I’m 99% sure sponsors like EG and Complexity would rather not have their names and players associated with shady ass tourneys like Revelations, even if they win. They aren’t EMP.
All I can say is, for the most part, people can be fuckin’ stupid.
Remember when Planet Zero did some shady shit (it’s worse than what’s going on here, that’s for sure), people still kept going back to that arcade and support it regardless how many times they got fucked. I don’t understand how players kept doing that. Even players who got royally fucked, a year later those players would give it a second chance and got fucked again! Banning the TO didn’t really change anything since PZ was given the chance to host one of the EVO quals for points (hosted Mortal Kombat in the restroom, sup).
Wondering if John Nelson will be in charge of EVO points one year.
My one regret is not having a beer in my hand when starting this. Needless to say, this has been remedied.
If they did then we wouldn’t see Wong, Ricky, Combofiend and Fchamp there and NOT sending them there would have made a statement. I’d like to think the FGC has some degree of common sense to see this thread and make their own decisions based on the information (I don’t understand why some stream monsters seem to hate redrapper but thats just me) but given the fanboyism going around they’ll probably believe the high profile players versus 1st person information and other legit people who are also high profile players, but may not necessarily be in the spotlight.
As a man once said during SFxT: battle for the 25,000 “It’s all about the paypuh.”
Pretty funny to know that people will sell their integrity for so little.
Let’s not sugar coat it, they steered people into a trap. There’s no way FChamp and Jwong were completely out the loop like Max. You don’t do shit that burns the scene when you “love the community and want it to grow”.
I’m not saying crucify them, but they are accountable for their actions.

My interview w John Nelson + commentary
No answers?
Follow the money. It sucks for people who’ve been in the scene for a long time but you can buy your way into legitimacy now if you just pay off people and yell loud enough. That’s why IMO it’s triple important for players to be informed customers and pay attention to threads like this. You can’t STOP this stuff but you certainly can make your voice heard and also vote with your dollars.
wait so he did something like this before but why did no one say anything before?
While it’s cool to (rightfully) put this guy on blast, what’s the point of uploading this interview (to further discredit him) if it’s MST:3K style and you can barely hear what he is saying?
Better to put the interview out raw and let him do the discrediting on his own.
Money buys you extra lives.
Agree’d. Having commentary is nice an all, but I can’t hear what Nelson is saying half the time due to how low the sound is from the other footage. Wearing head phones, this video wasn’t nice to watch.
Quoting again after PozerWolf for emphasis. The commentary just makes everything look fucking dumb and the whole issue seem like a lover’s quarrel.
You’d have to ask ultradavid for that one.
Unless you can stretch some of John’s stealing to go for a civil suit.
I’m uploading the raw as well. It’s just a big file. That’s the first one that got up
man thank goodness for Super Arcade.

He knew what was true love, and he was making it.
