Did you miss the part about promising salaries and gear, signing contracts, and then not delivering on them? | ||

As management for an amateur team myself, breaking into the pro scene with sponsors and having a solid team is the holy frail. If people offer you money and write up what look like legit contracts it's easy to over look some details. if a guy has a good reputation, history with the team and a relationship with the players I can see how it would seem fairly reasonable of them to wait for money and not look a gift horse in the mouth. Bottom line is this guy is a sketchy as whole who needs to get what's coming to him. thank you. I'm happy we caught him early rather than later and didnt let him continue to develop the scam and w/e goal he had. | ||

What was your intention Athena? Why don't you explain the whole story from your point of view, this whole thing seems so senseless, there must've been a goal. | ||

I mean to me just sounds like an idiot tried to scam a team but the only thing he scammed them of was putting SMI in their team name for what 3 weeks? hey blade, i remember you from ladder anyways, we got lucky that it scammed us out of time and energy. We got him quite fast, and I rather not think what would've happened if we let the scam go on.. I imagine he had some end goal.. although no idea. | ||

the sponsor: personally sponsored me and my LoL team himself. then i was in a bad car accident, i was forced to move back to texas, due to the fact i needed some help during my recovery state. i do wish sMi the best of luck, but i think the actions that have taken place was out of line, especially targeting ME and ONLY me, when im not the one who did all of this. so what if i have 2 things on my "pending" record, people make mistakes. but i guess they are all perfect. i personally did not make these promises to these players. this is what the sponsor and myself worked out and agreed on, so this is what i was able to offer to them. of course maybe i didnt take pics or anything RIGHT away when they asked, im sorry but when i spend 8+ hours a day w/ the team and i choose to go out for a night or something, i think i have the right to do that. anyways, GL sMi wish you the best. i know things are not do good for you guys, nor me, but please keep in your heart that it wasnt ME who did this.
