It would be a great decision if they had a regame right after the first 2h pause. Letting the game finish and then put up a regame is a bad decision imo. | ||

Tell me what's your favorite part since you've enjoyed it so much? There was almost a 2 hour delay for the Idra series then more delays after that. I think in around 4 hours I watched 2 games this morning(Last night for NA people). | ||

They thought the lag had gone away, when it clearly had not. I agree though, they never should have unpaused after the ridiculous delay. | ||

Any increase in piracy of SC2 at this point, because of LAN, is irrelevant. People doing that were never going to buy the game anyway. Just because there's no evidence to support the assertion that copyright violation would not actually have a net negative effect on SC2 sales doesn't automatically mean that there were no gross effects on SC2 sales. In the absence of actual evidence I'm firmly of the belief that copyright violation is a net positive on revenue for a series over time but I'd have to say it's completely wrong to say that everyone that violated copyright instead of getting a legit copy would never have bought the game to begin with. | ||

Could also argue like its baseball, they start playing the first 2 innings, but then a rain delay, the baseball players go straight back out in the 2nd inning and continue the game. (atleast I think thats how it works lol) | ||

If anything, piracy would probably vicariously HELP the game by increasing exposure. Not that I'm advocating piracy (nor do I pirate myself), but I think that the way most developers think about piracy is in terms of a simple dichotomy (i.e. piracy vs. sales). A pretty good assessment of the situation IMO: http://www.escapistmagazine.com/videos/view/extra-credits/2653-Piracy | ||

No, they tried to continue playing but obviously the lag was still so high that it wasn't possible to properly finish the game. This was the right decision. | ||
