About the chinese whisper, you're right.. ..but there are reports on the net and ppl can deduct what happened from putting a+b together. Wheter its right or wrong thats an entirely different question!
What do you think why Salm did it? Thats the more pressing issue !!
Peace
Acsik, what you hear on the net, especially places like SmackTalk and the like are at best, unreliable.
It is almost impossible to deduce anything of any integrity from what you generally see on the net.

As for why he did it ?
Well, since Glen Forster left Avalanche to join Dynasty and he being the master play-maker for the team, Jeremy Salm had assumed that role.
Jeremy Salm was now the man with the plans and as such, a lot of his team mates now feel that the pressure for his game plans to succeed became too much for him considering the results Avalanche have been achieving lately and more importantly in Jeremy's mind, since Glen left.
This was believed to be the key in understanding what motivated Salm.
I have known Jeremy for a few years now and whilst I fully condemn what he did and also fully agree with his punishment, I cannot reconcile the guy who did this with the guy I knew.
As well as the pressure to perform, I think he must have also been suffering from sort of psychological imbalance at the time, as only a nut would risk so much for so little gain.
Still, what do I know ?

I wouldnt be that careless to base assumptions on smacktalk thats for sure. I referred to reports present on warpig/forceofnature/this page. Wich is as correct as it gets on the internet....


So Salm couldn't take the pressure. Hmm sounds beliveable especially since this year is not exactly 'lanche's year. But still its shocking...

Acsik, far be it for me to malign the intergity of our own forum but it does at times play host to a few people who think they know something and in fact know f##k all, but to look at their posts, it would make you think they are written on the same stone as the commandments.
As for my comment, 'Still, what do I know', I was being ironic, yes, especially when you look at the initiator of the thread who wasn't even there.

Cheque'll do.
Hmmm, well in fact, I have seen about two threads since I left and my blood pressure has most certainly gone down because of my absence, which is all good !!
I can't honestly remember betting you 100 quid but I defer to your Alzheimers free brain on this occasion.
As for posting under fictitious names in the last few months ?
Nope, fraid not mate, ain't posted a damn thing till now.
The first sign of a vein poppin outa my neck, then I'm off again for another rest :)
I'll see how it goes !
Pete
PS, can I just owe you that 100 quid, sorta on account, I'm a bit skint at the moment m8, sorry !
