I don't know about you, but I'm not exactly happy about paying for pay-per-view content that consists of a solid hour of watching a blank title screen.

That can happen when you buy a pig in a sack. Become a better consumer and you wont be dissapointed.

I don't know what's more annoying about reading this thread; the whining or the whining about the whining (which I am contributing to now).

I can get if they're having stream problems so can't broadcast the RO64; that's pretty standard stuff for watching any LAN event but I'd hope updating the brackets, etc. so we actually have some idea of what's going on would be given some attention while the stream is down. We should probably be getting more info from MLG than from the players.

I can understand people saying "Ah damn I wish I had more time to watch this, or I wish it didn't get delayed this sucks"

I can't understand how people can be as rude to say "Fucking MLG idiots" "These guys suck" "Friggin' amateurish"

It's pretty disheartening to see such immaturity

I don't care about missing the round as long as I get a refund. It would be different if I could hear Day9's soothing voice, or as has been said, get updates from MLG.

Yeah....

We understand why people are mad but... do they really have to post 10x the same thing?
Or even post on TL about this at all?
Do we really?

If you don't get pissed off when there are stream delays, it means that you are a calm, cool-headed, rational individual.

But motbob, are you saying frothing at the mouth, spamming f5, and making raging posts on Teamliquid doesn't actually make the stream come up faster?

I refuse to believe this.

Why don't the test their stream well ahead of start time? I've never understood this in esports, everyone does everything last fucking minute. They just set shit up and expect it to work, its so fucking naive.

Did you forget about how it took at least a half hour for many people to be abe to watch the GSL stream?

There may have been problems, but atleast they had restreams you could watch. Even if my gomTV player didn't work I could still watch the matches. Not so much for MLG.

HAHAHA you're missing one match that's probably going to be really one-sided anyway and you're asking for a refund? How entitled can you get? Hahahahahahahaha

If you buy something you have every right to demand what you payed for?

I can understand them for having problems, but if they are going to have problems they need to update their EFFING feed and let people know WTF is going on.
