Great little addition, however a few important points have been brought up. Even though we have the forums, having a place to chat about streams is vital for the small community feel that surrounds (foreign) BW. I think centralising the snipe2 chat could work, though at the same time you will have a bunch of different viewers talking in a channel for another different stream. Once that ease of access suffers, we might find less and less of the few new people we get passing through to actually talk, will be visiting at all. It just seems to become difficult when you aren't chatting in a window that is linked to that stream. Honestly, maybe I'm over thinking the chat and snipe2 chat won't get too congested.
So even though we would be doubling up on say, loveTV streams when a showmatch is on for example, it makes sense to me to have snipe2 featured and running for an easy place to gather. Also, unfortunately quite a lot of people (europe mainly from what I've seen?) are still unable to view afreeca lagfree, snipealot is still essential to those people.
I propose limiting the number of afreeca restreams on the sidebar to maybe the current most popular 4-5 (or up to 8 if each stream is >3-400 viewers for when it's BW primetime in SK) so that there is space for foreign streamers, possibly having snipe2 restored to featured (though something would need to be worked out to avoid streaming double ups), as well as having a link underneath the video (alongside view on afreeca/pop out video) directing users to snipe2 chat/IRC chat if you end up leaning that way.

agree with this i know said it before (sorry) but its better to have snipealot2 in a prime spot on the side-bar since it keeps the twitch sc/bw community alive its essential to have a place where foreign bw fans can easily come and watch/chat bout bw to keep the foreign community strong/together

I think if you install silverlight, you get HD options but I'm not sure if that gives you the ability to reduce the quality or just raise it.

The quality options are beside the rectangle player size box in the non-embed version. There is only a "Normal" option and a source quality option now. And you need to get silverlight and the afreeca player to play source quality. @@

O_O silverlight can do stuff, i had it install ages ago cause of a windows update and i was like wtf is this shit O_o probably useless, ignore for 2 years and now it does something :O

I'm sure they'll be keeping tabs on stats, so the best way to show them we're interested is to just watch.

If you don't know much about something, consider not posting uninformed opinion about it(especially when the truth is easily accessible).
"The truth" is missing lots of important details, like what "Total" includes. In any case, it looks like Total - Bisu + Terror frequently doesn't get much more than 5k combined. So LoveTV and all the other competitions, maybe, then all the pros, then maybe every other bw stream? I'm kinda failing to see how this doesn't turn into the 30-200 viewer count we're seeing on the sidebar right now. Where two players have 200 and everyone else is at around 50.
Hiya got around 600 yesterday while he was doing some kind of show match, which sounds about right. I would expect every time they do a show match they can get around 500, but I don't think that's reflective of their average throughout each day, which is what was originally being discussed.
I doubt very much it's easily accessible if you don't know about it lol.
