What exactly is unprofessional about this? The fact that alcohol is involved? Or the fact that he is showing a bit of personality?
Dont be a negative nancy, its not very often that you see somebody who actually cares about their audience enough to be real with them.

sundance is -THE- man.
props.

It's not like Sundance was drunk for a business proposal to his sponsors. He was posting a message to his community, something I sincerely appreciate.
So thank you Sundance, keep bossing it up.
|
Sundance is the Dana White of video games, just instead of saying fuck every three words he's a total baller.
|
Hit me up Sundance. I'm drunk too. I'll learn to be a caster, just for you.

If he's gonna have the Russian casters, and force everyone from Russia watch em without the opportunity to watch real casters, I'm gonna sign up into the terrorist organisation and bomb the MLG.
surely I won't do it, but I'm gonna really hate MLG if they're gonna do that. srsly

Drunk posting like a boss

It's the fact that alcohol is involved. Instead of taking the opportunity to build up hype for the announcement, and to make the announcment in a way that would generate the most excitement possible, this benefitting e-sports and MLG. But mainly because he was drunk. It's not professional. It just isn't.

I'd love to have a drink with Sundance, and give him a toast for these future plans for MLG
|
Sundance is also super good people.
|
I think most people would prefer the down-to-earth honesty in Sundance's post than a PC announcement by a company. it makes him and the MLG team seem more personable. good on ya!
|
LOL if this is the worst he posts when drunk I'd say he can post drunk as much as he wants
|
YAA sundance u tha man! I'm also drunk while posting this... what is the coincidence? gl on mlg I hope it becomes really big in NA

At some point this might look unprofessional, but don't forget that it also can be a part of Black PR.

LOL MLG Adam(Senior Vice pres) is gonna be pissed at Sundance for leaking all that info drunk....

It's his thought process and plans that they have. It doesn't necessarily mean they'll go through with it.
It's a different form of "hype". We know part of the plan, we don't know when it will happen, or if it will happen to its entirety.
But by telling us this, he gives us something to look forward to.
Information is leaked all the time. For God sake, Blizzard's PRODUCT SLATE got leaked. Do you think that they'll still try to hype people up for the future? Of course.
Just because something is "leaked" doesn't mean that you can't hype up the community about it in the future.

Once again Sundance proves why he is incredibly awesome
|
It really is a breath of fresh air to have the top dogs of a company treat their fans on an equal level, unlike the way most do...
Really thrilled with MLG personally, can't wait for more
|
Fuck it - they should let the casters get a little tipsy for the casts ... That would be much fun. Well, maybe not Husky so much but Day9, Tasteless, Artosis would be hilarious. Husky is fine sober .
