Bzzt, it's because they've been late to payments (VERY LATE) before.

No, that's not actually how things work. I didn't come to argue. Nothing you said really contradicts anything, either. I'm talking about one thing and you're talking about forgiveness. I'll address your major point, though! I don't see a post from CEO saying that. Also, SCR was mainly a Level|Up event, not a TL event. They are not implicitly married to each other. Level|Up is its own entity. Sure, TL was there in the event, but TL is really not as relevant as you think. Everything there ran smoothly pretty much because Alex Valle practically willed it so. That said, I wouldn't be surprised if they do eventually pay everyone out like last time, but what does it tell you that the event needs to say in their promo video that pay outs will happen at the event? Why is that kind of reassurance needed? Because they're sketchy. That's all. Again, please draw your own conclusions as you will!

I posted it here for y'all to draw your own conclusions. Just understand that a good deal of the top players originally were interested in attending CEO and now have a conflict of interest because someone with a sketchy payout history jumped out promising a huge pot. That is all from my PoV. (Remember that SCR was more Level|Up than TL.)

Yes. www.ceogaming.org

Were you planning on winning the $5K?

Yes. www.ceogaming.org

Alex Valle is pretty much the shit and he is a huge reason why SCR was so successful. I am pretty sure he will be involved with TL too, no doubt.

I guess you didn't read the whole post.

Nah, drop that shit please. He just thought I was attacking Rin here. I'm not. Rin is a (rather unfortunate) bystander in this whole mess. I've made it clear in my post now that I am not trying to call Rin out or anything. As far as I know that guy could be the coolest person on the planet (he's probably pretty fucking cool, actually, but I wouldn't know because I am honestly not an active member of the BB community).

I am not shitting on Rin, I am shitting on TL. Get your facts right.

A lot of people don't know what's going down, but suffice it to say: there was already a major tournament announced on these dates in Florida that grants an Evo seed. ReveLAtions went ahead with their tournament anyway. DISCLAIMER: THIS HAS NOTHING REALISTICALLY TO DO WITH "RinHara5aki" OTHER THAN HE'S THE PERSON ADVERTISING THIS FOR TOURNAMENT LEGACY. MY "BEEF" (IF YOU WANT TO CALL IT THAT) IS WITH TOURNAMENT LEGACY ALONE. NOT LEVEL|UP, NOT "RinHara5aki", BUT TOURNAMENT LEGACY. I will copy/paste what I posted into the thread on SRK for you all to peruse. ........... "Meanwhile, we will continue on with our large pot tournament scheduled on the same date, forcing players from other parts of the country that were seriously considering traveling to Florida to now also seriously consider our tournament because of the prize pot, thereby directly interfering with the success of our 'counterparts' in Florida. We realize that this sounds shady as hell, and we (do not) apologize." Here's a PM I got on the subject from someone who shall remain nameless: Translation: you've gone and pissed off a large amount of the community for absolutely no reason. GOOD SHIT GUYS :tup: EDIT: Holy shit, so I post that and now I've got more PMs in my mailbox from people who want to remain anonymous but would like to speak up. GOOD SHIT GUYS :tup: :tup: EDIT 2 HIT COMBO: I just got off the phone with someone who has some insight on the situation. Apparently TL is banking off of E3 attendance to stick around to stay for the tournament. While they may or may not have the money already for the pot, a lot of their planning may be centered on the E3 date and proximity to try and piggyback off of E3 to create success for their own tournament. The big pot is just honey in the pot to attract all the flies that weren't sure where they were going to go in the first place. GOOD SHIT GUYS :tup: :tup: :tup: EDIT 3 HIT COMBO: Someone just brought up this interesting point... SCR was rescheduled into South Florida Challenge by Tournament Legacy last year... As a result, we lost a lot of potential attendance from outside players. Now the same shit is happening to another Florida tournament. The fuck? GOOD SHIT GUYS :tup: :tup: :tup: :tup: This. Why does Jebailey have to fix shit that this fool broke? This fool can fix his own shit. FUCKING MORE AIR COMBO EDITS JESUS: Got some more information. So apparently, from AIM: GOOD SHIT GUYS :tup: :tup: :tup: :tup: :tup: ........... Shady? Yes indeed!
