I've been trying to curb my TL posting as of late, but I just felt the need to hop on and say that this entire situation just sounds terrible... I do hope it all gets resolved in the best way possible.

Artosis would be the defense attorney, Incontrol would be the prosecutor.

Is that girl really going to end up going to jail because of this? Sick to my stomach knowing some innocent person is being screwed over because of one stupid scamming little asshole.

Given that TGR has yet to hear from Gus about money Gus owe him, I doubt Amanda will be getting her money any time soon. It's a sad affair, worsen by how quickly we moved on to the next drama.
Thank God and gunrun.

I don't think it's "moving on", it's just there is no new information at the time and so there's nothing to talk about except the things that have been said dozens of time already ... I don't think anyone will forget this anytime soon.

I think Gus's intention as well was to gain sympathy empathy from people By treating Artosis and Taseteless extremely kindly while side-stepping the management/issues with the tournament. In attempt to put himself in good light/view while ignoring the real issues that had been on-going during the duration of the event.

Still kind-of bothers me that Artosis uttered the words on SOTG "he was a nice guy". If I heard it correctly Im not hating on Artosis I'm just sad he hadn't realized what Gus had/has done enough information was out within the past days that takes about 5 mins to skim over in Doxs blog.( which was a fairly concise description of what probably happened)

I'm hoping that Gus gets what coming to him if what he did was really true and I can't see those accusations;'all of them. Being made up/false.

Maybe well never find out exactly what happened considering he was the sole manager of the funds and responsible for Flying the players; but the compilations of accusations are too numerous to simply Side-step in light of what transpired

Such an awful person this Gus is. People trusted him with the cash and this is what he does.

This needs to be snubbed at the bud otherwise it may encourage others with similar mentalities to step up.

Hopefully this guy gets slapped with legal red tape and ends up paying a hefty fine. Hopefully this will be the last I hear of this atrocious human being.

Gus got to work with IPL by having the PPSL fall on the same day as IPL3. I don't think it actually did though. What David Ting said at IPL3 was that his event was on the same weekend as IPL3. Because of that, he said two events had to cancel. One was PPSL, the other was Devastation. Devastation didn't cancel the event, but they were having an SC2 tourney for the first time at one of their events and David actually requested that they cancel that.

To make up for the cancellation of the Devastation SC2 tourney and the PPSL, David said he would sponsor both events. Lots of people on his staff (by the way he made it sound in a recent interview, his entire staff) told him sponsoring PPSL was a bad idea because Gus had zero proof that he had enough experience to pull something like this off. But David told his staff "just trust him". David said that he was too trusting, a quality that is just a part of who he is, and that he has now learned his lesson and won't make the same mistake again.

There is a question here though. There were no posts about the PPSL being at the same time as IPL3. There was no publicity for it. No one who has come forward to relay their concerns has said that PPSL was ever scheduled for any date before the one it ended up landing on. The Australian qualifier was put into motion around the middle of September, if I'm getting Dox's timeline right. Was it scheduled way back in August for October? I don't understand what's going on here.


The date for PPSL changed multiple times, according to Dox in his blog. The PPSL announcement on AZK's website still says that the event would be in October, but as early as September 1 the event was scheduled for November (as dated in Dox's blog post), so the whole PPSL > IPL shift must have happened even sooner than that.


Well the IPL went from conception to actual event in 6 weeks. So the earliest PPSL could have known about IPL3 was early September. It just seems kind of scammy to me, considering what else Gus has done. Maybe I'm wrong though.

Looks like a blog post from one of the sponsors. The inconsistencies in some of the terms/names are painful to read though lol

Ugh even more disgusting stuff in there, looks like sponsors think he used the money they gave him to fly him and his friends to USA to ask IPL to sponsor the tournament. And many, many other things. At this point it's become really, really bad.

Wow! And still we hear nothing from Team AZK or Gus. Makes you wonder really.

But I guess this shows that Gus doesn't comprehend what a contract is/stands for if he kept badgering the sponsors for additional cash flow up until day2 of the event.

Also 3Mbps? WTF?! No wonder streaming was that slow and Low Quality. 3Mbps/32 units = 93.75 kbps per pc, excluding the stream allocation. Just WOW!

I was really disappointed by the SotG talk on the PPSL issues. Nobody in the panel had any idea what had happened, not even JP had done any sort of actual reading on the topic. All they knew is that people were whining and they started talking about the smallest of issues and ignoring the more important ones.

Jesus. Most people have been saying he probably didn't steal any money, that he just misjudged how much everything would cost and didn't have enough in the end. But if the suspicions of his sponsors are true, then he actually stole from them. This guy needs to be arrested immediately.
