I'm debating on whether or not I should address all the complaints made about me or not, but I will just say this...

Please do not watch my stream for a couple of minutes, jump to conclusions about those couple of minutes that you think apply to how I stream overall, and publicly announce them on the forums. If you think there is a problem you are free to PM me about anything at anytime, but I really dont see the need to tarnish my reputation publicly.

Other than that, I will definitely take into consideration all of the constructive criticism!

Big T just a heads up you have to get used to this... Every caster gets shit thrown at them on the forums. They do it do Day 9 and you reacting is just the wrong idea. There are always trolls. Just ignore it or you can respond to it if its not just a troll post.
When I think of something else, something will go here

Regarding the casters: I'll talk to them regarding the issues you all have brought up.

Moxley: I'll have Trevor update the post with more information. What do you find hard about navigating the website? The layout or names of buttons? Any info will help so we can provide a better service for everyone.

If you want to see the brackets of a site from our homepage, www.nationalesl.com, go to "Play Now" and select the game you want (SC2 in this case). Then under "1on1", select the competition you want to view the bracket for. Then click on "Tournament Tree" to see the bracket.


It was rather hard for me to find the tournament brackets for the cup yesterday (eventually had to look at BigT's browser url to figure it out what it was exactly). Actually, I think it might not have even been up under the 1v1 section at the front page (only showed information about the first cup), though it looks like it's fixed today. It'd also be helpful to link to the main tournament info page/tournament tree page in the blog posts, as those are the most visible objects on the page. Sure, you can get to those pages by clicking the sign-up link, but it's not immediately obvious to people who aren't actually intending to sign up to check there.

that last match was probably the most frustrating experience ive had in sc2 & sc2 beta thus far.. how much money was spent on SC2? 100 million? clearly not much went towards bnet 2.0 servers

Just to be clear, I'm not blaming my loss to Fenix on lag, I was outplayed. Congratulations to him, he deserves to advance.

But nevertheless it was still infuriating when my mass mutalisks ran into thors (automatically clumping) and there was nothing I could do but watch.

it's bad enough that i might just give up on sc2 for now if i cannot figure out a way to get around this constant lag issue ive been having with bnet 2.0. i didn't have lag this bad in beta, but ever since release, at peak hours I get insane, stuttery lag (and often disconnect)

I've Verizon FIOS in southern california, 30 Mb/sec down and upload, but that does not seem to matter for my ping/connection to bnet


There is no contracted form for 'Have' in the positive form. The contracted form is used for 'have got'
Example: I have a red bicycle. OR I've got a red bicycle. NOT I've a red bicycle.

There's so many casters now and so many of them are so awful that to be considered good you just have to not be atrocious. Sometimes it feels like there's more people aspiring to be casters than there are players, and they don't seem to realize it is not easy being good and requires talent.

If I could give BigT advice it would be to turn down his mouse scroll speed and stop trying to select everything like it's the first 5 minutes of a game and you want to inflate your apm. Everyone does that sorta stuff when they watch replays on their own, but on a stream it's nauseating. He also tends to miss a lot of action because he's off selecting minerals where no one has a base and scrolling back and forth while on the minimap there's clearly a battle going on.

It seems to me like he really likes to lord over his channel, most times people are just watching it because there's no other channel, or it's something like the gosugamers official channel featuring some kid who forgot his ritalin, I don't see a reason to get a huge ego over that. I get a real douchebag vibe from listening to him. I am not trying to be an asshole, it's just the overall attitude he conveys on his stream. I don't know how much of it's an act or if that's just how he is, it's not very endearing at all though. I can't use Day 9 as an example, because he's like a casting paragon. I'll use HD and Husky, despite all their success, they aren't half as egomaniacal as BigT comes off


Thank god I'm not alone with my perception of the guy. For most of yesterday there were no other casters and I was "forced" to watch BigT.



Whats up with the useless flame?
He's a very good caster and you guys have obviously been watching a totally diffrent stream if that is what you think of BigT.
He has a very good sense of humor. I guess you guys must have picked up the "selfproclaimed micro master of battle.net" and jumped to the conclussion hes selfcentered.
Well, that is not the case.
Plus BigT's stream was NOT the only one to watch. There were several streams to watch. Even the players started to whine about the amount of streamers that wanted to obs them.
So none of you were "forced" to watch his stream.

BigT is doing his best, and he's doing it for free and for OUR sake.
If you do not like it, go watch another stream or start streaming yourself.
I bet with the mega knowledge about streaming you two seem to posses, it would be _THE_ best stream chan ever, right?

It was yesterday. I don't think they informed TL that the semis and finals were today. Can't think of any other reason why it was on there yesterday but not now.

I hope zurgs do better next week =\ Also, I prefer BigT to Gosugamers by far. First off he's funny, second of all, while his commentary isn't at the highest level it's still much better that what Gosugamers has to offer. The obs did not even know Artosis' third was dropped and killed for the LONGEST time.

Hey, I'm not going to lie, I honestly thought I would come back to check this thread right after the cast and see a couple of people flaming me but I was completely, 100% wrong. I have a tendency to give more attention to the haters than the ones complimenting me so I apologize and thank you very much for all of you sticking up for me.

I just want to say that I do actually try very, very hard to improve my stream and satisfy my viewers. If you guys noticed, I muted all my background noises today and tried to be less jerky with my mouse movements to make it a more enjoyable stream. Hope you guys noticed and appreciated it! If you guys have anymore suggestions please just let me know!

Again thanks to everyone who has my back, i really appreciate it!

***I will be hosting the next two qualifying cups AS WELL AS the group stages!! So make sure to tune in (if you want)!
