This is really unfortunate. I've been playing/following SC for as long as anyone and the one and only thing that always bothered me about SC1 was that replays weren't ever released. I understand not releasing the reps for events like TSL where the sponsor has a product that you guys are trying to sell in form of advertising, but this event kinda seemed like more of a community thing and not releasing reps seems pretty lame. Hope you guys reconsider. | ||

 This might be to poor knowladge of the game though. Considring I havnt got the beta (or even played it for that matter) I really lack the knowladge to make my own judgement when I watch! That being said I think its awsome that you guys do stuff like this for the comunity. | ||

Hope you guys reconsider. The thing with releasing replays is that you reveal to much of the players styles. Usually the players want to keep their specific style of doing things as secret as possible. Also, its a good thing for the competitiveness of the game not to reveal. All in all I think its good that they dont release the replays. | ||

I dont mind this at all. Watched the glhftv stream and it was great. No lag whatsoever and really good games. TLO vs InControl were my favourite games. Can I make a suggestion? Can you guys make a team game next time? 4 1v1s and then a team game(2v2) ?  i think it would be nice though if we "only" see 1v1 its amazing already Congrats to all players! | ||

Unless these players intend on playing within a tight circle of people who will never share replays, they will leak, and there is nothing wrong with that. The SC community needs to get over this replay-phobia. WC3 survived fine with replays always being released. | ||

Hope you guys reconsider. This isn't how we think about it. When we go to a sponsor and he goes "oh show me an example of how many vod views you had please". We need clean numbers - we do this now so that we can have big things like TSL later. It also results in 50 english commentators making vods and then we have to track them all down to figure out how many views they had etc. | ||

I feel like I'm one of the few who hate watching vods because they are 1x speed and the comentators miss a great deal of important things. Is there any type of system out there that would host reps and make you watch an advertisement before downloading them? Even if it was 1 advertisment per single rep it would be better than vods. | ||

About the replays; everyone complaining please just stop. When you are invited to someone's house you don't drink out of the milk carton. You may do that at home but that's your house so your rules. There is a question of etiquette here and I believe our benefactors to be more than gracious in what they have shared with us. And good magicians never tell or it's no longer magic for the rest of us. | ||
