Yes you have a WHOLE MONTH, but you have almost the same magnitude of a tournament with both. MLG is just a compact tournament, as GSL is a 4-5 matches a day tournament.

You also get the team league, a better quality stream, and Tastosis! I understand your argument, though.

I've been watching MLG Streams for like 3 years now and this is their hardest fail to date.... I'm still gonna wait and see if things work out but the stream hasn't been working for me for about half and hour now and I'm severely disappointed.... I wouldn't be so hard on them though. This is probably the most live viewers they've ever had. Hopefully this is a learning experience.

Yeah because this doesn't happen every single MLG, i'm such a fool for paying thinking this season it would be different and sorted -.-

I doubt they got more viewers than tsl3, so they should just have prepared for 50k viewers?

I mean they want us to watch this or dont they?

The quality is indeed better, and they sure have the Casting Archon. Even if Day9 is great, others doesn't complete him as much.

And I didn't know you had the team league with the regular GSL...

You don't. GTSL is an extra $5 dollars. Of course, GTSL is awesome and its totally worth it.

Frop OP: "Sorry for the delays, everyone- it's the first Event of the year and we needed to be sure everything would be working perfectly so you wouldn't miss anything. Competition will begin at 6:30pm Central Time.
6:01

An great post? We definitely aren't missing anything...we're missing everything.
I sincerely hope VoD's are made available for free due to the ongoing live stream failure. (Don't worry too much though, as your ads are still working perfectly on the "stream")

Still, I have to fault them a little bit. You need to have some idea of your viewer numbers if you're trying to manage a site. Maybe they should rent out the venue a couple of days in advance and set up a bit earlier.
