I can personally testify Troy is a man I would happily entrust to admin my tournaments. He has proven multiple times to be loyal and willing to contribute to the scene and has stepped in multiple times at the last minute.

Admittedly I have not dealt with Troy from a financial level which is what this conversation is primarily about and it seems there are valid concerns and I hope Troy takes the feedback and learns from it. The lad means well, not that it justifies not paying people, however I would not be so quick to put him in the "scammer" basket. I'd like to think I know Troy well enough to confidently say he would not pocket money for himself, he just may promise money he doesn't have which is a lesson he'll need to learn he cannot afford to do (no pun intended).
