Need more waiting and less drama.

Not a day on teamliquid without the drama, lovin it. The sad thing is one of the teams might win the lawsuit, but in the end we will really have 3 losers.

That what I understood from Mille's manager stream tonight, but others French viewers understood it differently.

Jesus, finally someone brings this up. Because you can't break a CDD. Not if the company doesn't agrees too at least. Although you have a retract time for most of the contracts (at least one week).

Med School at 18 isn't the norm. in france, medical school begins at an undergraduate level. this is also true in australia, and many other places. there's a common theme in this thread: people assuming that the way things work in their country is the way they do, and should, work everywhere else. Well you don't know jack about France apparently. What you're saying about how you can quit your job at any time baffles me. You have to come to an agreement with your company otherwise it's legal for them to sue you so stop posting really because you're making a fool out of yourself. Not to mention that you keep speaking of the contract but I'm quite sure you didn't see it and if you did I have to agree with the guy saying you're from Mil. And even if you are you don't know anything about international law and that's a shame. well it does say his country is Australia ... Well that's my point, this guys keeps speaking for France when he's obviously not French. Because if he is, he better be trolling... @EvOr, and if you don't do your "pré-avis"'s time they will sue you. The only thing that could "save" Stephano is the retract time of the contract (if there was one to begin with). i'm not "speaking for france". i'm not french, as you guessed. i'm speaking up to say that stephano shouldn't be vilified for making an error of judgement then quickly changing his mind - and that compLexity shouldn't be making insane legal threats with no knowledge of the protections conferred on workers by nations other than the usa. I get it now, Australian communist party? did you just accuse me of being a card-carrying communist? like this was freaking 1950 or something? have i posted through a timewarp into the mccarthy hearings?
40 of your 50 posts have been in this thread and you keep whining about labour. And you deny being a communist. That certainly sounds like something a communist would do, doesn't it?

Reading wikipedia != understanding law.

Still waiting for you to research US law

What a messed up situation. I feel sorry for Jason Lake, who puts so much work into esports only to have shit like this happen to him.
Millennium and Stephano can bet one thing, they have created many an anti-fan with this dick move.

I hate how this has turned into a matter of nationalism, It's nothing of the sort, they used an online contracting service, he agreed and signed his contract, it's fucking despicable to not take responsibility for your actions, I'm disappointed with all the American's on here that are being rude towards french people seeing as though it isn't the country as a wholes fault, simply Stephano's and Millenniums ignorance, as for the french people in the thread that are saying equally bad things about america but also simply agreeing with millennium due to the nationalist card, It's stupid, just stop it, Complexity had all the right to let the public now that they've been wronged in a business aspect and that there should be repercussions, Stephano signed a contract, Millennium didn't want to lose their best sc2 player, so they played dirty and its going to come back to them. Regardless of what was within the legally binding document, Millennium, along with Stephano, has BM'd on probably the highest of levels, They should in my personal opinion have to deal with some sort of ban or repercussions within the starcraft 2 field, whether it be a simple season ban or multiple seasons, This cannot be allowed to happen, It's incidents like these that do not allow E-sports to progress.

I am officially on board with KESPA 2. An organized, respectful international Starcraft scene will never be a reality.

And people thought having Kespa was a bad thing?

Stop Flame on Millenium guys :
Millenium said they will send him on all big tournaments all other the world where he can be, There WILL BE Stephano on MLG, IPL etc... They always said they WILL SEND Stephano to KOREA if he wants to train 1or2monthmax or specially if he won a GSL spot !
They also announce about their future Gaming house in Marseille that they have maybe found one but they are looking for answer about the connection and more, and it is a 400m² gaming house ! It will be open to players of other teams to train together and they may do a lan like Homestory Cup =)
Millenium is doing a lot to develop Esport in France and in general, They develop cup with their sponsor with top EU players and will develop bigger lans tournament in future (like that one MSI Pro Cup #2 )
Millenium and Stephano FIGHTING !!!

On September 20 2011 06:54 Koorb wrote: Since there are people who still misundertsand things...:
Just to summarize what Lewellys, Millenium's manager, said tonight (Europe timezone) on stream:
- There is indeed a signed legal document that binds Stephano and compLexity. Millenium's staff reviewed it, and told Stephano that there were loopholes in the contract, and that it doesn't comply with French labor law. Subsequently, Lewellys and Millenium's staff advised Stephano to ignore it, which he eventually did.
- Lewellys stated that he didn't know about coL's intentions before the announcement of the transfer on TL Forum. However, he also said that he doesn't know if other people in Millenium's staff were in contact with coL or not.
- He doesn't plan on answering to coL's mails. He also said that he is confident that Millenium is covered by French law on that matters.
- Contrary to Cedrix's (Millenium boss) statement in the OP, there were no "disorienting actions" from coL. The so-called disorienting actions was that they signed the contract during the night (in European time zone), and that Stephano is only 18.
- Lewellys stated that he doesn't plan on sending Stephano to lots of international event, and that he will focus on French events.
Since there are people who post not-so-true facts.... Here is what we heard. Which is not so far, but not so close either.
LwL said he wasn't aware of the negociations, and found that somewhat uncool. He said they had not answered yet to the mails, it being the night etc, but they should probably do so, since he found fighting over news releases on websites isn't the best way to deal with it. He found Cedrix's statement a bit harsh. They ARE planning to send Stephano to IPL3 and MLG Orlando at least, and Stephano plans on going for a short while in Korea.
This is not exactly what you said...
