Imo they would be great guest since they're not clueless about SC2 either They've been on the show before and I wouldn't be surprised to see them appear again. | ||

Entertaining episode as a whole and I liked the talk about LoL taking Quake's spot and the possible writing on the wall for CS. In fact, lo3, woc and itg for the past 10 days has been the best episodes of all their respective series imo. Very interesting. | ||

I dont want to hear if he hasnt been paid or not thats a matter for him and the organisers to sort out and shouldnt really be aired in public - it gives a bad , whinning and completely unprofessional tone to e-sports. I would of thought Wheat of all people would of realised this. asides from that good show. | ||

It one of the things the community should be very aware of, the tournaments make their money by getting the players/team to attend and should pay the winners price money in time. There really should be a "thread of shame" about tournaments/leagues that are bad at paying the players for their hard work. | ||

I'd sure as hell want to know if there's an organization that doesn't pay up, and also lo3 is the perfect show to talk about this subject. Especially when carmac is on it and is basically forced to explain. Also stop using the word "professional", it's about as annoying as "hurting ESPORTS". yep completely serious, why would you want to know? how can you directly impact what has happened or will happen to said company or player? id expect the answer is you cant. several people not buying a pass wont change anything. How was carmac forced to explain? he basically said a) you have been paid and b)if anyone hadnt they need to speak to him about it. which is the professional way to do this...why you seemingly dont like the word professional is beyond me? These players are professional (hence the words PRO-gamer) they play to make money and to make money in e-sports you have to be 100% professional about what you do bc it will hurt you in the long run if your an ass (no sponsors, no team backing, no tourny invites etc etc) its all well and good HuK effectively mouthing off over twitter but its doesnt exactly solve anything except make the scene look like a joke and makes one party incompentant (either for not paying or for not checking a bank account properly) if a discussion was to be had about this it should of been planned into the schedule as all it boiled down to was HuK saying 'need money', 'havent been paid' 'your full of shit' on twitter and djwheat laughing about it - thats not a discussion. | ||

So no one could complain or pressure to get their money in public, because they did not pay out all money. You basicly say "oh i wish we had those days back when they cut of your tongue when you say something bad about god"... | ||

I would of thought Wheat of all people would of realised this. asides from that good show. What the....say, Nadal wouldn't have received his prize money from winning French Open by now. Why the hell shouldn't the public be interested in that? I DO want to hear if he hasn't been paid or not, since this is of vast importance for esports in general. How on earth is a pro-scene gonna establish if the tournament winners don't get paid? I'd say, there are few things that are more important... | ||
