The former Swedish professional Counter-Strike player Jonas "GoodFella" Virtanen (picture), who retired a while back, is now being threatened by his old organization SK-Gaming over a financial issue.
It became known through his girlfriends online blog, and just recently rakaka.se, that SK-Gaming is confronting GoodFella for a total of $200, which they claim he owes the organization after being overpaid. His girlfriend also writes that legal actions were mentioned if the player did not pay the money within 10 days.
This is an excerpt from the online blog written by GoodFella's girlfriend:
| "Another interesting thing I should mention is when Jonas was here he checked his email. Just a few days ago I think and SK are demanding he give them the 200.00 dollars back they overpaid him. He got threatened again that if he will not return the money within 10 days, Storm (the guy who wrote him) will have to speak to Alex (TheSlash) and they will have to file legal actions against Jonas. Like WTH? They are making THOUSANDS of dollars and they are going to take legal action for a mistake THEY MADE and for 200.00? SK even owes Jonas money for God’s sake. It should be really interesting to see how the outcome will be though. I just can’t believe SK is SO FUCKING CHEAP. What a joke." |
You can read the whole blog by clicking here, but we do ask you not to jump to conclusions before an official statement (if there will be one) from either party is released.
Remember; there are always two sides to a story.
*Update:
Bds from SK-Gaming has now stated to rakaka.se that the issue is blown out of proportion as GoodFella contacted him yesterday and told him that he had forgotten to give them the money, but that he would pay up. This is therefore no real issue that concerns SK-Gaming anymore.

Props to the author/writer of this article, always keeping out an eye for the other side of the story. Very rarely do I see writers do this, they either just go blatantly biased or forget to mention there is a 2nd side not noted yet.

#16 you do realize you have the discretion of visiting this site and choosing what you want to read (in terms of eSport news I like to call it). No one is forcing you to read this or about CGS but just because you don't like it, doesn't mean other people (including me) aren't interested.
