I also agree with you about the 'caster couch', it did seem when you were there that you looked kind of awkward in a way, and yes its quite probably due to your analytical knowledge. However i started watching you, and starcraft, in DHS, and i've seen you come a long way since then, your analysis has improved a hell of a lot, and for somebody only doing it part-time, it's impressive, and i honestly do not think many other people could do the same in this position. Hope you enjoy your holiday, with what you've been doing this past month, you deserve it, and hopefully see you in an MLG soon! | ||

As many others said the crowd was awesome and the vods does not do it justice, neither noise or count-wise. However I need to rage against that stupid "Hellooooo" game that was going on (The hello game was done a lot in the LAN areas, basically one guy shout HELLO and the rest are supposed to respond). Doing during a cast is IMO totally disrespectful and I felt so embarrassed as a swede. I do agree that there were a couple of production slip-ups. Microphones not turned on (or turned on when they were not supposed to), bad camera placement causing people to block the view, bad camera switches, lights not being turned on when on camera etc. The most annoying one from a spectators point of view though was when they forgot to turn off the audience flood-lights (that turned on during cheers) so you were trying to watch the screen with very bright lights in your eyes I think you did a splendid job introducing the players and saving the entire introduction from that so-called host. The fluent Swedish spoken was btw: "Oh really? I didn't prepare at all" yeah... we could tell.. I have no doubt that you would make an excellent host for any future dreamhack event. Awesome job pumping up the crowds | ||

Also, very well done, I was pleasantly surprised of how much you have improved as a caster lately and your camera work is just top notch. Theres usually small things with every casters camera that annoys me slightly like occasionally missing drops/skirmishes and expansions but this tournament your camera work was most certainly close to impeccable. General Dreamhack feedback: In addendum, I followed the tournament both on stream and the semis- and finals on site. When I got home and watched the VODs of the english stream it was disheartening to see how bad the crowd noise and atmosphere was captured. SVT did a much better job in that aspect. Also, from a stream viewers perspective, the visual interaction with the players could be improved upon, not being able to see them until the semis takes away a lot from the experience.

Great write-up anyway, 5/5 Keyword; analyst. | ||

However, I do have to give you some respect to man up and call it like it is, you had no place on that couch and your knowledge is nowhere near any other caster. I do think you bring some people into Sc2 tho so thats good. If you keep going down the humble road and change in that way who knows, you might jut win me over one day! | ||

You were an absolute trooper this weekend - From what I saw (And I saw most) you had by far the least breaks of all casters, always on cam.. Cannot imagine how had that is 14 hours a day, 3 days in a row :o 5/5 - Thanks for the writeup - Hope you keep on casting SC | ||

We did spend a lot of our breaks signing, which can be a problem. I love doing it but sometimes it's best to take the Day9 approach and do all signing at a designated session. | ||
