Well, I have some standards... I prefer not to spam the 5 pages, but rather to offer a good topic of discussion.
For example, last year format vs this year. This year is certainly better for the veiwers, but it doesn't feel right. Last year a pro didn't have +1 week of preparation for the Ro8.

I'm going to agree with this. I prefered last years format so Blizzcon feels like blizzcon. This just doesn't feel right

Imagine, if you favourite player will be kicked in Ro16. Next week it will be just a "separate event" with random players

it does seem a bit weird to have ro16 a week in advance, but this is about what you can do without separating the tournament from the rest of the blizzcon schedule (or doing last year's setup with side-stream/backstage)

I'll just check the results and watch the final event. I won't watch day 1 at all. It's impossible to avoid spoilers, sadly

i dislike that only 8 players make it to blizzcon... however as a viewer i do like the extra day of games. i do wish it was two days of ro16 so it doesn't run as late for eastern Europe. i also think it's actually really good that the ro8 winners get a week to prepare! imo it results in an opportunity to see well planned games and unique builds - something i feel is lacking in typical weekend events (and what i enjoy about GSL)!
i do wonder about the cost of having the players there for a week though (especially with half already eliminated).
