I have stayed in 3 and a half hotels for a few hundred dollars over a weekend. And this is being moderate in your budget, you can go cheaper although being a player he could probably split costs with another person to room with so he can be closer to the EVO ballroom.Ok, someone else can look up the hotel cost, i'm done with this forever until something more is said lol
Huh? I was just commenting on Eventhubs getting him immediate exposure is all.Why the fuck should we be responsible for helping him fix his horrible life choices?
The lack of UP FRONT transparency in this matter is so fucking shady, I don't care how good of a player he is. I can't respect that, sorry. But opening donations before this kerfuffle is explained is shady whether he has a legit reason to do so or not.
Also can somebody link to wherever Triforce was asking for donations to EMP? Saw that being talked about but couldn't find it myself.
It was posted earlier in this thread I believe, but it's not on his fb anymore. I think what you stated is the biggest reason to not donate. It's pretty much why should we when we were to believe that dieminion got a job and thus couldn't take time off, and now he does? Plus Jebailey, whether you believe him or not, commentated on how the was another reason as to why dieminion couldn't attend ceo that wasn't job related
Where did the "Dieminion has a job now" thing come from? Because I don't recall him ever saying that. I thought that was just a theory people were floating.

Hmmm...Arturo Sanchez said:After seeing the amount of onation drives crop up before evo, i feel a lot better about my own situation. not rich or anything like that (heh, i still cant afford a nice dslr for the stream yet,) but its a nice feeling when you can pay for your expenses at expensive ass events like evo! maybe some of my top player friends should get into the content creation game so they dont have to rely on sponsors that can flake on you at any minute?
just thinking out loud
shutupandtakemymoney.gif*I will never talk about Marvel patch again.
Can you do it without burning any bridges tho? I would LOVE to hear what you have to say about it BTW and I'm sure I'm not alone in this.man i want to pop off so bad
Some people just feel naked without a few letters in front of their name.
I do believe that a lot of current FGC sponsorships do pay for tournament entry fees, if not necessarily for transportation and lodging for tournaments.
We're broke when it is convenient.Donations >>> CPM lol.
Every time I say the FGC is broke, the $$ comes out of the woodworks, I should push my subscription button more lol.
I talk bad about SRK because for a site that wants to be the epicenter of the FGC, it's doing an absolutely lousy job of doing so. The layout of the site is a disaster- the forums are hard to read and navigate, it's not a lightweight site, and for up-to-the-minute news EventHubs does a REALLY good job on keeping up w/ coverage. They do a really good job keeping things up to date.Seemed to me like you were commending them for their quick turnaround on a joke story like this and saying it was something we (SRK) should and/or want to do.
Apologies if I misinterpreted that, but I've seen you talk bad about us before with no real explanation when I've asked for one.
Why does one person need $1,500? Is it going to the other members?
It is slightly better than certain MMO players who have 'Give me 10000 for a new car' donation drives and they succeed, but still kinda off-putting.
I will laugh my ass off if he does not get top 8 at any game
Did the taito station team tournament start? I went back a few pages but all I see is people talking about Marvel practice matches.
Sometimes they get merchandise. Other times, it's just the opportunity to be a part of something bigger and more exclusive. And other times, they get venue/tournament fees paid for (even if they don't actually get any money handed to them).
B.S. explanations being used to cover things up for P.R. reasons is hardly unique to the FGC.
Welcome to the FGC, the community where explanations are made up and the sponsors don't matter.

You don't bite the hand that feeds.I think Triforce is going to blame it on VxG.
WTF this is a thing?It is slightly better than certain MMO players who have 'Give me 10000 for a new car' donation drives and they succeed, but still kinda off-putting.

Amazing.

And then if he wins EVO, or places, he walks out with a bunch of cash. I forget who suggested it, but maybe it'd be a good idea if those who invested in Die get a large percentage of what he gets out of it back, proportionately. But people still shouldn't be donating to this BS in the first place.Ah, getting stuff paid for is still getting paid to me.
I'm shocked at these turn of events. Truly shocked. Legit shook.
triforce is doing another donation drive to fund for his emp players
seperate from dieminion which means dieminion is out of emp or something? why does he need 1500
You're supposed to donate for 'murica goddamnit!$1500 for a player that has no chance of winning AE. I swear to god this community is mentally deficient sometimes.
$1500 for a player that has no chance of winning AE. I swear to god this community is mentally deficient sometimes.
I hope he does a Mike Ross and gets bopped during pools. That would be amazing
But that's the same thing if Dieminion is still in EMP. With the 1500 you can send two EMP players to EVO.Yeah, I am not donating to EMP. Triforce is too shady.
