Why were HBOX and M2K the only two (of the main six) players to show up for MLG?

Don't get me started about that tournament. After flying to LA last minute ($770) to spectate melee, I was told I could not spectate melee with a normal spectator pass, and that I must purchase a $250 VIP pass. I had just worked 60+ days in a row so the amount of money didn't cripple me, but it surely pissed me off. THEN, on day 2 I am told that the VIP pass does not allow me to spectate melee!! The VIP pass only gave you seating for the projector area (close to zero melee played here) during finals. Of course they weren't having my complaints. The guy I bought the pass from said there is nothing he could do, after admitting he was wrong and even apologizing. This was literally theft with a smile. I cannot STAND MLG. If it wasn't for a buddy of mine hooking it up with a player's pass he found ($60 pass), I would have been down over $1000 and not even allowed to spectate, lol.I just assumed it was because MLG has kind of a bad rep with the Smash community after the disaster that was Anaheim 2014.

He said the reason that he didn't go was because it was his son's birthday this past weekend.Mango = buster
