I am glad there still are some critical tl'ers left. Especially number 3 is a very good one. If the owner always holds a speech at the end of the tournament, he should continue to do so. No exceptions allowed. | ||

For next season, it would be great to see their online presence get a little more informative and organized. Posting the prize pool earlier, for example. And how about a list of how much money is getting won by the participants on a weekly basis and/or through any special show-matches? It's weird to me how much many of these big tournaments rely entirely on liquipedia to share information about their events. Seems like you'd want to be your own face of your organization, drive traffic to your site, etc. As for the OP, I'm sure Hero and the others will be paid. NASL has been reliable, afaik. I don't think they pulled a big crowd in Long Beach, but it wasn't really an attendance-friendly event. Two days of 10+ hours of content is tough to sit through in a theater and much better to watch at home. Maybe they can come up with some new ideas for the finals event next season(s). | ||

I thought it was a poor attendance but, i also didn't care about seeing 10000s of fans in an audience :S i care about watching the stream and the players playing. I thought NASL S4 was good, had some great players in the last 8, and DeMuslim vs Violet games were amazing and i had alot of fun watching them. Also listening to Day9 Soe, Bitterdam cast and analyze the games. Also, NASL DOG, was so cute :D | ||

This is a witch-hunt of nothing. source? with solid sources, other than hearsay, i can update the post.. as i stated in the post itself.

In fact, several contributors attempted to get information on the prizepool before the tournament started, but failed. The numbers on Liquipedia are based on what has been mentioned on stream by casters as the tournament was going on. thanks for the feedback On December 10 2012 23:36 Shartugal wrote: A tough question to the OP could be: Do you wanna point out how much better of a place Canada is to host an event? Canada is a giant country. its a very specific place that i am referring to. its NASL's #1 city for online viewership. Toronto =/= Charlottetown or Whitehorse or Flin Flon | ||

Seasons 5 and 6 #1 apparently the venue was a lot smaller, I guess that's the only decent question you have. #4 I get you're from Canada but that's not a tough question, you just want them to come back to Toronto. Not such a great thread. | ||

Not such a great thread. it was already stated by a guy who edits the Season4 LIquipedia article that they got that information from what the casters stated during the broadcast despite their efforts to get the prize pool info directly from NASL before the event. if u watch the Hotbid//Slasher video, Slasher and Hotbid state only 110 people showed up. It was no where near a sell out which would've been about 850. so they went from 5000 in season 3 to ~110 in Season 4. Ouch, that is a big drop. Thanks for the solid sources of info on Season 5 and 6. This thread was born about 12 hours after that tweet so its not like they published in 10,000 places that Seasons 5 and 6 were going to happen. And , its only a single tweet. But, its better than nothin! Obviously, if they are hosting Seasons 5 and 6 then they are going to pay the prize money.

MLG has done tons of stuff here that I couldn't go see because they weren't having spectators. Whatup with that? Slasher and Hotbid cover that topic in their NASL S4 interview | ||
