WWE Champions General - Despite his claims, DSP is still spending thousands of dollars on the WWE Champions mobile game

[BT9494]

Fusing up a character means one of two things:

1) You are already have them on your roster but then pull a duplicate of that superstar at a higher rarity. Let's say I have the striker Undertaker at two star gold, and then pull a three star bronze poster of him in some loot boxes. By fusing him, I am able to have him at the higher rarity without having to use the different tokens that would normally be needed to upgrade him.

2) When you move a character from one star rarity to the next using the normal process (i.e. tokens) the star that results is hollow. For example, if I take the two star gold Undertaker from the previous example and use tokens to upgrade him, then the third star will br hollow. A character with hollow stars is a little bit less powerful than one with full stars.

If you obtain a duplicate poster that has more full stars than your current version, then you can fuse them and fill in the extra star or stars. Right now I have the zombie version of Steve Austin at four star gold, however only two of the stars are filled in. If I was to pull a three star bronze poster of him, I could then do a fuse which will keep him four star gold but fill in the third star.

Fuses can be handy during "talent up" events where you upgrade your roster for what are usually pretty good rewards.

It is actually very simple but I feel like I just wrote a novel.

 

[the khat quaffer]

it's kinda hard to tell exactly how much, some wwe champions youtubers have thousands of upgrade materials just from playing, and we know dsp plays more than these full time youtubers who cover the game

I think it's intentionally confusing so you're always chasing some kind of resource, coin or material

what I don't understand is the fuse up thing, can you explain @BT9494 I think it's for upgrading the specific star rank

there are $99 packs for coins, upgrade tokens (training points/TP), there are 6 different kinds of TP

then there are special upgrade items that come also in cash shop packs, which can be up to $99 for best value

Is there some reason you still have it in faux-Spanish

Edit: your downbotes just convince me harder that brazilian spanish is inferior

Dang this makes me happy, dood! Keep up the good work fellow autists! There’s even more smoke wafting from from the barrel of the gun after this discovery. I hope the trustee looks DSP right in the eye and says, “Gotcha!” (not to be confused with gacha).

Hiding money implies that he can get it back somehow. Since the account is non-transferable and he can't sell it, he's just spending money with zero chance of return on investment.

He'd get his money back and then some. By lowering his income through increased expenses, he's trying to qualify for Chapter 7, which is total forgiveness of all non-secure debt. That saves him literally hundreds of thousands of dollars. He makes way too much money to qualify for Chapter 7, so he's trying to fraudulently increase his expenses by spending thousands of dollars on gacha games. Since they are non-transferable, this means the bankruptcy trustee can't take his accounts from him. The money just "disappears" which is equivalent to hiding assets.

Obviously, that's illegal.

If what you say is true, then utilizing gacha games to hide money/assets has to create some weird precedent moving forward. I've scoured the internet and talked to a few friends of mine familiar with bankruptcy and we're all stumped as to how this'll be handled.

It only works in his case because he has a business that writes off these types of expenses (digital games).

Except it doesn't work cause he has never used this game for his business.

Right, but if he writes these off as expenses wouldn't he have to prove that spending money on gacha is necessary to turn a profit via his business? It's not like he streams this game or even does a YT review/overview.

 

[DZoomer]

I'm pretty sure that some autist has already sent an e-mail to the trustee about this.

I guess that if she asks Phil to show exactly what were his expenses, and he shows what he's spent in this gacha, he may end up way more fucked than he would be if he were just denied chapter 7. Since what he is trying to do (if any of this is true) is maliciously and intentionally fraud his bankruptcy.

Man, I can't wait for more. I'm having so much fun. I hope you guys are having it, too.

I don't see why it should be handled much differently than any other addiction. If a cokehead files bankruptcy and is actively snorting up the assets of the estate, they might put all the assets into receivership (or the trustee handles it somehow) to prevent the further squandering of the money. He may or may not be doing it spitefully to harm the creditors, but it shouldn't really matter. The impact is he's spending other people's money and they should have the tools at their disposal to stop him.

Yeah seems like his only options atm are to admit he's been literally dumping money into an incinerator in the hopes of getting virtual sweaty men or claim it's an addiction

 

[King DDT]

How much does it cost to level up a new wrestler purely through purchased coins?

Also thank god I play FGO shit's a crushing skinnerbox but its got nothing on the levels of whaling going on here.

This is why I've said that I could understand if he just came out and admitted to an addiction. I've been pretty tempted by some FGO banners to start dumping money to pull certain servants.

This kind of upgrade and rank up system seems pretty close to DC Legends.
I wonder if DSP happened to get involved with that game. He whaled out in Marvel: Future Fight, right? Any idea if Dave has got a hardon for DC characters, too? I might keep an eye out for him in that game.

 

[gaarashatan]

it always makes me giggle when i think that this mobile game has ruined phils life more than the detractors so called have. good job phil yet another thing that has brought you down by your own doing

 

[strandedcastaway]

I know Phil has the luck of the pigroach and we're all a little afraid he'll somehow write off the gacha games and weasel out with a Chapter 7 (or worse, that the fake expenses will just be believed for some reason), but I'm not sure he thought far enough ahead to plan that out. For example, he likely pays for the WWE mobile games through his PayPal account, yet in the original bankruptcy filing his PayPal account wasn't even listed (but the expenses were). If he was planning to use the mobile games as business expenses, why wouldn't that account have been on the original bankruptcy filing when the $5000-$9000 in expenses were? (yes, he added it on the revised filing). I really don't think he listed these games as expenses and it was some other fake expense instead, but we'll know soon enough if DSP survives nuclear war.

he can get away with fake expenses until someone looks at them

Unless the court and trustee just believe he has 5-9k in monthly business expenses with absolutely no proof, he is going to get hammered. His entire filing is one giant red flag. He is lucky as fuck, but these people want their money, and they will do what it takes to get it. His luck can only take him so far.

 

[King Daddy Telomerase]

I really hope we get any explanation on what the $9000 business expense in a month is. We can't even figure out a possible bullshit reason that Phil could concoct.

 

[King DDT]

I have doubts that we'll get any kind of reasoning for the expenses. It's clear that he's just trying cook his books, so to speak. Most likely he'll just spout complete nonsense about how everything he has is an expense.

The food he ate is an expense, because he would die if he didn't eat. Then the business suffers.
The gin he drinks is an expense because he needs the stress relief to be able to keep putting out positive content.

I wouldn't even put it past Phil to genuinely believe that everything he buys is an expense because it's necessary to him.

That positive vibe I had for most of 1929, I'm getting it back!
