It was really great compared to last event but still had room for improvement.

Super awesome. Obviously not perfect with the lag but that's not MLG's fault. Also would have been better w/o extended series.

Ofcause room for improvement. Like no adds when switching stream quality.

The warpprism guys made a BRILLIANT stream page setup. MLG guys should look at that.

Prior to Columbus, MLG was one of my least favorite events. The past few days completely changed my mind - with all the new changes it's absolutely amazing. Can't wait for the next tournament!

Disappointed because of lag on stream. Missed many games because lag made them unwatchable >< Just waiting for the vods now, but that's not as fun.
Great people talk about ideas. Average people talk about things. Small people talk about other people.

super awesome hits the nail on the head. very very entertaining weekend
Inputting special characters into chat should no longer cause the game to crash.

Sure there are a few thing MLG can improve upon but the difference from last MLG to this one was HHHUUUGGGEEE. Next time, get a third set of casters and do 3 streams. Needs to be coverage of the open bracket, and better coverage on Championship Sunday.

Also, get rid of extended series. There gots to be a way to give the winner of a previous match some advantage without giving them a huge 2-0 lead in following matchups. having to win 4/5 is not realistic.

And there were some small lag issues and to many commercials at some points, but, on the whole, it was AWESOME!

I wish there was an option in between 'Super awesome' and 'Not bad'.

The only thing I didn't enjoy about MLG Columbus was having to watch/listen to that horrendous Bing commercial approximately 200 times. Honestly, I haven't been able to get the song out of my head. I am prepared to sue Microsoft if this becomes a lingering condition. "Yoehyoehyoooo, weee can't be defeated!" ahhhhhhhhhhh! Who is this lame band? Why are they all in robes? Why didn't they let those nice people in the elevator? Oh crap, I'm losing it

Super awesome. Very annoying with the continual stream jumping issues on the Sunday, but a huge improvement over Dallas with a lot of high quality games

"Super awesome" for sure. No event is perfect, but MLG was incredible. Can't wait for Anaheim. ^^

Overall a realy good event, few thing to whine about tho.
Commercials on streams was very annoying, volume went up 300%, and there was a commercial everytime you switched stream or went from Low quality to high. And you couldent turn down or mute the volume of the commercials.
Some lag on streams, i have great internet but still it stopped to buffer quite often =(
HQ isnt HQ at all... Even with free HQ streams the quality is pretty bad compared to other streams =/

Overall the event was great tho! Shouldent complain realy... Well done MLG.

I just hope Idra doesn't ragequit out of the pro scene, because I really like watching his games...when he's on his game. >.>


But yeah, amazing event. This was my first MLG, and it's basically provided me with my favorite players. Woot woot!

The best sc2 tournament held so far. Without a doubt. TSL3 was great and really good fun to watch but this was on another level. I hope they don't screw it up from here forward.

It was a great event, but not perfect. Especially the extended series rule need some tweaking (well actually just remove it).

Not perfect, but very well run in general and a lot of great matchups. Seems like there should be some option between super awesome and not bad though, that's a pretty big leap
