after reading the article I think this resumes the situation pretty well.
dude says he took business classes for 4 years, regrets he didnt have written contracts with players / sponsors. He sure studied hard those 4 years...

Based on another interview I read with you, you're referring to your high school education. lol @ even bringing that up as if it's something that would give you any experience or know-how whatsoever. and before you say you went through some specialized curriculum in HS, I would have the exact same response if you had cited an actual college degree in business. completely meaningless when it comes to real world ability.

Considering that he regularly tells people he's "retired" and apparently doesn't go to school, and is only 20, I somehow doubt he graduated 4 years of business classes already. The fact that he's probably spewing bullshit in the apology post shows how trustworths anything in this is.

By far my biggest mistake from a management standpoint was [...]. The next biggest mistake I made was [...]. The next biggest mistake has to be not telling the complete truth to everyone 100% of the time. It was and still is the wrong thing for me to have done. Oh man this is really so funny :D
So again, I beg of you, PLEASE do not let what I have done change your opinion or support of eSports. This one is not bad either :D

That's a few o.o, I really only follow TL, acer, myi, eg. The others I don't notice as much but I could just not be looking at enough information.
Edit: IVD too, they've been showing up a LOT on my radar.

I didn't even know he was on Fnatic, clearly they're doing something wrong with their branding.

After reading that drivel of an apology, I was scared he might actually attract naive sympathizers. Thank goodness I am not the only one to see it.
Those 4 years of business and you managed to mess up basic rules.
biggest mistake from a management standpoint was not having written contracts on everything.
lol um my 12 year old nephew asks me to put it in writing when I promise to take him out for video games.
Are you telling me you made a mistake that my 12 year old nephew does not do?
next biggest mistake I made was saying I could provide something before I ever had any physical or written proof that Alloy eSports would receive it
So you're saying your next biggest mistake was lying to the players because you made the first mistake.
Right…
next biggest mistake has to be not telling the complete truth to everyone 100% of the time.
And here we are at your last "biggest mistake" which appears to be the third biggest, if we assume you ordered them in importance. Well this sounds like your other second "biggest mistake". Essentially you made only 2 "biggest mistake".
The only points I award you is the ending, because I agree with you this game is not dead. No thanks to you!
The only thing good to come out of this is that I now know JadePop and Cube. This horrible experience gave them a bit of exposure, so its a small silver lining.
To all the players involved, I hope the best for you.

Anyway, this situation makes me sad I'm surprised that others weren't more skeptical of his promises before getting involved but then again, hindsight is 20/20...
