I think there is something to be said in the defense of 1. continuity and 2. presentation in this case, which is something that has become an intrinsic aspect of both Have At You and Filthy BW Cup in my mind. While it is unfortunate that the tournament had to be postponed on such short notice, sometimes that's just the way things are in the real world full of germs, jobs, and other nuisances that keep one from Brood War's loving embrace. I think Schamtoo and Rapid provide great casting, you certainly cannot fully replace either of those two. What they do is just great, production value is great and the chemistry between them is just right. Then we have quite a bit of seasoned casters in this community. People like Catspaw, Bisudagger, Flashftw, herbmon, hell even myself+ Show Spoiler + non-exclusive list of course! That being said, i hope to always see Scham & Rapid, they are true entertainers! | ||

Of course! Never meant to take anything away from the casters that have been around for a while and provided us with a lot of great content. I should have added that in such short notice it would be difficult to put everything together without risking detracting from the presentation standards, even if we have people capable of it. It's possible that Filthy isn't as familiar with them, and given how dispersed we are around the world scheduling something last minute would be a pain either way. This makes me think we should have a "rent a caster" thread with casters stating their availability, putting up VODs of their work, etc. | ||

I work with Schamtoo, and I know Rapid from other StarCraft stuff, so they were obvious choices for me.

And yeah jealous you're right, we really should have a thread with 'community casters' so to speak. I can't think of a better term right now, i hope it's appropriate :> | ||

I'm gonna figure this out guys, lol. That said, if anyone knows people interested in helping out with running Admin it would be very helpful. Hey there FR. I've been a paid caster for AfreecaTV (and GomTV S4) for the past two+ years. I am open for communication and am always willing to help with anything I have the bandwidth for. Knowing the future of BW, I'm sure we will cross paths at some point or another, but I'll send you a PM with my info in case you ever need to message me.. | ||

So sad they stopped doing ASL, everybody who actually knows / plays BW preferred them over Tastosis. Much love to BisuDagger and FlashFTW ^^ And SchAmToo and Filthy too ofc. aww stop it you're making me blush <3 I'm sure BD and I will make some one night only reunification for some hilarious cast or something. | ||

Yes 1.18 has bugs, but it helps Blizzard and tournament hosts to run with the most current product of the game. In this instance, let's be supportive and if any games are lost due to bugs we will deal with it then. | ||
