Putting together a tourny of this quality IS a lot of pressure and hard work, and comparing it to "plugging a heater into a socket" is pretty disrespectful. When you think about the product these guys put out there for us, it is really astonishing. They deserve a big thank you, not snide comments. | ||

Setting a precedent of letting someone get away with leaking results is like shooting ourselves in the foot. To protect the TSL the precedent we set has to really discourage any future leaking. | ||

? I believe that comment was made about a player (Tarson) spoiling results before the cast? I don't see what it has to do with what happened. | ||

I know, I realize it was unintentional. I just think its ironic that the same people who were so gung-ho about not spoiling were the same ones who messed up. | ||

I guess I was still too mad about the whole situation to appreciate the humor :p | ||

I had run through all the videos with R1CH watching, we had soundchecked early, were ready in perfect time. Cheerful video is running, music is playing and I switch to the Probe intro to start the cast. Probe intro ends, I switch to the NonY vs Mondi screen and sound on stream for absolutely no reason at all is gone. I start getting mad, because the stream gods apparently hate us (or we really should have sacrificed GTR over a fire!). Restarting Wirecast (and thus restarting the stream) instantly fixes the sound problem. We decide not to use the Probe video again, because we think it's what made the sound crash (despite it working perfectly in earlier casts and during the test before today's cast as well). I thus remove the Probe video from the Wirecast video list. Since it was one of the first ones in my list everything else moves up one slot. The stream is restarted with the Nony vs Mondi screen on. I want to switch to the Cheerful video again, but everything has moved up one slot the bracket video is now in the slot the cheerful video was in before. Visual memory is a bitch, so I run it, instantly recognizing my mistake. I yell at R1CH to take the stream down instantly, but alas it's too late, the data has already been processed by the streaming server. Most people were still reconnecting at that time though, so only a minority caught a glimpse of it. The reason posts were deleted and Kennigit posted earlier in this thread was not to hide anything, but to avoid spoilers for the majority who had not yet reconnected. Users mentioning it in this thread over and over again while the cast was still going only made it worse (risk of spoiling to the mahority that didnt see it). I don't think anyone outside the people involved realize the fragility of our streaming environment, obs, casters & tech crew spread all over the world. Nor does anyone understand the pressure when stuff suddenly goes wrong for no good reason (I still don't understand why Wirecast decided to crash the sound after the Probe vid....) at all with thousands of people watching. If anyone is mad they got spoiled put yourself in my shoes, thanks. Ehh, no apology? We understand it's a lot of pressure and hard work but so is plugging a heater into a socket. I respect the lie though since it settled some people down. Prepare for the worst. what the fuck is wrong with you btw i probably said this before, but what a great series. i will really miss tsl2 :\ thank you nony/mondragon for both epic games. if this is the last ever major foreign sc tournament ever to happen, it will be truly be one to remember. :d | ||

you did an amazing job, the coverup was good enough for me to browse the thread and think "blah bunch of bitches" and not even reconsider the accuracy of the complaints. Thank you tsl for an amazing tournament. As much as I need to seperate myself from the last seven years, I had to stick around to see this tournamet end. Thank you for giving me something to take away with me. | ||
