Simon Boudreault @QuanticSamBuca
Hopes got crushed. Broken Dreams & what ever.
This is just pathetic. It's like he's a moron at a blackjack table gambling away hyun's money and feeling sorry for himself when he went off and lost it all. Because that's exactly what it is.
We need more Xeris's in the world and less dumb asses leading teams.

Please inform us when this ass has been appropriately punished and HyuN has received his money

That's why Violet had to get an "Athlete's visa" and people made a big deal about it. They thought it was implying that Esports were a real sport, but really, it was just the fact that there is no such thing as a progamer's visa (as of right now).
eSports is subject to the same laws as any other sports/business/whatever.
laws don't need to be made for every possible matter of fact. They rather need to be general enough that they can be applied to many situations. Otherwise the law would not be flexible enough to keep up with the ever-changing society. That is also why violet got an athletes' visa. Existing law applied to a new situation. No need to pass an Pro-Gamer Visa Act or anything along those lines.

Anyone got this guy's address? I know a few people who are very, very persuasive and might be able to pay him a visit (depending on location). PM me if you have his address.

Simon the scammer is gone forever. He is in hiding now. He will likely never be found.
The SC2 community lost its last chance to confront him about his shady dealings in esports when they let him off the hook with Massan's incident. Truly tragic.

Omg, this is really really sad. I really hope he's able to get the money still, I would even donate to make that possible, if lots of people would help..

He will likely never be found? What are you even talking about. His contact details are known to the Quantic crew. Massan even lived with that guy and his family. He is just not available online. There is no information about him being in hiding or anything. Jeez...

How has there not been a lawsuit for all the money this guy has stolen from various players? It is high time that Every team that has stolen money from players get put into the spotlight. If Esports wants to become legitimate it's time for the heads of teams to start becoming accountable, and time for all players to put any troubles regarding the money THEY earned into the spotlight so we as fans know not to EVER support these sleezy manangers. How has no one taken a stand against this guy before? He's done this a few times already now.

To add context to the original tweet you posted, the Quantic LoL team (the one from Korea that came to the US) jokingly made the reference to crushing the hopes and dreams of their competition. Ending with "what ever" doesn't really suggest self pity at all.
I agree he is very incompetent and appears to be dodging responsibility, I just thought you could use some context.

Yeah thats what I was thinking. There must be people on Quantic who know him irl, or atleast knows him good enough that they have his adress, contact information and such. And this Simon probably has a family who knows where he is. Im sure he is just living his life as usual offline. It cant be impossible to get a hold of him.

Exactly. It's not a matter of esports. Quantic is a business, a business that hasn't paid out it's employee(s). End of all discussions.

Yes and actually Hyun shouldn't ask for this tourney he should simply ask for a Lawyer that's enthusiastic about eSports represent him probono and Sue him for Emotional Distress and Back Pay and Also report him to the BBB.
This is actually small claims but No judge is going to see this as good business practice.... especially when its a breach of contract.... which actually Hyun you don't have to play for Quantic anymore if he isn't paying you... check your contract to see what the terms actually are.....
|
If someone can make a contract and then break it and there is nothing to do about it besides taking more losses than gains, does that mean the legal system is broken?
|
Good thing guys like Savior were banned for life, while this scumbag and the likes have no problem whatsoever. Hyun - as many others - is damaging life health, spend his time and efforts, basically *his life* to be a player and entertainer, and mr. Simon is nowhere to be found (right). As for contracts on McDonalds napkins, they're good. I think Hyun should sue this mofo and let him naked, take his house, something, to prevent players from such abuse. Otherwise, what? a syndicate? Already sounds moronic; I imagine a Jimmy Hoffa-like telling Jaedong "today comes the mayor, so you have to play terran".
