Nowcom (Afreeca's parent company) has also received a copyright lawsuit from Blizzard. If I just go ahead and host the finals, the stream will be forced to shutdown.. thats about as close as it comes to evidence about the sc1 streams.. and as i read that and heard zergman say bw streamers wont even be able to stream the game anymore..i think I may have blown that situation out of proportion.. i apologize  | ||

Regarding the situation with the finals, I apologize for my lack of experience in handling this matter. I would like to thank CEO Mike Morhaime once again. T_T Teamliquid's brood war fans and afreeca viewers, thank you for the good advice and suggestions you gave me as I was going about trying to fix this issue. I will most likely be able to obtain a license for the 8th SSL and everything will run smooth from here on. Regarding the cancellation of the location and the cancellation of the guests that were to appear, I am taking care of the situation one by one. Details will be posted on my afreeca page T_T. Blizzard Korea has contacted us saying we have the OK to run the finals and Mike Morhaime himself cared enough to leave a tweet. It makes me believe there are still so many things we (Sonic and BW fans) can accomplish together. We are pioneering something so unprecedented, so I will learn from my mistakes (of being inexperience in this matter) and carry out the finals as smoothly and orderly as possible!!!!!!!!!!! ^^ It feels like a scene from a drama, my hands feel like they are shaking from happiness! again very rough translation.. edit: i also forgot to WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO *pours beer on pusan head* WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO :D I'm so glad we got through this. It's great that Sonic got this all sorted out. | ||

A lot of the remaining negativity is frankly unwarranted. | ||

i think it has changed because sonic is able to broadcast his league on afreeca again = resolved D: since sonic is also a bw streamer if it wasnt resolved he wouldnt be able to stream? | ||

Not necessarily. He purchased a license to stream the tournament right? Regular BW streamers don't have a license or anything like that? | ||

I think what JohnChoi is saying is that it was exaggeraton and I have to concur (according to my rough translation that quote reads: "Copyright notice has also arrived at Nowcom, so that if Finals take place there'll be forced closure" which I don't think refer to every stream). Honestly I see absolutely no ground for Blizzard to shut down individual streams; it is frankly only thing that could genuinely surprise me. | ||

I think the thing with regular streamers actually is they either dont have a sponsored tournament or arent hosting anything with a prize pool over 500$?? or maybe the copyright that nowcom got was mainly regarding sonic? i dunno i just know im watching a starcraft stream on afreeca right now and it is quite awesome! | ||
