Ugh, I was really looking to come up with something witty about his facebook profile picture and his back being turned, but I'm too tired and this thread has made my head explode with all the shit flying around.

Someone take my idea and run with it, there's a gem there somewhere I can feel it!

Without a community, we're all just a bunch of geeks.

Non directly related you say? But it IS all directly related. I knew gus when he was starting out this little thing of his. I was with John and KTS Game Media in the first event The TEAM AZK OPEN INVITATIONAL tournament they had. Remember, I CASTED that gig?

If you read John's statement it said that he was HIRED to do that event right? HIRED. meaning his services will be exchanged for monetary returns. So everything was set up. But look what happened the night before

[image loading]

Yep. he went behind John's back. Gave me a PM and tried to go back in his word. I wouldn't put up with it so I talked John into doing it Pro-bono just to help out Team AZK and Philippine Esports. You want to know what happened during the tournament?

Just take a loot at what happened The other day. It's basically the same damn thing. He has been doing this a LOT. And I mean A LOT. I have just kept my voice silent because deep inside I wanted him to succeed because it will help eSports in the PH grow. Each time he messed up, we went behind the scenes, helped him cleaned up and hope for the best. and look what he did.


LOOK AT WHAT THAT FUCKER DID?



This guy has no honor whatsoever...

This post is addressed to some of my fellow Filipinese (it's Filipino, if you're IGNORANT about the subject matter, STFU and LEAVE) who have any sort of beef against Augustus.

The point of all of this is the aftermath of the PPSL as a subject matter and people with issues that are DIRECTLY involved in the PPSL.

In the event that you have personal beef (I know some of you does, example, he called you a Douchebag at a certain point of life, that might not exactly be unwarranted, and you probably deserve it during that time) with Gus, hitting him when everyone who's DIRECTLY involved in the PPSL only conveys what kind of insecurity and ego issues you have. We don't need people saying "I'm holding my info blah blah" because you're not shedding any ounce of clarity to the entire muddle which is the aftermath of the PPSL-IPL4 Qualifier-Fiasco.

Although it's quite obvious already that Gus won't be seeing the light of any E-SPORTS related event (not even my Grandson's Christening that's going to happen in a NET-CAFE when we play StarCraft Fantasy 7 </sarcasm>), let's be clear here--he's not the only person acting on this one. I can't give credit to one man and the amount of damage ONE MAN can do. It's just galactically impossible to have orchestrated this entire thing ALONE. He had rep back then and "forces" to back him up too. He was in the IPL3 and all other 'hints' that he can bluff his way into doing something he cant, because he's not alone. This messed up at a certain point and he's not the only one responsible here, he's the FIGUREHEAD indeed but really, we don't exactly know what kind of strings are running behind-the-scenes. Only a little bird can tell us.

And for some factual, clarity:

--He's already with TheGunRun at the time of this writing. So I strongly suggest people who have minor beef with him to put a creamy sock on it for a while.
--TheGunRun bailed out the guy who owed the hotel.

It's a developing situation. And I really would like to request the mods to warn people who's posting non-directly-related shit because things are already muddle as is, we don't need anymore mind games and your Illuminati-esque revelations if you're not saying squat. Please, LEAVE.


whoever you are, coming to the TL forums and telling everyone to stfu and leave makes you look like a complete failure.

I've just updated my blog with this:
Okay just an update, this is really quite serious. I know it was announced several hours ago that Gus was on his way to the hotel to sort things out, but the travel expenses are still outstanding.

This is a message from Amanda who is possibly facing jail if this is not resolved imminently:
Show nested quote +
I issued a total of php 715,000 worth of tickets. 200,000 has been paid, so the outstanding debt is close to php 516,000. Told gunrun already and like im really hoping people in the community can help as being jailed is a possibility for me. I am connected to a travel agency that is why.


This needs to be RESOLVED before someone goes to jail.

Whoa, this is really sad. Isn't IGN holding 50% of the sponsor money atm just so they can use the money to sort damage out if needed (unless I misunderstood what I read); so jopefully they're reading this or maybe one of the guys there can try to contact them to see if they can use those money for this. Would be really really terrible for someone that was pretty innocent to go to jail for another guy's idiocy

Sounds like this guy signed a lot of papers, made a lot of decisions and promised a lot of things without any money.

Is there anyway we can help Amanda or whatever? Maybe a donation or something? Because it looks like Gus is struggling for cash, and someone's going to get hurt. Can we prevent this?

They should held IPL in Singapore. It's a better place to get things done.

i really hope the community does not help. why would she issue 13000 in plane tickets without signing a contract or any payment? now directly asking for donations so she can avoid jail yet the situation hasn't been explained one bit? so it all just goes away even though there is mass stupidity on multiple fronts. I understand offering services in hope to further the esports scene in yoru country. but this makes absolutely no sense why she would be facing jail time for this unless she directly fronted him 13,000 worth of plane tickets without any contractual agreement. am i misunderstanding this or what. either way i hope the best but i seriuosly hope no one from the community donates a dime.

edit: i really don't mean to be cold or mean but this makes no sense.

I agree completely, might as well be another way to draw money from the community, not saying it is, but if she has all her rights on the contract's etc.. I don't see why she would go to jail for it, and secondly, since its a travel agency I doubt she will be personally held responsible. Good luck with figuring it out tho.

she probably works for the travel agency and was a guarantor for the tickets thats why they could get the tickets without the full payment upfront.
the 200,000 out of 715,000 is probably the downpayment.

Yeah, I don't think so. $13,000 missing is not a developing situation. Fix the problems or we'll keep making noise. Posting on a message board is the least we can do until someone owns up to something.
