Killer is pretty hot. Maybe if we all try really hard we can build up a reputation for him comparable to Bisu.

I would say more people are watching TLS live now than OSL/MSL back in the day. When I got into the scene (2008), livestream viewer numbers were around 400/500 (maybe less?) with many more people watching vods the day after or something like that. I guess it just comes down to hype
I'll post in the threads even if it gets really lonely

for a guy who made his bones in LR threads, not a single quote is taken from me...

but seriously, I see at least 200 people and even if we exclude the chinese people we would still have about 100 people watching the SSL during the casts, yet nobody posts in LR threads and nobody votes in the polls for recommended games.

It never really was fun doing the LR threads for SRT for that reason D:

I can't help the SRT/SSL stuff because I restream it later in the day Also people can't comment in the thread when they watch it with me because the results will be ruined for them. This is something I haven't found a solution for yet.

Just spam an entire page in every LR thread before your rebroadcast with "SPOILERS" so that people can jump to the last page and start their own little LR there.

I might as well post this here maybe more people will read it so I can get an answer. Whenever I watch SSL live on snipealot its in widescreen... I just can't watch BW widescreen, can't do it so I usually wait for the korean vods that are in 4:3 to pop up somewhere (if they come up at all).
So I guess my question would be is there any way to watch the stream in 4:3? Really difficult watching live because of that (btw, would feel really sad if everybody watches it in 4:3 and I'm the only one getting widescreen)
edit: It's not that bad its just weird, does Sonic broadcast in widescreen? And sorry for offtopic

Last time I've seen an SSL broadcast snipealot2 was up in 4:3 and snipealot3 in 16. An afreeca viewer can switch the ratio with 2 simple clicks so it doesn't matter too much there, sadly twitch doesn't have such option (afaik).

You have raised many good points of past LR's, but missed the most important one: the MSPaint art. Seriously, while the Proleague ready-made backgrounds were all fine and dandy and the occasional (and later often expected) banners by Hyde/Disciple were stunning, it was the quickly thrown-together basic threads that were best. And of course all the memes relating to teams/players just added to the awesome. Stuff like this, this, this or that just made everything more fun both for live participants and for people reading through the thread later (like me).

LR threads were that awesome mix of a great template, pregame fanboi thrashtalk, quality LR'ing a game (which is really hard, I tried it for some time but couldn't fucking type fast enough), reactions to what happened on screen and post-game strategical analysis. And of course the screenshots/gifs of whatever epic moments we witnessed, splashed with a dash of MSPaint for later enjoyment. This is hard to replicate when many people don't invest this much time/aren't involved with the game. Without a team/player to root for it's hard to get back to old habits of waking up in the middle of the night with your finger ready on the print-screen button and 3 mspaint windows open at a time xD.

As stratos said, for the past two weeks we have been doing dual broadcasts of sonic as there are no fpvs. snipealot2 has the normal 4:3 aspect you are looking for.

The thing is this: i don' t really care how many people would watch BW. I would watch it even if there was a single person in the chat and a person streaming. Broodwar is like modern day-Chess.

Oh, that would explain a lot. Thank you <3

I don't know how to make the threads, don't know if I'd want to. However, I can join in more @ the LRT, only thing is I am normally posting a shit-ton in the chat @ live room so seems a bit redundant to repeat myself in the LRT


will give it a shot
I don't need luck, luck is for noobs, good luck to you though

It also saddens me how few people make LR these days. I think we should aim to fix that as well with this initiative. So whenever you watch some BW event and notice that there is no LR thread, make one!

Especially events like these Sonic showmatches which are so high skilled and yet the information about them is so scarce

A major thing is updating the results. That's why I made gambit cup LR-ing super easy. Just put the wiki link to results and than anybody can update the wikipage with results. Doing live result updates otherwise can be considered burdensome for the OP.

That's actually an awesome idea. We should definitely have a Liquipedia page for these SOSPA event matches as well.

I've been thinking about it, but it's hard to put it together. There's a wide variety of event matches with varying prizes and a long list of players that you'll only see there. There's the always ongoing KotH tournament which could get its own page and be somewhat organized, but stuff like team matches or the minitours or showmatches and so on would be hard to document. Doesn't help that there's no documentation of earlier results apart from what can be found in Arvick's thread.

Would be awesome though, absolutely.

I always liked the LR threads but I'm tending to watch the games after the fact at the moment. Still, if I am watching it live I'll be sure to check in to the LR thread, and they're always fun to come back to later for extra trashtalk anyway

Might I add SSL8 via BisuDagger's and Snipealot's TwitchTV has been stupendous - if you haven't watched + Show Spoiler [Group E] +
