MLG did not want to pay for TL to be put on the Calander for thier ppv event. expecting it to be free like all gold members thought the winter arena would be to them I am a gold member and I didn't expect to be entitled to it for free, it was clearly a new product and something different from the usual pro circuit events. | ||

MLG Adam said on SoTG #63 that they were exponentially ahead of where they expected to be in terms of sales of passes. I don't think there's any need to feel sad for them. I suspect they're going to do very well this weekend. | ||

I don't think a reasonable post explaining the actions of TL is starting drama. There are multiple much more dramatic threads about the MLG PPV than this one. | ||

The amount requested by TL was 10k???? The only reason I bring this up is because I support TL's decisions, I am against how MLG handled the PPV..but if the 10K is the amount.. then I have to now disagree with TL's decision! That amount of money would be purely a 'money grab' and make what TL did here look very poor. Can anyone confirm this amount. Any comment from TL? I love what TL is doing here and I agree with their stance on this.. but for 10K..that's absurd. | ||

We don't know how much sales they expected and we don't know how much 'exponentially ahead' is. We don't have any numbers and it's pretty weird to just trust everything they say. | ||

They already said that no talks of money was ever made before this reliable source ever spoke up. It's all now "he said/she said" and since TL already said nothing was made, I doubt they'd go back on their word if there was any truth to this source. You won't get a public confirmation with a name rofl. Don't advocate for transparency and confirmation when you won't reveal source, too contradictory | ||

Nearly every Starcraft fan cares about it and for that reason alone it should be there. It should be that simple. | ||

I also heard from this other very reliable source that TL was going to pay 10k for MLG to put the PPV on their calendar! crazy right? | ||

Seems like an attention grab by vVv if they were the "reliable" source. Unless they provide solid proof, it is stupid to start a rumour like that. 1,000% agreed. I'm all for theories and possibilities. But you look less credible coming out blatantly like this then to do a little more digging rather than relying on a "source" | ||
