if in fact some of this is orchestrated for the purposes of increasing the profile of EG and/or Idra...
its nothing special at all..
Vince Mcmahon has been doing this kind of thing for decades.

and really ... who cares... EG is not harming any one if they are being less than genuine.

if EG can turn this event into a huge debacle that increases their profile the same way Vince Mcmahon does when he "fires" some high profile employee...

all the more power to them.

this is sports entertainment marketing 101.

But that doesn't change the fact that your theory is crap, you're a shit poster and you don't fact check ever. You just claim wild shit and expect people to take it on face value because "random advertisement on TV" sometimes lie. And just like we shouldn't believe what we read on TV, we know that anything you post is going to be nonsense.

I have not clue why Team Liquid continues to put up with you. It reflects poorly on the website that you're still allowed to post.

just follow the money.


in his interview during Real Talk IDra disputes some of the recounting of the events as portrayed by EG.

hardly. EG is just trying to make money by entertaining people.

no big deal here... as i stated before... its marketing 101

Hard to take anything serious from a guy who created a thread about Blizzards giving up on esports... when WCS was announced a week later and he still updates it telling people how he was right.

why this guy is even still allowed to post is just beyond me.

I disagree with Jimmy getting banned for this one truth be told, unless it is for derailing the thread.

Don't see how it is a coincidence that EG released the information as SOTG was going on, when we are talking of the same team who likes to look at all angles before doing anything. Doesn't have to be some grand conspiracy. This is in no way badmouthing EG. On the contrary, they are just the best at what they do (doesn't mean there weren't hurt feelings by their mgmt.)

In any case good luck to EG, and specially Greg!!
