Also I've always thought that VODs were the future of rebroadcasts, so that doesn't make any sense, feels like we're devolving here. | ||

It's great to have a set event time on a rebroadcast because you either know when to tune in for the start to watch it all, or you can make an educated guess as to what kind of time a game you're interested in checking out might be aired. What is an issue is the rebroadcast event not being removed when the stream just starts looping over for a while after the initial broadcast ends, which leads to massive confusion for people tuning in at any old time after something has been shown multiple times already. Maybe rebroadcasts could be set as a special type of event with a required (nearest hour) run length based off their previous nights live cast. Then after that time has passed events are automatically removed from the tracker. It would ensure that after 1 run through events are actually removed from the big event broadcast list to avoid confusion etc#? | ||

I've lost count of how many times I've clicked an IPL link of a broadcast I've already seen. My interest in the "event" has waned due to the over-saturation and confusion. | ||

I'd rather that it doesn't appear to be honest, but don't mind it either way. | ||

I agree with this point, but I think that a lot of this falls on IPL. Maybe it's just me, but I feel like they put all of the matches into a hat and come out with a handful of random ones to play for the day. There should be some continuity; even in the re-broadcasts. | ||

Agree. IPL always seems to have this problem where I can't tell who's playing, going to play, or what stage of the tournament they're in | ||

I would personally think anything that runs weekly or less to not be a big event except for the finals (assuming that said finals was big to begin with). Things like an MLG restream being listed I'd be fine with, but something like a NESL/IPL/GSL restream of some average low round game is just excessive. | ||

I voted "I find them usefull" But i see a point in Chill's statement, maybe some more clarification in the description or title of the stream like (IPL rebroadcast week X) or something like that. | ||
