Anyone wanting to know just how petty Riot can be you can read the following e-mail. Got tricked into holding off on the Deman / Joe Miller story after being responsible and asking for comment. The following communication ensued:

Hi all

Just spoken with Anna.

Richard grudgingly agreed to hold off until after IEM, but believes he has a head start and can technically post at any time.

With that in mind, we'd like to revert to the original plan of sharing the news tomorrow.

Anna and I are in alignment that ideally we'd like Joe and Leigh to post their own statements, then Riot/ESL will post statements of their own to support/give more details.

Joe/Leigh, could you please work up short statements today and share them with us?

Sorry for urgency, but we really don't want Richard Lewis breaking news we should be telling the community ourselves. We'll plan to post tomorrow, followed by Riot and ESL's statements, then it would be good to monitor queries and comments and answer together.

Any questions, just ping me."
