Despite four years having passed since TmarTn\u2019s role in the CS:GO Lotto website, many members of the game\u2019s community are still holding the discrepancies against the YouTuber. He and fellow YouTuber Tom \u2018Syndicate\u2019 Cassell promoted the website to their millions of followers, without disclosing the fact that they were behind it. Both men shared videos showing them winning big prizes through CS:GO Lotto, but it was then uncovered that Martin was the site\u2019s President, with Cassell listed as Vice-President. The fallout saw both YouTubers widely criticized for obfuscating their respective roles in the website. Questions were also raised over whether the website was promoting gambling to underage users. As proof that the issue is not completely dead and buried, Jake Lucky, self-described esports talk guy, posted a screenshot of TmarTn replying to a user on December 19. The user sarcastically thanked TmarTn for \u201cstealing\u201d his CS skins, to which Martin replied: \u201cGuess you shouldn\u2019t have wagered what you weren\u2019t willing to lose!\u201d The post garnered the attention of John \u2018BLU\u2019 Mullen, a caster who is perhaps best known for his work on Valorant and Rainbow Six Siege, but has also casted CS:GO. He condemned TmarTn\u2019s response, saying: \u201c\u2018Guess you shouldn\u2019t have gambled as a minor while I did nothing to restrict you from doing so on my rigged algorithm.\u2019 What a piece of shit.\u201d Martin responded, stating that while he made \u201cmistakes\u201d, the website was never rigged against its users. \u201cIt wasn\u2019t rigged. That was the point of my tweet. Criticize me all you want for not disclosing ownership, definitely a major mistake on my part. One I am deeply sorry for. Players had the right to know. But nothing was rigged, I\u2019m not gonna stand for that slander.\u201d It wasn&#8217;t rigged. That was the point of my tweet.

That\u2019s a massive mistake on my end and definitely something our players should have been aware of. The site wasn\u2019t rigged and no money was \u2018stolen\u2019. Do you have anything to back up your baseless claims?\u201d Caesars Kiddie Palace? What? I didn&#8217;t disclose that I was an owner.

Do you have anything to back up your baseless claims? \u2014 TmarTn (@TmarTn) December 20, 2020 A number of other critical Tweets followed from other Twitter users, many of whom are still angry about the YouTuber\u2019s role in the scandal. TmarTn still boasts a large subscriber base across multiple YouTube channels, but his involvement in CSGO Lotto and subsequent apology attempt have stained his career permanently.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>TmarTn responds to claims that his CSGO skins website was \u201crigged\u201d YT: TmarTn\/CSGO LottoPopular YouTuber Trevor \u2018TmarTn\u2019 Martin has hit back at claims that his infamous CS:GO sweepstake website \u2013 abandoned back in 2016 over transparency issues \u2013 was \u201crigged\u201d against its users.
