You wonder how exactly they propose to make money? Hopefully we are wrong about this new team

Looks like MC was so desperate for a team and Reis got him involved in a group which looks suspicious without doing much research. Going to wait for more evidence but so far from what OtherWorld shows the organization doesn't exactly look like a reputable one.

I don't have time to do more research but short story is that Norman looks like the kind of guy who flies from company to company promising them to make profit and shit but instead takes all the money for himself, using immoral and unprofessional (not putting contracts on paper for example, I guess some other shady eSports orgs know that trick heh) means of doing things.
Now why would he invest in eSports? Heh, I dunno. I don't think that compared to the money he makes flying/stealing from company to company, scamming players a la Quantic would be worth it. So does he plan on involving rich players like MC or xSomething in business shit to gain big money? Or does he really think that eSports is the future and that if he gains monopoly over the foreign eSports scene and manages to bring it up to soccer-level of following and exposure he will be the richest man on earth? Hmm, I dunno.

The Pro Gamer Team Esport circuit ("The PGT circuit")

Trig esports has the ambition to set up an esports world tour organized similarly to the Formula one circus with monthly events in the major capitals across Europe and Asia. During 2015 Trig will obtain proof of concept by hosting three major events in Dubai. Each event will go on for four days covering major disciplines of esports.


So ambitious and a ton of money to throw around, whith nobody knowing what they do. This seems familiar and likely to fail.

^ he probably just wants to launder some money. Which I don't understand why anyone think is bad for esports, money is money wherever they came from. (yes I don't have problem with people throwing dirty money at eSports, fuck me).

to clarify, same happens in real sports, just in much bigger stakes - do you think all the money Abramovich is throwing at Chelsea are 'clean' money? Didn't think so...

Yes, they claim that.

Edit: And they might have that and might need to launder some money.
Maru and Serral are probably top 5.

I can read swedish and it says they are going behind every year in networth. But not that much, idk. They are going -$200 bucks which is so weird for a company a year.

They paid like 60 bucks to employees the entire year. And nothing to the CEO

The amount of money involved in this company from networth etc is superlow.

I wuld like to note that if someone needs to have some money laundered and doesn't want to expose ESPORTS to such grave things, he is always welcome to throw some my way

Because we dont need video games to become just like sports with its terrible social vices and corporate bull shit? Only reason a lot of people enjoy this hobby and not sports aside from whether they are good at it is that social factor, I don't need to see people rioting about video games and dying from stampedes after confronting police in venues. Nor do I want players to get fucked over by shady corporate decisions.
