Huge respect for Boss and FXO standing up to "the man" and doing what's right - with unusual yet appreciated transparency to boot.

Don't let SC2con bully players and teams around like Kespa does in BW. This might work in BW since it's Korea only and the system has been built from the ground up to accept Kespa's mob-like authority and control, but not so in SC2.


I believe this is a good wake-up call for them and they will be forced to return to the negotiating table much humbler the next time around.

Reading the OP I can't gather anything. So wtf is this? Not that I care for FXO much.

the original post was removed, basically sc2con has a problem with the name and logo of FXO and wanted them to change it using blackmail and threats thats what i can remember from it. Not to mention the stress cause by sc2con for the fxo players.

you maybe the boss of FXO, but you're acting like the boss of sc2 korea. not good.

giving sc2con a chance? you're just 1 team manager out of all the others around.

seems pretty immature to complain publicly on the internet about blackmails and insults from a single rep w/o talking it over with sc2con heads. if you've decided to air it then stick to your guns, if you're wrong for airing it all prematurely then man up and apologise instead of trying to seem high and mighty.

Kespa made alot of douchebag moves, but at least they were mostly upfront and legal about their doucheness. They released statements, laid out rules, drew up contracts etc SC2con is more shady, making the same or worse moves but doing it behind closed doors and being secretive about it, trying to blackmail, coerce and intimidate, really pathetic. I hope they get shut down.

I dont know if this was talked about in the thread (I havent read all 28 pages yet), but did FXO join sc2con when they bought fou or were they in it because they were in Korea competing in the GSTL? Is there anything STOPPING other nonkorean teams from joining sc2con or has it just not happened yet?

IMJunwi is the president of SC2Con. Apart from that, I don't know who the other members are, but quite a few are active progamers.

SC2Con only needed to exist because of stuff like the EG-Puma incident. Still, it's a little weird for an organization to threaten another prominent team in Korea.

Heres the old news post of basic info about SC2Con for anyone interested, however this is old so there are probably a few changes

This upcoming 17th, there will be an official establishment of StarCraft 2 association as well as an orientation at GomTV studio. It will involve 7 teams that are currently participating in GSL, plus their coaches and players.

The association will include teams StarTale, Prime, oGs, TSL, fOu, ZeNEX, and IM, their coaches and their players. In addition, there will be StarCraft 2 game team association, players association, and an advisory board.

The first president will be Won Jeong Uk, currently the coach of StarTale, and the advisory committee will be managed by GomTV e-sports business management and an editor from a famous e-sports specialized webzine.

Also, the commissioners will be TSL's Lee Un Jae coach, Prime's Park Wae Sik coach, oGs Park Sang Ik coach, fOu Kim Tae Yeup manager, ZeNEX Yun Hee Won coach, and IM Kang Dong Hoon coach. As for the commissioner for the players association, one will be selected through gamers voting in sometime in January 2011.

From what I understand, Junwi is not the president of the SC2Con (and one of the posts above me says the president is the ST coach).

Junwi was only voted as the head of the Players' Association.

Wrong, he is the president of the players association.

- On a more serious note, i believe the International teams, FXO, TL;, EG dignitas etc etc, Should start thinking of creating an organization, SC2CON / KESPA are not acceptable SC2 is not just Korea, we are no longer in Broodwar , in the times where the Evil Empire ruled the Kuprulu Sector.

-however something like SC2CON is needed but should not be exclusive or just Korea, such thing is unacceptable, GJ FXOBOSS. :D

-PS. : I officially declare SC2CON "EVIL EMPIRE" from now on.



Yeah why Cant Foreign teams create a different body? I didnt follow BW, but it does seem that Sc2 is much more worldwide than BW

I quoted someone saying Sc2Con Was Kespa 2.0 ; in the Koreans pull out of NASL 2 Thread Many people didn't want to listen.

Now they may change their minds

I don't think you should release something like this when everything isn't clear. Too many misunderstandings already and all it does is just put a bad face on sc2con when you're still not completely sure of the situation yourself.

No organization would be able to stop that "incident" because it's legal and completely allowed. Odd choice for an example.

This happens in any walk of life friend. It's publicity -- Tabloids, movies, electronics, there is always something that isn't quite clear but it's brought to attention.
