Quantic probably told Hyun it would be best if they did it for him. Fair enough. Well now players know that they should do it themselves unless the organisation is really trustworthy and professional. (Which Quantic certainly hasn't been for a long time..) | ||

I am kinda glad it happen, put more pressure, exposure and accountability on the tournaments and teams with their policy regarding price money distribution , unfortunately Hyun has to be the poster boy. =( | ||

Doesn't Hyun have a contract that should guarantee he receives his money? It seems like he should be able to sue instead of just accept that he won't be paid and question his life decision of being a progamer...wtf | ||

Now that I think about it, his stress over his salary and prize earnings might explain his poor showings lately. How else could you play with focus and effort if you are unable to discern if you are going to make a living off your job. Especially as a progamer for several years, it would be incredibly disappointing if he has to quit cause of a fraud. | ||

I realize it's depressing and demoralizing to be in your situation, but you must act quickly. There are time limits that apply to bringing the sort of lawsuit you'll need to commence to get the money owed to you and the longer you wait, the greater the risk that the relevant time limit will expire and you will have lost the opportunity to get what is owing to you. I'm sure there are people who can recommend a Quebec lawyer to you. If not, you can contact me directly and I'll locate one for you. When you meet with your lawyer, be sure to bring every record you have of any agreement and any communication relating to the money that is owed to you. | ||
