In order: Not MLGs fault. Honest error when it come to managing their stream and bandwidth at the venue. Just a bunch of bull shit you made up. PPV is a totally fine model and someone needed to try it out. | ||

Just a bunch of bull shit you made up. ROFL look your facts first. http://paulchaloner.tumblr.com/post/5800957816/why-would-mlg-sundance-buy-twitter-followers and to clarify, mlg only had 5000 spectators in 2010 until sc2 make them grow. and now they are leaving sc2. | ||

MLG makes a SC2 PPV event and TL acts like entitled assholes saying they won't pay a dime. Valve sells PPV tickets for DotA TV and makes $4 million for TI3. Looks like TL and SC2 can go and fuck themselves. | ||

Valve sells PPV tickets for DotA TV and makes $4 million for TI3. but you know, the twitch stream is free, and the vods are free, on both twitch and youtube. really different to a model exclusively PPV | ||

They may have made questionable decisions and they may have screwed up (repeatedly), but their tournaments were unquestionably awesome. MLG Fall and MLG Winter 2013 are some of my favorite tournaments of all time. They weren't half-assed, they were awesome. All tournaments have flaws - Blizzcon did, Dreamhacks do, IEMs do - singling out MLG and claiming that they more than anyone else produced bad tournaments and somehow made sure it cost them as little as possible so that they could "pillage" is ridiculous. Zealously biased towards those two tournaments because Life won them both don't be fooled. But I agree, people do love to shit on MLG tournaments, and yet they were some of the best weekend tournaments out there. | ||

Wow, some tumbler blog that freely admits to using the service themselves, how damning is that. That some fact finding right there, super reputable, very informative and clearly FACT. Clearly this master of tumbler has dug up some shady business and nefarious deeds. Man, these MLG haters are the best. The endless amount of non-sense they will dig up just to try to justify their internet outrage. MLG is not without flaws, but no one in Esports is.

Its not even the entire community, but a small minority that just loves to whine and pitchfork anything they can.(damn, I miss SotG) | ||

No one is paid to follow you. Its advertising for twitter. What you is only partly true if you stretch the meaning of the word buying. | ||

But it was weird to see an outfit like MLG basically doing community casting, was never going to last. I used to love to fall asleep to imba, playhems etc. They were filling that void for a while. | ||

Having only seen that blog now (2 years later) I'm actually confused as to why RedEye wanted to post that in the first place. Looks to me like the service is just like the basic twitter "hey, you like this, why not follow this as well?". That's just advertising, and there's nothing wrong with that at all. It's also exactly as p6 says, not what the original guy said it was (buying twitter followers). MLG gave us a starting point, and there's nothing saying they wont be back. They're a business and need to make money where they can. Axeltoss and Axslav with both be fine, they'll find something new, and they were given a huge opportunity by MLG in the first place. Stop ragging on MLG for this, they've given more than they've gotten and they've decided they can't continue in this vein any longer at this time. Chill the hell out. | ||
