I need new ideas for GSL coverage. I did the Nightly Round Up, just to try it, but it is a little to much work to do a play by play style article. Does anyone think it would be interesting to see a more opinionated style for each match instead of trying to tell everyone exactly what happened? This way I don't need to stay up until 2AM every night trying to do these write ups and I can look back over my opinions at the end of the week and do a Weekly Round Up instead of a Nightly. I would also be able to get the articles posted on the same night that the matches are aired, which will be nice.

I think I will also start doing some more coverage on a lot of the other tournaments and what not that are going on right now. I'll do as much as I can, which could be difficult, considering the sheer amount of on going tournaments for the next few months. This should be fun

Where do you publish your coverage?
edit: oh I see now I was confusez. I like what you did so far but maybe compiling it into a Ro32/Ro16 end of the week deal would be best. Then publish it in tournament or general forum and everyone will see it and appreciate

haha ok. And yes, I think that is a good idea. That would atleast give me some time to actually write it

Yeah it's the same feeling with writing match summaries after games when I live report. It's hard to keep up and you get swamped. Make sure not to overwork yourself either!

LRs are good at telling what happened.

You could just showcase matches of the week or something so it cuts down on the horrible games you have to talk about. Get screenshots of some telling moments in game, put them together with a nice wall of text and talk and then put it in SC2 General at the end of each week.

Yea, i think this this is an excellent idea. Having a weekly roundup of the best games or even every few days

Yeah and if you want you can do some type of special segment each week like..."Biggest Blunders" or "Innovator of the Week".
