Also you can rename the headline to : The $100,000 GSL Tour Prize Income Club and it would solve most of the problem. It is a small change that matters so much for some people, including myself sometimes! Lolz that title looks more like regular general sc2 thread than this title, you know. If this title makes 70% people got spoiled, that title will make like 100% people got spoiled. | ||

We should either remove it completely or not at all, i for once want to remove this spoiler policy because hey, if you don't want to be spoiled don't read the news at all. | ||

Anyway, I'm surprised Polt and Fruit Dealer have made that much money! Poor MKP.... I guess 2nd place just doesn't bring home the dough. | ||

As for the rest of the SC2 players, without teams/sponsors, no idea how they'd get by. In particular this applies to Korean players, since everything is terribly more expensive in Korea than in the US (by in the US, I mean southern Californian metropolises, one of the most expensive regions in the country), ESPECIALLY in the big cities (eg. Seoul). If they didn't have 10+ guys living in a flat with major sponsorships backing them, they wouldn't be sitting too pretty, to say the least  .I don't think any progamer plans to live off of prize earnings. They make most of their money from sponsorships and such. | ||

All of this discussion could have been avoided if the title was something a little less obvious, ie: [Spoiler] Update on financial standings of GSL Participants. | ||

This one is a major spoiler and should not be a thread title. | ||

It's not, except if you knew by heart that getting second place would not have been enough to get MMA over the 100k mark. And in that case, you're probably hardcore enough to have watched the game in the first place. :p Looking over the thread the ratio seems to be about 2 spoiler complainers to 8 complainers about spoiler complainers. And I'm with the latter. Don't go to a SC2 news site if you are afraid of getting spoiled. | ||

This is the problem, people don't even read the rules before they make a thread. http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=17883 | ||

Why not "[SPOILER] New player joins the..." instead of saying MMA in the title? Oh well. | ||

Fortunately, I already watched 5 games and was kinda expected MMA to take it, so I just have to suck it up and enjoy the rest of the games without suspense or anything, just for their beautiful gosuness (which is already enough, I'm sure ^^) And I know that I'm not supposed to browse TL if I don't want to get spoiled, but you know how it works, I opened randomly a new tab in my browser while writing my fucking paper, and clicked on TL like a brainless zombie, haha. | ||

Not much more to say than what ambrosiaa said. Don't go on TL if you don't want spoilers... forums are made for discussion. Why can't we discuss some matches that happened recently because some people haven't seen it yet? | ||
