Pretty much this.

Correct, the viewer only knows what they see and what the caster tells them.

Obviously there are enough questionable contract out there for it to be heard in news regularly. And the same can be applied here, we just don't have all the details. That is why we shouldn't solely looking at it as whoever broke the contract is the unprofessional one. Because as far as I know, an unreasonable contract can still be broken without consequence.
We need someone more professional to answer this question for us.

The law is, of course, different in different countries. But 'unfairness' in the context of unconscienability is not really all 'unfairness' in the common usage of the word, but rather more specific.
Ofc, there's plenty of other possible issues with contracts.
EDIT: Also, to clarify, a bad bargain is fine. A bad bargain is not unconscionable per se.

The only time I hear about people breaching a contract on the news is when they're talking about the ramifications of breaking it. So there are clearly some differences between US and NZ laws regarding it. But I'm fairly confident about my response. (in regard to US law anyway)
Edit: Don't look too much into the sexual favors thing I was just using that as an example of something absurd. I should have picked another one.

Can't believe the NASL's so stubborn. IMO they have much more to lose without the Korean players than to gain by saving money on the travel expenses. We'll I guess the NASL will get what they always wanted, a league for North Americans. GLHF with that.

Korean demands are ridiculous. The players teams are in charge of all the travel and accommodations, not the league. I know Korean teams aren't rolling in money, but they need to start mirroring the foreigner business models.

I have to agree with this as well, if the koreans have some grievance with the NASL you get that worked out before you sign the contract, not a week after you sign it right before the season. When you sign a contract you are agreeing to the terms in the contract. Since there is not a governing body for SC2 though i dont think koreans are going to face any repercussions witch they should for throwing the NASL under the bus like this.

Uh no where did they say that they only wanted it to be a league for North Americans so don't start that b.s. and what do you want the NASL to just give in? The Koreans are not entitled to get everything for free.

Is it just me or did anyone else burst out laughing at the comment from MVP coach that NASL only focuses on production and the tournament.
Is the NASL good at anything other than alienating the community, both players and fans?
How could an organization turn out so horribly bad? Who are the guys in charge of the org? Two chimps in suits?
Now maybe the Koreans are being greedy, we won't ever know, but god, other tournaments deal with them and noone has had issues like this. Noone has run bawling to TL. I just can't see organizers of Dreamhack, IGN, MLG or even any of the other lesser known tournaments screwing up so badly at every turn and opportunity.
Boxer refusing to participate in Season 2 (and the guy loves his NA fans) was a sure tip-off that the tournament left a bad taste on the players who participated.
|
I place the fault of leading the NASL along on the Korean team's shoulders, but at the same time, I think a lot of people on the forums underestimate how poor the average Korean SC2 team has now. Overall, Korea's got the skill, Foreigner's got the money. At least that is how I think Korean's see it anyway.

Koreans arent the beginning and end of SC 2 anymore. You can have a league with top players and exclude Koreans, elitists may bitch and whine, but good games can happen without them. Shocking I know. All the complaining from the koreans sounds like they're on teams that cannot properly support them. I see many of them leaving for foreign teams sooner or later.

IIRC, MKP, Nada, FruitDealer and few other pulled out of Dreamhack in the last minute also. I dont remember the Dreamhack organizer throwing a hissy fit in TL 
edit.
found the TL thread
http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=233411
notice the different tone in that one compared to NASL 'announcement'

Maybe this is why were seeing a decent number of Korean players join foreign teams atm.
E-sports is going global now, they can't just sit around in Korea and hope that the fans come to them.

Because as far as I know, an unreasonable contract can still be broken without consequence. We need someone more professional to answer this question for us. Why do you continue talking after you've already admitted that you know nothing on this subject. The bottom line is they backed out of the contract. Maybe the contract wasn't what they considered legitimate but they signed it. Signing a contract conveys a message of understanding and acceptance. Backing out of a contract that has already been signed conveys and image of a child who agreed with the deal at first but had got cold feet after considering all of the details.
The bottom line is, it was a deal. This culture argument is nonsensical. ALL cultures understand a deal. Instead of only holding the benefits in mind while making a deal, they should try considering the whole picture. Instead, we have a league now in shambles because of immaturity.

But remember, GSL is 1 month long, GSTL is 3 months long. That's a bit different then a weekend long event.
