No, I don't think so. This thread is very relevant in it's own right, whereas the Channel Nein thread is (rightly) about what scumbags they are. It's easy to imagine casual users of the site not bothering to read a thread about being screwed over by Nein again, and thus missing this important news.
BTW, congrats to Storm for organising it, and f*ck you channel Nein for all the support you haven't given Storm in particular and League in general over the years.

Qute simply the best post I have read since being on here. Well done Storm for knowing we are going to get nothing and organising something.
Screw you 9 for nothing. Scum.

You could always get a tram from Crown, then another one that goes straight down to Waterfront City. Don't ask me the tram numbers as I have no idea, I just know they go down there.
