HQ Trivia is no more, and its former host blames 'incompetence, arrogance, short-sightedness & sociopathic delusion.'
The game-show app, which at its peak in early 2018 had more than 2 million daily users, officially shut down Friday. CNN Business obtained an email from CEO Rus Yusupov telling employees that “lead investors are no longer willing to fund the company, and so effective today, HQ will cease operations and move to dissolution.” Yusupov added that a banker had been hired to find new investors, and a sale had been proposed but fallen through.
HQ didn’t die of natural causes. It was poisoned with a lethal cocktail of incompetence, arrogance, short-sightedness & sociopathic delusion. Saddened to see it finally succumb; sadder still for the good & talented staff abruptly left in the lurch after being gaslit and lied to.
