Difficult to lend the "sport" credibility when people aren't even getting paid for their efforts.

ROFL, hey blizzard, you know some of the people you hired used to work at a company that hasn't paid out it's debts. You mind picking up the tab?

Man I have to use your logic with my lawyer. I just bought a piece of property and someone owed back taxes on the property. I only found out after I closed on the property.

"ROFL hey Town of Marlborough Massachusetts, you know some of the people that used to own this property hasn't paid on their debts. You mind going after them and not me?

your lawyer should of told you about title insurance

it's not like Rupert Murdoch doesn't have the money!! He does own IGN after all.

I tried for 2 years to contact the support from IGN, it's a ghost. No one reads those tickets. NO ONE.
So I really hope they can use ex-insider contacts like David Ting cause else, I see no light for them. Maybe a legal action ? Dunno :/

Really over waiting for tournament money never knowing when I'll be paid next. Can't live like this #WCSseason1

This is probably bigger news. With WCS being Blizzard's main tournament, why aren't people getting angry at this?

No he does not. Newscorp sold IGN to Ziff Davis months ago.
You should not have to pay to watch the GSL, Proleague, or OSL at a reasonable time. That is not "fine" and it's BS to say otherwise. My sig since 2011. http://www.youtube.com/user/dabom88

I don't think Blizzard will do that... Well, I'm not sure. Stupid IGN.

Sad news, for everyone that seems to love to hate MLG they seem to have never really had any issues with paying players.

I doubt they players can do a lot with the company gone now :/

This is not entirely true, it took a really long time for Leenock to get his 50k from Providence.

Well it sucks Blizzard hasn't paid out season 1 yet and are slow. However, the difference is you know blizzard will pay out, so moonglade will get his money in the end. The IPL payment is more up in the air.

MLG was in charge of WCS AM season 1. Doesn't that mean they are the ones that have to pay? I don't know exactly how the agreement worked between MLG and Blizzard, but I recall MLG saying the prize pool at MLG spring was low because of all the money they had given away in WCS AM, implying that they were they ones paying (iirc, with support from Blizzard, but it would still be their responsibility).

I've never understood why payouts aren't instant and why players don't start raising hell within days of not getting paid. If prize money is from sponsors (aka guaranteed since it's not based on entry fees) is it a paperwork issue?

Was that edit really necessary? I'm not a legal guy by any means, and i wasn't sure what happens to a companies debt when it gets absorbed by another company. no need to call me stupid


i think fingering blizzard with such a terrible logic on the front page of a news story on this site was pretty stupid.

here's hoping that IPL pays the players, i feel really bad for them.
