It is only a "thing" because Columbus Nova is getting part or all of it's assets frozen due to some involvement (through some ownership ties) to a "Russian Oligarch" involved in meddling with the 2016 election.

How? To Daybreak, we are best an after-thought. The support is outsourced, so its not likely to make that any shittier.

It might be more accurate to say that SSG is the developer, but Daybreak is the majority shareholder.  That is completely unlike the relationship between a book author and their publishing house.

Where did I got that?  I took the insanely innovative and fairly lazy step of following the links given in this very thread.  Grats on beating me at lazy btw.  Keep following links.  Don't worry the articles and short and most have pictures even if they are lacking in good porn.  In one they quote Rob Ciccione, Severlin, supposed boss at SSG as stating that some Daybreak guy is his direct boss.

Now I might not be a corporate lawyer but I'm guessing that the Daybreak guy didn't contribute a bunch of bjs to SSG in order to get himself into the "direct boss" position.  My extensive and highly valid tv and movie knowledge of prison tells me that the bj giving are usually on the other side of that equation.

SSG wasn't formed and doesn't operate for free.  Ciccione could have mortgaged his house, and that would be amusing but unlikely.  I'm going to go way out on a limb and guess that "Executive producer at a wholly owned subsidiary" might be a nice paying job, but isn't a job that pays enough for you to be able to buy the company.  Smart men gamble with other prople's money after they convince them that soemthing is a money maker and/or a good place to launder some russian olivebark cash.

Also found that Daybreak is incredibly sketchy.  They claim that their entire 3+ year history oif claiming and repeating to be owned by some russian ollydark company was just "oopsy, a miscommunication" that they are fixing just now because they suddenly realized their error and wanted to escape the sanctions I mean correct the record.  And that the issues with the russian doileyclark company that owns them I mean that doesn't own them won't impact them at all.  And all is well, so very very well that you will get sick of the winning wellness, and then immediately did a bunch of layoffs.  Because that doesn't look suspicious at all.

Oh lookie here, I don't see Ciccilini listed as an officer, but I do see some daybreak guy listed as an officer:

You were on TV? Like, news crews come interview you all the time about overcrowding or something?

I own my company with two partners  But I'm not listed, nor are they.   I use a registered agent and a CPA listed.   3rd parties provide those services.  it is not at all uncommon.   Being listed there does not require any ownership or operational control.  It may, or it may not.   You need more information to say anything definitive.

When they freeze daybreak assets, we'll see what happens.

If DDO and LOTRO are revenue positive it will  be fine... ...hopefully... ....

Worst case scenario the Feds decide to liquidate the assets rather than just selling the shares off again.

Nice pulling a quote out of context in one conversation and applying it to something else.  I made that comment about needing more information specifically about the MA Organizational Database.   

In my prior post, I even identified that Suzie Ford reporting that Daybreak owns SSG was the most compelling information.   Because she wouldn't report it unless she had two independent sources that confirm it. 

But sure, take my quote out of context and then pretend I said something I didn't.  Typical Frank.

It's not at all out of context, and only a shill like you would attempt to claim that it is in your neverending quest to suck a bunch of SSG dick.

Ahem:  It feels like you are arguing just to do that "I have to win this internet argument.  Let me find a way to pick at this or stretch it to absurdity and then call it absurd." thing.   

Let me lay it out for you:

You claim that Daybreak guy might have simply provided legal services to SSG, and therefor might have no other connection to SSG such as being an officer of the company or a majority shareholder.
I point out that you don't typically refer to your cpa as "your direct boss," because that's just a guy you paid to perform a simple service for you.  You probably refer to you housecleaner as "your direct boss" though, so I can see your confusion.  But this is a way you, well not you but someone with the common sense not to call their cpa their direct boss, might refer to the guy who ponied up the cash to allow you to keep your job by buying out the parts of your former company which were about to be shuttered.
Your head explodes as you attempt to whitewash and bury this incredible "what he did for us"/"how I refer to him" inconsistency which makes your theory valueless under your usual pile of pro-ssg bullshit.

It's really that simple, just like your mind.
