It's no a corporation with the goal to make profits, it's a NGO with the korean Ministry of Culture being it's parent organization.

The players themselves have even stated they want to play in the Code A qualifiers and they've not given any good reason to stop them playing. They're going against their own players for the focus of their monopoly once again. A similar thing happened during Broodwar. In retrospect I can see Kespa's wisdom during the previous clash with GOM during bw times. There is the small problem of more stacked personal schedules for the progamers. But more importantly as you can see now in SC2 foreign scene there is an abundance of tournaments and "championships" every 2 weeks leading to titels becoming totally meaningless. Someone won IEM..so what... shortly after there will be a MLG champion... Even during bw times MSL was always in the shadow of the OSL. I think it is better for the development of esports to just have 1 individual and 1 team tournament. Even for us SC nerds there is too much content out there right now, imagine how it is for people who are not into esports. It is too confusing and and when there is just one big tournament with good price money, all the fanbase attending that one championship and the winner remaining the person to beat for the next half year then it creates a lot more hype and attention that may reach someone previously not interested in esports. | ||

A lot of anger showing how kespa destroyed BW and now trying to do the same to sc2. A lot of cuss words towards kespa in almost every post lol. Quite a number of ppl stating they will only watch GSL and boycott osl. fuck. yes. glad they're getting on board with this. however i have a feeling kespa would rather run things right into the ground before caving in. | ||

Just advise their players to only train with other gom/foreigners. Don't use the ladder, let the kespa noobs play between themselves and stay noobs. Noone will want to see a still noob flash after 1 year of full switching to sc2. | ||

If Kespa ditch sc2 because of it so be it.. would hurt sc2 in korea for sure but we didnt have kespa player before so, whatever. Also EG.Flash.RC If Flash was on EG he would be playing in the GSL. Now if we could just Yell at kespa sponsors about that, like when some people say some words, that would be great, for once it would be for a really good reason. | ||

Ahhahahahahaha GOGO TRYHARD RANGER ! But why i don't know this ? WHYYYYYYY ???????/ | ||

Possibly the Prisoner Dilemma better represents a single playing of the game where cooperation is possible for greater payoffs for both, but the Hawk-Dove is the more likely way the overall/end game situation will pan out? | ||

Just a lot of bit hing at kespa. Fomos is taking a huge hit from the fans too because they put out a few articles that sounded like defending kespa's position. | ||

They are trying to do it again. Serious measures have to be taken against such aggressive policy.jesus these people are so fucking sensitive. I can read Korean, their alphabet is very easy to learn, easier than the Latin alphabet. You can also listen to them when they pronounce those names. Or you could even play the name in voice reader of google translate.  | ||

So, "Im" is technically correct, it's just that we are already used to the Romanized version. It's only a minor mistake, in this sense.
