But i don't know what position FXO boss holds in there. Co founder? senior partner? Furthermore, I don't know if they have an underlying business plan for their e sports brand or if they use e sports as kind of promotional tool for their future target group (educated males with online knowledge). Or is this a kind of a pet project much like Chelsea is for Abramovich? Considering how much QQ there is on SC2 sites whenever we get charged for HD streams, I doubt there's much of a market for a company as rich as FXOpen to make money off of us. My guess is that FXOboss is just really into E-sports and is willing to put in the time, effort and money to see his team rise to the top. | ||

FXOpen is a Forex trading program which means they have big time advertising money. Spending a million in a year in ESports is really nothing to a company like that. Most of the time it is Boss spending his own money because it takes to long for the funds to come from FXO. Like the trip to Korea, Boss paid for it out of his own pocket. Boss is like his name suggests, A total boss. | ||

Wow why so hostile? no i didn't read the posts in this thread, i only read the OP. is there a rule that requires us to read every post in a thread before we can post? Maybe if you know the answer to my question, you could enlighten me. | ||

Common sense would dictate that you read a few posts, or even look for the answer yourself, before asking your mum where your socks are. | ||
