If asked to rate the different parts of the stream, I'd give: The 2v1 against Incontrol by two bronze a 6. The 1v1 with the two diamondish players a 3 The 2v1 against Incontrol by two diamondish players (listening to the stream...) a .001 The last 1v1 between the two bronzeish players a 6. and finally, the beginning best of 5 absolutely a 10 - was fuckin awesome. All in all great! Please stick to the horribad players and make sure they aren't listening to the stream! | ||

I'd like it to go on record that Matt told me to not mass queens. I was going to do it. I'd also like to thank iNcontroL for his time and making the event a success. | ||

I'm sure the OP will be updated with links to it when it happens. If not the penny-arcade forums thread on it will have info. | ||

We pulled this off with 2 weeks of planning, and made significant money for Child's Play. Thanks again to the TL community, and everyone who donated, snarked, or just watched. I whope that everyone had fun in support of a great charity. VODs will be up. I don't know if I'm watching them, sometimes its better not knowing what happened. Again, thanks. | ||

Silver is JUST out of your reach. :-P its been a saga on PA... just trying to get me out... i've played wayyy too many ladder games when i shouldnt be (after 1 am, kindof drunk, etc.) and every time i pull pretty far ahead in recent w/l ratio, i'll go on a 8-10 game loss streak. i've kindof stayed off the ladders for a while, just to get my head cleared and the kinks worked out. still working on it. but again, thanks for everyone tuning in and contributing. i hope that you were well entertained. | ||

Some constructive criticism though: -Don't be inviting random people from chat. They will lie about their rank, listen to the stream, and do/say dumb things on purpose (all of which we saw). Prepare plenty of people beforehand if possible. Just my 2 cents. -Bronzies are by far the best. Stick to 'em! The 2 diamonds vs. incontrol was ultra lame, not even close to a fair fight. The bronze bo5 was the highlight of the night though and I could barely breathe the whole time. Incontrol, you are hilarious, WTB like 5 of these in a row please! All in all, good job by everyone, the success of the event in $ raised alone should be incentive to do more I reckon. Props! | ||

All in all, good job by everyone, the success of the event in $ raised alone should be incentive to do more I reckon. Props! There has been talk of making this a regular type event. We've learned a lot in the planning process, especially that 2 weeks is incredibly straining on everyone involved. We mapped out the first three matches, and kindof opened it up at the end, just to keep the donations rolling in. I would have hated to cut it after the planned matches, or even iNc nuking me 2v1, because i think that we got more donations by airing it longer. Incontrol was a great host and commentator and the event wouldn't have gotten the attention without his participation. He was a true professional all the way, and really should be looked to cast major events. surprisingly, outside of GSL, this event had more money in it than anything else in NA. we're over $3000 raised and we kindof expect the VODs will raise that total some more. and i didn't set up the diamonds vs. inControl. someone else called that tune. | ||

Probably doubled donations by keeping it on, I agree! Don't get me wrong, not hatin', I realize it was pretty impromptu and all the positive response was unexpected (but great!). I'm just excited for the prospect of the next one being even better. and i didn't set up the diamonds vs. inControl. someone else called that tune. Oh, I wasn't aware, not a big deal. Nobody likes seeing their favorite players get crushed in an unfair fight though Thanks again mate, and good job! There's gonna be a lotta happy kids out there. | ||

Once the game had started though I think playing it out was a better option than just saying "Oh wait we have two diamonds". As stopping and starting games has the potential to be harmful to an event. Also Joe and the rest of the guys who put effort in on this (not me) you guys are champions. | ||

We put this together haphazardly in only two weeks, but the next time we do something should be much better organized. | ||
