No goddamnit, that's not even close to important. Coming out the $13k is important.

Final words (sorry was mistaken)


"Umm hi everyone. I i just like to say in organizing this even I only had the best intentions in mind. We made mistakes, I made mistakes I learned from that thats what important, we're working to resolve all the issues that are happening at this time. I'd appreciate it if you give support to the crew who helped me during this event make this event possible our sponsors you know everyone including rachel who was there its really id also like to say umm its truly different for people who were there with eyes at the even who were there physically on the ground vs people on the internet judging by stream and TL posts and umm there's always two sides to the story. ....something something...The truth will come out"

Sorry for the shit transcription the guy talks all over the place and my RSI is playing up like crazy today ^^ Any grammatical errors are just the way he speaks lol I actually cleaned up some of it.

Not many answers xD

Hey guys, as long as Gus learned something, I think that's worth our $12k.
How does it feel knowing you wasted another 3 seconds of your life reading this again?

anyone got a picture of Gus "Criminal" Ledesma?
I've seen it in the other threads but couldn't quite dig it up due to the volume of posts.
Someone might have it handy. Thanks.

Please get Slasher to grill this guy. I'm sorry, Seltzer, but you were way too nice throughout the whole thing and let him just BS his way out of every question without actually answering any of it.

Thanks for the transcription!

Honestly based one what I read, he's more an idiot than a scumbag. I think there's a good chance he really did just underbudget by a lot (still wrong, still got to pay) and didn't actually run off with anything.

How the hell people can overspend that much money without realizing? This just blows my mind.

Thanks for typing out the script, lol. It looks accurate except you need "umm..uh" about every three words.

I appreciate the interviews and such, but honestly.. what was the point? Nothing was answered.. I thought this was going to be valuable =[

Sigh.. he is a joke.

There's two sides to this. If anyone starts 'grilling' him he seems the kind of person to start giving either very short, terse answers and claiming legal technicalities or would simply end the interview. The way that Rachel did it is she gave him just enough rope to let him hang himself with it. His lack of answers and the way he conducted himself spoke just as loudly as argumentatively defending himself may have,

I know this guy is a total douchebag, asshole, and scum of the earth in every possible way. However, what do you hope to accomplish in this? Mindlessly berating him every single chance you get like a fucking lynch mob? Yes, he deserves to get some damn time for what he did and be barred from ever organizing anything ever other than his own birthday party. However, come the fuck on. It's not like he murdered 20 children, he was just stupid and fucked some people over that really didn't deserve it. He doesn't need to be crucified 24/7.

Perhaps if people didn't hop all over his ass every chance they could get, he wouldn't be a stuttering mess. You would be freaking out just like him if hundreds of thousands of people were at your throat at all times of the day no matter what and you just lost all respect from anyone and everyone in the field that you presumably love.

Like I said, he needs to have legal repercussions for what he did and have punishment from the community in the form of never being allowed to organize, or even participate in events ever again, or at least for a VERY damn long time. However, the way that this and every other community is treating him like he's freaking Osama Bin Laden and wanting to hang his decapitated body from high above and march him through the city for his evil deeds is just sad.

Basically, chill the hell out guys. This partially out of basic common sense, and partially out of I'm tired of seeing this shit all the time damn time when it always dissolves into the same thread every single time -- "LOL GUS IS SO BAD LOOK AT HIM TRYING TO COVER HIS ASS LIKE A LITTLE BITCH XD LETS LAUGH AT HIM SOME MORE"

So basically the only thing he confirmed was

1. The internet provided wasn't a contractual deal, just some agreement between "friends of friends" lolwut
2. AZK didn't spend money to fly their team over to IPL 3
3. There was an cable on the floor that got pulled
4. He didn't have "enough money" when asked about having a detailed budget for the event

Just about everything else he said can be summed up in three words "pot of issues"
