That screenshot example is really really cool

great job tl, for providing a service that most people find useful on a weekly, if not daily basis, and exposing more people to the starcraft userbase. I can honestly say that this is the best/most useful thing that I've seen happen to the bw scene since iccup/lan latency.

Sometimes the live encoder actually fails to initate the connection, and people don't really see it when they start up their stream, so they might be playing unaware that the stream is down.. atleast it has happend to me twice.

I applaud the implementation of the livestream by TL, very innovative and fresh thinking! It almost feels like web 3.0, i think this is the beginning of great new stuff in the future.. Keep up the good work!

Why are some of the streams so much more clear than others resolution wise? Is it because of the settings or their computers?

I stumbled upon the live streams through TL's main page. I had never used a livestream before and didn't even know that there were services out there doing this. The way TL has done it is SO user friendly. I really enjoy watching Lz's stream and Shauni's stream. Jake is so funny to listen to the way he talks to himself and randomly sighs all the time. So awesome! :D

Yay, these user streams from livestream is quickly expanding so fast like Protoss FE!!! :D

And as there are so many livestreams now, all of us have options to go to these livestream live and online most of the time as we always see at least one of the live!!!!!! I think RaGe here really did revolutionized the life, hobby, and ways of TL by having people suddenly coming here one day, seeing RaGe's livestream, then copy it to their one which is the case for me and many of us today. Just like how the concept of Protoss FE forge cannons were invented by this one player and then everyone started copying it! So mad props and thanks for RaGe with the guide and help to allow me to stream successfully and how I am today! ^_^

However, that being said, I do feel that because of this sheer amount of people in livestream, there will be the case where we will notice how some have lower quality than others (eg. no sound and etc) and people will be choosing favorites over other streams when multiple are formed (eg. Konadora's stream of 300 vs my stream of 50). I guess this is to be expected as the quality and the amount of effort will bring more audience but I am going to see that a lot of us (like 90% of us) won't ever reach even 50 unless for rare occasions (eg. me hosting proleague). But I like small audience and less spamming so I'm all good! ^_^ (even though some of us probably feel uneasy about this...)
