But picking on a guy who hasn't had the time to own up is just silly. PS: This is being called objective btw. | ||

Though he is the biggest asshole around, i have to admit i am a bit dissapointed in IPL (they are probably more dissapointed themselves too) for not properly background checking these guys. | ||

First you say we should stfu and stand behind a tainted tournament because reputable peope like Rachel/Tastosis are standing behind it. Now you want people to wait for Gus to come out and defend/own up before people flame him. The very person you agree should be blacklisted and and sanctioned because his guilt has been proven without a doubt already. You pick on someone after they admit their sins and ask for forgiveness? What kind of broke logic is that. You're just trying to pick a fight for no reason so you can stop now. | ||

In the end that gus guy screwed everyone and if he is not sued he is at least dead for esports. Seriously, how can he ever expect to get a sponsor on board? To get into famous leagues, to be invited as a team. He just spat the whole community in its face and - to my knowledge - didn't even explain himself till now. Goodbye, AZK, sorry for your players who will get hit by some of this inevitably. | ||

So needless to say I was already pretty pissed off at PPSL for having a complete meltdown with thousands of people watching, but now that all of this is surfacing I don't know what to think. It was also very evident that they were prioritizing AZK members on the live stream, as they showed very VERY mediocre players, instead of high level players such as Sen vs Inka. As others have stated I definitely expect lawsuits to be filed very shortly by IGN if they do not receive a refund, but yeah, at least in my eyes, I'm never watching any AZK player again. | ||

This just goes to show you that, no matter where you go, there are crooks and thus all business dealings with unknowns like Gus needs to be highly scrutinized. | ||

You can't be blind to what happened to him. Don't skim over YoonYJ's page - take your time and READ every word. Definitely watch out for this guy, once a crook always a crook. | ||

Note* I am also a Filipino and I am deeply ashamed of what have transpired, but nonetheless we will learn from this and will not be blinded by fame or whatsoever in helping the SEA community to grow. | ||

And honestly even if it wasn't, what would that have to do with the shenanigans of one person / team? Shady people exist in all forms, and in all countries. The term developing country has nothing to do with some form of "developing moral ethics" of the general populous of a country. Sorry for the slight tangent. I'm just annoyed with seeing this brought up in nonchalant fashion when all it really does it add a slightly racist tone to arguments. That said, I will look forward to the next legit event held in the Philippines. All this talk of the Philippines coincidentally is really making crave some lumpia right about now ![]() | ||

AZK also tried to recruit players from Team Mineski before all this. Confirmation: On November 08 2011 10:11 ZenDeX wrote: He tried to pull the same shit on my players. Zzzzzz Also.. you should include in the PPSL notes that THEY FIXED THE BRACKETS for today's tournament! They had AZK members going against each other in the original brackets! But this was changed so that AZK members don't face each other early on. | ||
