Huge one. Lots of players didn't get paid is what I read an hour ago. The community just pitch forks for one day then forgets.

https://www.reddit.com/r/starcraft/comments/2vjdwv/mc_joins_trig_esports/coi568t

When GEM got bought by that big time agency a few weeks ago, a number of esports veterans were making tweets that badically said GEM pulled off a great scam since they never paid their clients. So I wouldn't be so quick to assume that this new organization isn't going to pay its players.

Events in Dubai?? Who the hell will go?? The only people who actually live in Dubai are rich Saudis or those who got rich from the oil industry. How would that be a market for esports???

Ugh, Reis and MC are so... idk.

Just plopping in to say you are spouting massive bullshit about Dubai.

Saudi's don't live in Dubai, Emirati do. Actually, they sort of hate Saudi's.
Oil currently is less than 2% of Dubai GDP IIRC, whilst it was a bigger part of their income 20 years ago, it is not anymore.
Dubai aims to become THE city to be in the Middle East, possibly all of earth. Their investments in infrastructure, tourism and especially their financial districts are incredible. UAE also had the biggest amount of spending on foreign aid last year.

In fact, you seem completely clueless about the city.
They imported 8 soccer teams last winter (Real Madrid and FC Barcelona were amongst those, IIRC).
All they do is draw attention to themselves. They'll be the World Expo Host of 2020 too, by the way.

So please, Dubai showing interest in SC2 is more positive to us than negative - it shows some people out there regard eSports as mainstream, or at least worth investing in.

As a little sidenote, look up the book "My Vision" by Sheikh of Dubai and UAE Vice President Muhammed Bin Rashid Al Maktoum. It'll enlighten your limited view of the world.

Peace out.

not sure what any of that means, but do they claim they have 6.5 mil?


Yes, they claim that.

Edit: And they might have that and might need to launder some money.

since we're at it :

I can't read Swedish, what does this mean? Debts or not?
http://www.allabolag.se/5567813729/Trig_Entertainment_AB
http://www.allabolag.se/5566543707/Trig_Media_Group_AB



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.



TKR is short for tusen kronor (1000 SEK) so multiply by 1000 in those figures I guess
