Multiple players still have yet to actually be paid for their IPL 5 tournament winnings.
Okay so IGN is still responsible for paying these amounts out.

@Rocketbearr no i don`t get prizemoney IPL T_T




I want to get my prize money IPL in LasVegas . I request so many times theres no answer.. What can i do??? I dont get prize money anymore?

Scarlett did get paid a few months ago what she was owed


Sasquatch
‏@coL_Sasquatch
@SaintSnorlax @MVPDongRaeGu no I think IGN still pays it, atleast they did for Scarlett... she just had to message @dting888 a bunch


David Ting ‏@dting888
@LorangerChris @SaintSnorlax @coL_Sasquatch @MVPDongRaeGu Talked to IGN this morning, and they are on it. Stay tuned.




@dting888 Me and John have yet to receive full payment for work during Shootmania and SXSW respectively.

Not surprising in the least, IGN and everything affiliated with it is terrible. It's a shame anyone actually put their trust into that organization.

This is horrible to hear.

But since IPL became a part of blizzard, the moment when IPL got taken over by Blizzard. Does this not fall under blizzards debts?

ROFL, hey blizzard, you know some of the people you hired used to work at a company that hasn't paid out it's debts. You mind picking up the tab?

edit: one of the stupidest conclusions I've ever seen someone jump to in my entire life.

As far as I know Blizzard didn't buy the brand IPL, they simply hired most of their old employees.

If blizzard truly bought out IPL then pretty sure they inherent their debits and are legally obligated to pay. However, if IPL went under and blizzard hired all the staff that left IPL and didn't buy the organization itself then Blizzard isn't responsible for paying off IPL's debits.

Then that means it would be IGN who is legally responsible.

This needs to be sorted, that is a lot of money they owe. These players really are lost without some kind of legal guidance.

Was that edit really necessary? I'm not a legal guy by any means, and i wasn't sure what happens to a companies debt when it gets absorbed by another company. no need to call me stupid

Horrible man!! Players need to be paid and like others have said I don't think blizzard is responsible for it. They didn't buy IPL. They just hired starff that were unemployed now and bought some of the equipment. They never actually bought IPL, I think.

There should be some kind of community consensus that the shitstorm starts within two months if not everything is paid or s.t.

Well thats not very nice. If Blizzard truly bought out IPL, then they would be legally obligated to pay up.


Yes you are right with that. But the quote stated that Blizzard hired the guys from IPL. I thought they bought the brand IGN. And when the tournament was held IPL was under the brand IGN. Blizzard didn't bought the brand so even when blizzard hired some of their employees doesn't mean that the debts gets transferred to blizzard. I hope this clears it a bit
