EPTThank you EG for providing me with the opportunity to get 3 pizzas for half price! Papa Johns rarely does this and without your offer I would have starved! I guess am an ungrateful dirt-bag for wanting you to deliver what you promised in a timely fashion, just like Papa Johns never fails to............

What NA Event could they never hold a pizza event at? I'm honestly curious about that point. As in, what NA events are actually happening? And I really hope they follow through with the Tiers. Most of the bigger organizations are better about that type of thing, but my thinking that getting 4 organization on the same page might have been a stretch, might prove to be true. Thus, this strikes me as one of the things they'll "eventually" get to. | ||

Some of the tiers also doesn't require outside involvement so I'm curious about those. It saddens me to see how many broken promises we've seen from eSports and I hope this won't become another one. | ||

The Pizza eating contest happened, the on stream AMA's apparently happened although I didn't see those. I imagine the small prizes they were going to give out were probably sent out, but they might not have been who knows. So tier 5 and 7 done, others pending. | ||

If only they showed the same type of motivation of following through on their promises that they showed to spamming the fuck out of the community with their affiliate links during the promotion. It was all hands on deck for that but, not for this. The only way this gets done is if people continue to push it to the forefront. At this point unless it becomes this huge negative thing they will continue to push it off and push it off until no one cares about it anymore. Hell I'm sure the majority of people that were aware of it back then probably assume it already took place and they just missed it. Moral of the story, don't promise shit you can't deliver in a timely manner. This entire community knows how busy shit gets towards the second half of the year and persons making those promises surely knew it as well. | ||

Pretty sure one of the points of Plato's Republic is that the simplest definition of justice is doing what you say you will. If you can't at least do that, then one is unjust. And there is no logical rebuttal. If you think there is, feel free to explain it to me, and the rest of the philosophical community... Well if you say you're going to do something wrong, you may be open, but you still aren't just. | ||

I mean, look at the GosuGuide! You don't hear people complaining about that never getting updated! Or Day9 and Husky failing to do their Sex and the City skit! I mean, lets's not be silly and hold the actual people and teams involved in the promotion responsible. Let's blame the real culprit! "Schedules!" But lets not get too specific. We won't say "Root, EG, TL, and their various players lacked foresight in failing to determine times to provide tier rewards." We'll keep it abstract and just say schedules didn't line up. That way nobody is to blame. And don't worry. When you ask why the all the tiers haven't been fulfilled, and you're told it will happen soon, they're definitely not stringing you along until you just don't care anymore, and they can half ass it, or not do it all. | ||

That is the negative outcome of this, yes. Next time someone wants to involve themselves in ESPORTS like this people wont be as thrilled. And for that reason alone TL and EG should really fucking man up and just get this over with. | ||

And it not like im fiending to see this show match so bad although i would definitely have watched it, it's the fact that they say get behind us show as the love get every mother fucker you know buying some papa jhons, so we get all excited get our tiers done we sit we wait we think it's coming EG not give a fuck about us no way cats said it was legit so did incontrol it's coming 6 months goes past and we forget wcs goes on and when a little down time swings in people start to remember and it makes you feel like you got scammed, so now they are probably rushing to put together some half baked shit fest as usual, but the fact is these guys are just not professional enough, it's a big fuck you to everyone who participated in the promotion, so i am definitely going to give them a big fuck you back by never again buying Kingston ram and taking a red bull over monster in future. | ||

First of all, learn to spell, proof-read yourself for typo's, stop using "fuck" in every sentence you write. It makes you come across as an idiot... But maybe that's what you are. If you think buying Monster or Kingston RAMs helps EG, you're wrong. You clearly don't understand how advertising works. I could go on about your post, showing how everything that you say is dumb, but there is nothing in it for me to win, is there? The only thing I can advise you is to stay in school (or go back to school). | ||
