He thinks you’re a fanboy because of that. Not that I feel like I need to defend my opinion... But I had no opinion of TB before this. (I didn't like Axiom, but only because of what had gone down with Slayers) I had read snippets that he was critical on a number of things related to running a team/organization, but other than that I knew he was a caster and his logo is a tophat (why?) I'm "supporting" him because I agree with what he said, not because I think he's going to friend me on facebook. | ||

We were horribly mistaken. 1. so dreamhack or eg cover your travel expenses to bucharest? 2.MVP is not begging, they are offering entertainment in return. | ||

offline finals of sc2l is at dh bucharest. I think Axiom payed those flights. And i dont think GSTL covers intercontinental travel costs. So which teamleague does in fact pay? IPTL? yeah.. they must be the standard.. | ||

Assuming Axiom knew the deal ahead of time they shouldn't have participated. I said the same thing about EG dota team not going to starladder finals. If you aren't going to pay-up to send your team to the LAN finals based on the agreements outlined by the event organizers, DONT PLAY IN THE EVENT. If ATC didn't inform Axiom or Axiom were misinformed then that sucks and you can retract everything I said. | ||

You should EXPECT me to jump on the hate train when you make an announcement I don’t like. This is the internet and hating on people is what we do. I man, seriously, why would you disrespect your fans(the fans are watching TB rip him apart and feel totally respected) by posting this crap. Your so fake famous.” Its pretty funny, though I bet the guy doesn’t even know its funny. These posts are the worst I've read so far and that says a lot. How old are you, 12? Don't get me wrong; I'm not agreeing with JimmiC but what exactly is the purpose of these 2 posts? | ||

I am 33 and enjoy watching people who have no idea what they are talking about get upset about things they don't understand and then getting yelled at for it. Its the simple things in life. I also like going for walks and watching puppies fight over chew toys. Also: | ||

I don't like the Axiom solution. I live with it by being happy for Millenium and sad for Axiom. That's it. Live with it instead of arguing. At least it was dealt with swiftly, with TaKe being aware and looking for a backup. Could have been worse. | ||
