An enquiry has been launched by the National Bureau of Gaming and Gambling into numerous claims that the Corel Chocobo Chase, nicknamed the “Triple C”, has been staging numerous races fixed in the favour of longstanding customers and wealthy businessmen from abroad. The NBGG claims it has received “more than a dozen” complaints in the space of seven days, forcing the Bureau to begin investigations as per the National Sports Gambling Act. Speaking from the Bureau’s offices in Corel City, Director of Enquiries for the NBGG, Zach Yellman, stated that “no accusation can be taken lightly, and that the NBGG is obliged to investigate every query”.

The Triple C is renound for its "high speed" Chocobos, specially bred for racing.

Speaking earlier today from the Corel Chocobo Chase, proprietor Maximillian Dionysus refuted all allegations, explicitly stating that “the Triple C is in no way corrupt”. The businessman, who recently came third on this year’s “Wealthiest People in the Republic”, as featured in the Corel Observer, also commented that “extensive precautions are made on a daily basis to prevent cheating”.

The results of the enquiry will be made public as according to NBGG guidelines and policy.

The Modeo Dragoons, favourites for this year’s Tritoch Cup, have suffered a humiliating defeat at the International Ice Hockey League playoffs in Talus against the Talus Jets, the final score being 5 – 1 to the Jets. The Dragoons, who have remained undefeated in their last sixteen professional matches were sent away from the second round playoff with their tails between their legs.

The Dragoons’ coach, Caleb Esco, refused to comment following the match, supporting the rumours that emerged earlier in the year about his possible resignation, handing the position down to former team captain Ricky Denessey, who retired from the sport following an injury at the first Tritoch Cup five years ago. On Esco’s refusal to speak, current team captain Bax Gisalli dodged the question, citing Esco’s numerous achievements within the league and “bringing the Dragoons from the bottom right to the top”.
