There's no reason this topic can't simply be brought up in a post in the other thread. Are you guys going to start a fund to help IPL hire a lawyer in the Phillipines? Also "damaging an entire scenes reputation" is the type of exaggeration that is typical of threads like this and only creates problems when it gets repeated enough. Not to mention the fact that we haven't even heard both sides of the story. Can you think of any other threads in recent memory where people were lambasting one party as guilty before hearing the other side, and then after hearing the other side switching opinions entirely? EG/TSL, Major/Sixjax perhaps? I somewhat agree with you, specially after the EG/TSL fiasco, however this situation is different. These guys were given money to run an event and they bombed pretty hard. Even if you discount all of the allegations against them, the facts remain that they ran a terrible event and the cancellation(?) of the HoN tournament was never announced. I like how you brought up the EG/TSL thing because even though they explained things in detail they took a long time to release any information, which in this high-speed information age is a pretty terrible idea. At the very least they should have apologized for the event and state that they a full press release is forthcoming. *Also stop posting negative responses (referring to your original post) if you have nothing useful to contribute. | ||

It was delayed yesterday due to the computer problems. While I don't agree with some of his methods, I think I'm willing to give him a bit of a benefit of a doubt. And he needs to give a very good explanation of his actions. What reasons could he even possibly give to get out of this situation? Someone put a gun to his head and forced him to cancel sending YoonYJ and instead sending someone from AZK? His list of crimes are long and he has a history. There is absolutely no excuse and he's a hideous dirtbag. Anyone who defends him or befriends him risks being lumped together with him as a complete scumbag. | ||

I would reserve those words for someone like Hitler... but you know, using them on a crappy tournament organizer is fine too, I guess! | ||

Off topic but look at Artosis' face. Such a weird expression. As far as Gus goes, you can't blame the whole thing one one guy if nothing was organized at all. Everyone in the organization must take some of the responsibility. | ||

That said, I'm sure people don't actually mean the crap they're saying here. They're simply pissed that their favorite player/caster/tournament was treated badly, or just frustrated at shoddy work in general. | ||

Well, when I say bring me the head of the evilest man involved, I'm being metaphorical. Obviously he shouldn't be beheaded. | ||
