I am about an hour on the job and already TL has put me to work. Trying to brainstorm ways to remind people Zenio still exists. #TLProblems

I got an email from Alex Garfield completely out of the blue to arrange a meeting, we settled on a time and he had his personal fighter pilot pick me up right outside my apartment. Then we flew to New York, where I had to take this series of tunnels to his mansion under central park.

In his office, we made a little bit of small talk before he told me he wanted me on EG. I admit I suspected that was why I was being called. What else could it have been? I was flattered, but I said I'd never betray Liquid, they made me, and I explained how I was very loyal because without them I would be in a gutter addicted to crack, without question that's where I'd be, and then he told me what a standard EG salary would be.

I must have appeared to be blown away or something because Alex said, "You'd have literally shit your pants if you played dota."

"I only have one question before we do this." Alex said, "Can you replace inControl, talent wise?" I explained to him that I was better than inControl one handed while piss drunk.

"I'm going to hold you to that, TLO." Alex said, and that was all he needed to know.

"There's only one rule at EG," Alex said, "You can do whatever you want, but don't tell our entire fan base to go fuck themselves...it sounds easy, but it's been an issue before."

I agreed and we shook hands, as I was leaving, Alex called me, I turned and he looked at me meaningfully and then whispered, just loud enough for me to hear:

"doooooohhhhhhhhh-taaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhh" and then with a slight nod he turned away.
