YoDa, B4, Gerrard arrested for match-fixing - Page 46
Forum Index > SC2 General |
Based on the official Police investigation, only the above players have been implicated in matchfixing. There is no reason to further accuse other players and teams until we get more information. Incessant blind accusations will not be tolerated. Please read the thread and the updates before posting. As of page 54 we will be moderating against match fixing accusations for players who were not caught in this incident, including those using voided Pinnacle bets as evidence. | ||

I am not accusing anyone, maybe the guy knew that the other guy did his cheese so badly to intentionally lose and reacted by intentionally losing himself. I love the taste of drama in the morning. You're not funny. | ||

He was one of the best baseball players ever, got caught betting for his own team, and was still banned for life.South Korea Judicial system is a mess, they can charge you with fee for smoking pot in Amsterdam. Second I think E sport industry in general are over reacting "with ban for life", even Olympic committee or FIFA do not ban their players for life. I think ban for year and financial fee is enough. They will have this scandal for their entire life. I always thought Choya came off as a nice guy, and I think that tweet confirms it. We really need to be focusing our scorn on Gerrard here. Yeah, he was in a tough situation, but the solution to that is to close up gracefully, not drag vulnerable kids into shit like this. | ||

Most surprising is the tiny tiny amounts of money it took to fix these matches. I've never said it before, but I am jumping aboard the dead game train. I don't really believe SC2 will survive for more than a few years max. | ||

Yoda is 22 years old and has been playing full-time Starcraft since he was at least 18. While he is legally an adult, I don't know any 22 year olds who have it together. When you're 22, dedicated your entire post-school life to Starcraft, your career is shot, and you don't know what to do with your future, it would be harder than normal to turn down this criminal opportunity presented to you by your trusted coach. Coaches are like parents to these kids (22 is still a kid in my eyes, especially when they don't have any real life experience), and if you offer a bunch of people the equivalent of a 1st place prize pool in a major tournament, one of them are going to cave. However, if Yoda was not largely persuaded by Gerrard, and decided this largely on his own, it would be fine to come down on him. tl;dr Yoda is still pretty much a kid. Gerrard may have had great influence over his actions. Maybe not. Wait before pitchforks don't expect this amount of wisdom from the internet. It will just make you sad. | ||

Ah, whatever. I came to Korea a few months ago and went to watch Prime's final match in Proleague. Saw them all outside and got a pic with the entire team. They were all pretty grim looking. Probably already knew shit was going down soon. Fixed the link though. | ||

http://www.korealaw.com/sub/information/boardView.asp?brdId=corporate&brdIdx=62 That is of course very smart politics, about as intelligent as making prostitution illegal. If gambling itself is already illegal there is literally no reason to not start fixing it for the criminals. | ||
