Looks like they don't value clarification and transparency, what a pity. Here's hoping they listen to the fans (and common sense) and attempt to clear this up after all. Really leaves one with a sour aftertaste if one of the parties doesn't want to clarify when the other was transparent and open about things. Not to say that they did anything wrong. but this doesn't improve their position in all this, that's for sure. | ||

Although we are very confident that, from a legal point of view, Millenium isn’t violating any applicable rule or law, we would also like to emphasize our good will to see this situation solved the right way. We now want to enter a discussion phase with coL to try and find a solution consistent with the professionalism and respectful practices in the growing scene of eSport that both structures wish to promote and support. If anything, this unfortunate series of event has pointed out the impending necessity to ease worldwide communication between structures, and players, to avoid this kind of situation from ever occurring again. To our fans and to all the people supporting eSport in general, we want to thank you for your everlasting support and for your interest in the values that should be carried by eSport structures As for the people who may have been disappointed, shocked or offended, we would like you to understand that Internet gossip is not always ground truth, and that things are often more complicated than they might seem to be. We would like to apologize for the long time it took us to release a statement, but the last two days have been very stressful and exhausting for everyone involved. In addition, very practical difficulties ranging from busy schedules to time differences partially account for some of the mistakes or misunderstandings that might have led to this complicated situation. Hoping that you will understand us, The Millenium Staff Source : Official news Thank you for the update Can you please elaborate on what actually happened beyond " things are often more complicated than they might seem to be" as that doesn't really say anything. Can you provide some details on what happened from your side of the story as Col has done? | ||

Could millenium please explain their point of view? Complexity did in detail and since there is only one side i can see right now i think that millenium acted wrong and that there has to be some more waterproof contracting going on because all that french right crap to get out of a signed contratct is just rediculus and not releasing any info and ignoring complexity at first is just awfull management. Millenium shouldnt be able do hide like this. And really i dont get why stephano would be signing with mil since he should only go to french only tourneys while he is top notch. Edit: after looking at the mil posts in the other thread i really get the feeling you got now idea how to handle this case, especially saying gogogo watch miltv and if you cant speak french you are fucked LOL we dont care and just cause all of you are mad we make a thread without info thats just dumb. | ||

Give a play by play of the situation from your perspective please. This statement is essentially meaningless. | ||

All this stuff feels dodgy but wait and see how it plays out. | ||

The fact that they're even trying to explain their lack of communication with coL away is absolutely laughable considering they were happily streaming as if nothing was wrong while coL was trying to get through to both parties to negotiate yesterday. Neither of them elected to respond. | ||
