What happened with Birdie server? How far did they manage to make the auto-matchmaking code? How would it work? It would be nice to put everything on github...

Why was it going to die from the get go? I haven't heard of this project, but a very basic matchmaking should be doable. Was it just poorly organized?

It is doable but there were barely any programmers willing to help out. AFAIK, there was almost nothing done for AMM because the hostbot was being worked on.

How are people feeling about Brood War these days? Happy with the finals? What would you change for the next tournament? What could be improved upon regarding korean/foriegn content and coverage?

I am feeling quite optimistic. It has been a period of complete stalemate. Now when I go to bed I always able to find an interesting stream to watch and my enthusiasm started growing so that I stopped even following SC2 for example

One big concern though, no new players on the horizon.

No one at staredit.net or valhallalegends.com that could help either?

New seasons suck. Most of my recent matches have been either 1 basing Protoss(hint: if you're on 1 base vs. my 3 or 4 you're not going to win) or people who are way better than me. None of them have taught me much. I need practice partners. :/

His stream is awesome.
There's no kpop or small chat.
Just intense focus.

I consider Larva and Mong new players that are doing extremely well. I think the scene will find a couple new players as well as rising B teamers in the next year.

Viewers on BW are not on twitch, meaning no bots (they are coming from Korean streaming platform)

His ZvT is very entertaining to watch and agree with other poster, he just plays the game. No sitting and doing other stuff for a long time so it's nice.
