I do not know where to begin, but here it goes....

Although, admittedly, I saw the first and second page of this post last night

when there were only 100 posts I decided to let this thread evolve till

I arrived in Vegas and now I'm definitley glad I made that decision

because it has given me a clear perspective on who my true friends are and

has caused me to re-evaluate the character of those who I thought were friends/

supporters...

I really don't know where to start, there are so many things

people think they know but in reality they have no clue of. I guess I'll start

off with MattG's claims:


The fact of the matter is that the situation took place over a year ago where I messaged MattG on pocketfives during the tournament telling him I am helping my friend in this satellite so he was

aware of it. I noticed afterwords he hadn't responded so I AIMed him to

 see if he got it. I was literally astonished when I heard him

say I bragged or gloated since there is no shot I would EVER do that,

 and anyone that knows me even a LITTLE knows that is SO absurd to say.  I have no clue how he got the impression that I was bragging, but it is so wrong and I WISH I had the conversation to post on here because everyone would see that nothing I said was even CLOSE to bragging.   

 

Andy McCleod, I'm almost speechless at your post. I guess I should not be surprised that you are so immature at 16 (yes Andy Mcleod is 16 for those of you who didn't know) . If you are going to lie about your age and say you are playing professionally, then you should be able to responsibly choose your games. That is the most basic prerequisite for even playing professionally. Furthermore, I have no idea why you are pretending that we were friends. I don't even think we've talked on MSN for more than 30 minutes collectively. How you can try to say with a straight face that I took advantage of you...one of the best players in the online world...is truly beyond me, and you should be ashamed of yourself for trying to suggest that. Were you planning on returning the money if you won, or are you entitled to take free shots on tilt and if u lose simply impose a moral dilemma on the person who beat you?

 

As far as the situation with FTP goes I hope that everyone can understand

 the intense scrutiny that I am under and be respectful and patient at this

time.  I currently am in the process of finalizing a formal interview with a

major media outlet to explain the situation that has been discussed.

 Please understand that it would be impossible to address everyone's

questions/comments by responding to each one individually. 

Obviously, I am doing this interview so that I can hopefully answer

all of your collective questions and concerns.

 

I am hopeful the interview will take place this weekend, but

it will certainly be as soon as possible.  I promise to be fully open

and honest about the situation.

 

I would like everyone to know that I appreciate your thoughts and concern on this matter.  The support is appreciated. 

P.S. YTIU is posing as yellowsub and created the RIP Imper1um thread in case anyone did not figure that out.

Im pulling for ya Sorel, that you do the right thing here. What ever that may be, Im confident it will be the right one. You have so much to gain by just being yourself and nobodys puppet. As far as Mcloed goes, it would have come out eventually anyway. Age cannot hide with men, only women lol

"Andy tried to kick Sorel while he was down for something that was beyond ridiculous, while claiming to be his friend." 

I agree 100% with the above statement from akat , but i still don't think it is cool for Imp to out Andy like that.

I'm not saying Sorel is innocent because the fact is I don't have any more information then you guys. I'm saying, just lay off the hating for a bit. Sorel has a totally clean record and I want to see more proof than him not playing on FTP for a few days...he has always been legit in the past in my experience. -Jeff

I think its quite obv zang broke the rules... If someone accused me of murder, I would not beat around the bush and say oh you will hear the truth on 20/20 I WOULD TELL EVERYONE I KNEW that it DID NOT occur

Clay, I wouldn't feel dumb even if (bigger) shit hits the fan. I am saying to wait till closure on matter to then attack or whatever, and defending a person who I know very well, not defending the MA, or whatever. Sigh, I need some chocolate milk... Godamit, MORE COW BELL!

Andy is doing something clearly illegal, while sorel has not been doing anything that was proven illegal.
