Right now 2 seconds before i type this there were only 1 bw stream:
![[image loading]](http://i37.tinypic.com/2cgzy9i.jpg)
We need more BW streams. They are really fun to watch D: and can save your day if you want to relax lying in your bed and want to watch something. Cant sit by the computer whole day D: And if you, like me, who threw out the television, then a good old BW stream can be just what you need from time to time :D
Also during dinner time, just grab a plate of food and watch a good old BW stream ^_^ and have some epic moments that you can think of once you are retired. Gotta have those epic (broodwar) moments while you are young.
Yeah like, i also feel that i cant sit here and complain about others should do something and then dont do anything myself. So to easen it up a bit i made a video:
+ Show Spoiler +
But dont watch it yet. Safe it till the day where you want to watch a BW stream and have a plate with food ready, but behold, you then realise all the streams are SC2 streams T_T. Gotta have unwatched broodwar videos in the bank D:

ive seen stryker and ranged streaming bw a lot lately, 2 high ranked usa players. Props to them for evening out the stream ratio.
also i intend to start streaming after i upgrade my computer, when i get enough money (soon i hope..)
o yeah i also want to thank the guys who always stream proleague/msl/osl matches live. (roffles, mystlord, grobyc, and more who i forget atm, you guys are awesome, keep it up)

Yeah it's sad to see the BW streams are pretty much gone. I'm on the same boat with you, I'd grab a plate of food, or some tea and sit, relax, and enjoy a nice BW stream. SC2 is extremely boring, and I've actually just gone to youtube to watch some SSBM/SSBB videos. But I've been watching 24 recently O_O! JACK BAUER FUCKING MANLIEST FUCKER ALIVE!! (outside of StarCraft)
Anyway maybe I'll start streaming BW but I don't play it at all, so at first it'll be horrible to watch -_-.

First you should check if you have a good enough upload speed on your internet connection.
|

Speedtest.net
My upload speed is slow as shit -_-... so I can't have a decent quality stream.
|
Go to http://www.speedtest.net to see your upload speed. I don't know what's required to stream but post it here, I'm sure some people will.
edit: lol'd

ok so according to that website i have 3.57mb download, 0.61mb upload, and 31ms ping. Are these good or bad? :o

I'd think those are GREAT considering I get like 1/2 of that and 50ms ping. Dx lol.

I tried to set up a stream, but it wasn't working right on livestream.com so I gave up.
Also, I have 256kb/s upload speed, not sure if that's enough or not. Might try to work it out again if my upload speed is enough ^^
|
um i just checked the "net index by ookla" option, what the fuck those are all so high?? I hope its not referring to the same thing as i just tested, bcuz that would make me far below average T_T
edit: oh that 3 was a typo, my ping is 31 lol

For streaming mid - high quality, your connection is pretty poor. In the US, I think 3 down and .5 up is the lowest tier of internet you can get. But maybe it's fine because BW is much less graphically intensive.

i could stream but watching a loaf of bread grow mould is more fun than watching a D protoss fail on iccup right?

i have 3.0/.75 dl/ul and I can stream bw fine.
|
Yeah, I agree.. everyone is streaming fucking SC2 and it's boring as shit.
P.S
Why did you blur out that it's you vs MrSilent though?
EDIT:
P.P.S
I'd stream, but I get enormous lag in game once I start camtasia ... anyone know how to fix this? I didn't have this problem before, but now it's here.. and I don't know what to do.
|
No need to mention names. So rather ask why should i display the name of the loser in a public forum?
And i know that you can just anti swirl it back to see his name. Its not a secret.
|
I'll try and stream for you right now 
|
I've been streaming a bit, but by no means am I a real high level player. My max rank is C+ if you want to watch that :/. But yeah, Ranged has been streaming lately and he's really good. I'll try my best to stream often, but with such a busy summer, I can't guarantee much.
|
Epic game just now on dr.shrinker's stream 
Only now do I realize how spoiled we were a year ago, with so many top players streaming regularly.
|
When I get back to the US and I'm not too busy I'll definitely start streaming again
even If I am D+... ;;
|
Remember when nongmin and ret streamed? ;_;
|
I'd stream now, but I have to go paint  perhaps later in the day.

i'll start streaming whenever I ladder. Although I don't think my stream can have more than 50 viewers and im frustrated because I tried for like a week to get it verified.

Nongmin's stream was one of the best things that ever happened on TL.
;__;

I would also appreciate some bw streams, because watching sc2 is just boring. The sad thing is that about 20-30 people watch bw stream lately.
|
I've not been able to stream BW aymore sicne I changed computers, stupid windows 7 >< Stuck to streaming only Sc2

I'd come back from a longass day, be completely burned out, and do my usual bookmark checking routine, right. The second I saw nongminzerg in that little corner of my TL tab I'd be brought back to fuckin life. rofl I'd literally run to the kitchen/bathroom inbetween games so I wouldn't miss anything. was such a pleasure
|
Nongmin/ret/Testie1 wow... I remember spending whole days just watching them play. There were many more good streamers, but these 3 were epic.
|
WHen I stream there is max 10 viewers, thats why nobody streams, cuz nobody watches. :/
