This is way beyond Sonic's previous SSLs.

I wouldn't really say this. The step between SSL7 and SSL8 was much bigger than the step from SSL8 to SSL9.

I dunno having it all offline seems like the biggest thing Sonic has ever done!

SSL8 was done entirely offline too.

Nicely written. Your passion for the game has always come through in your writing. Brings a tear to my eye.

It's been fascinating watching Sonic's tournaments continually grow in professionalism and stature.

Does anybody actually think that not seeing supply is a good thing?


I 100% prefer to see supply/resource tab. It is difficult/impossible to calculate accurate resource/supply counts as a viewer/commentator, but at the same time, the information is often highly relevant. Also, it's there in the corner, if you want to reference it, but it's not overbearing.

I was watching Jin Air Starleague 2011, Set 5, English Subtitles, and the Korean commentators refer to the resource/supply count on a number of key occasions - which improved the quality of the commentary. Most of the time however, you can just focus on the game/commentary, but if you feel like checking the resource/supply tabs, then you have that option to look.

(Note: regarding the kids in the SSL 9 audience - one time (don't remember when), one of the kids was chewing gum and blowing a bubble, one of his friends hit him in the mouth and made him spit out his gum.)

Sonic's using the resolution expander so TL's resource overlay would be in the wrong place. There's a workaround I could explain to him I suppose, though.

I was actually thinling about exactly that, with the res hack, he'd probably need to get smb to build a new one from the ground up, but definitely if you are able to contact him, do it.

I think it's good and bad. It does increase the entry level for those watching since you have to know something about the game(supplies and such) to tell who's winning although commentators can dispel that. I think it can create some suspense as well if you don't know but I don't think it's a deal breaker if you do either lol.

I think that would apply if you were talking about production tabs, but for supply/resource thats already available from replays all I want is for them to add it to live.

Also it looks nice.

hmm well, as long as it doesn't distract from the gameplay(never was an issue in the vods that had it), then I think adding it is fine.

I can take it or leave it as far as the resource tracker goes, but my passion will definitely not be realized until they bring back the "hana, dul, set, [playername] fighting!" cheer. The lobby countdown feels really weird without it.

Or maybe it's because of technical difficulties
After all, longer the series goes, more convenient it is for some of us to be able to watch the stream.

Some TLers quit this website after BW went down and most of them haven't realized that the game took a revival. We are the vestige that remained strong to witness it.

I'm not reading much of that "discussion" so I'm curious- what exactly are the arguments of Sc2 elitists? I've never come across any.
Usually what I've seen was "Bw is a much better game/ Sc2 sucks!" vs "Nonono you're just oldfag elitists!".
