People say that doing stuff like this doesn't hurt esports but when people start off doing something and then just stop half way through they actually do hurt esports, wish people would just not get involved if they don't have a clue about what they are doing. | ||

This is the reason i said it shouldn't have happened, Sombrero is right the UK will now look like a joke because of fools who have their heads up their ass. | ||

This is the reason i said it shouldn't have happened, Sombrero is right the UK will now look like a joke because of fools who have their heads up their ass. Guessing by the fact Eleaven hasn't been on skype in over 2 months I would say it definitely is not happening anymore. But I am still glad someone at least tried, rather than sitting on a forum putting people down for attempting to do good for the UK scene. And how does the UK look like a joke? We have a couple of people in the UK that anyone anywhere actually cares about, other than them the UK scene doesn't look like anything... At least if we all adopted your attitude the UK scene would grow, right? | ||

You tell me, is the UK scene better off or worse off because of this thread? If you adopted my attitude you would get active in the scene and do something to help progress it. Me stating what i did was a realistic view and if you dont want to read realistic posts dont read the internet, go back to nursery and listen to fairy tales. | ||

Its like this, if your car is not working very well but its getting you by and you want to make some changes to it, do you a.) get someone who doesn't know what they are doing to do the work, give it there best shot but ultimately fail, or b.) get someone who knows what they are doing to perform the work. If you are setting up a UK SC2 house, it makes sense that someone who is established in eSports and has contact to sponors and relevant people organises it. I commend the effort, but if you aren't going to finish what you start, don't start at all; it makes the community take one step foward, two steps back. | ||

Do think it was always going to run into trouble without it being a team adventure and a bunch of people who only knew each other from what they were tlaking about on skype. If they had known each other for months then it very well may of worked out. | ||

It doesnt effect it at all, making a big deal out of it etc.. in the end they tried to do something that would of been great for esports and it didnt work out. big deal, I commend them at least trying, but circumstances change.

It hinders all future efforts of setting something like this up in the UK, people will be more reluctant to be part of a house because the only previous effort is this failure. | ||

Plus its not liek anyone even moved in? Or people had paid first month rent and its all fallen through. I agree someone who is well known in the community would probably of made it work if they had the idea but its not like the guy took their money and fleeced them. It just hasnt worked out. The majority of ideas always go down the drain. | ||
