? Everyone is itching to hear your side of the story on this.

Is SotG moving back to Monday nights permanently? Or just for Independence Day?
