The stream went back up mid-sentence in game 2. It's as if the casters were unaware of the stream being down for ages. They were casting as if nothing had happened.

Think about this everyone.

You have three events taking place.SC2, Black Ops, and Halo Reach, you have open brackets for PC with hundreds of players playing non-stop, additionally you have connection on both consoles putting even more stress on the ISP. Now to top it all of you're streaming all of this data. Now they accounted for all of this, but what they didn't account for is 128 countries watching additionally and the sudden surge of players onto the stream and website causing it to fail.

You're all being insensitive to the facts, and YOU yourself are shaming e-sports. You've managed to completely discredit the top industry in gaming because you failed to account for internet stability. What MLG needs right now is your support not for you to sit around here and rage because the stream goes offline. Think about it everyone thousands of people connecting to a single source for 3 separate channels of content. Stop crying, and just go take a break check back routinely. Go watch a Broodwar stream or something else.

u act like mlg didnt know this beforehand. they know exactly what the strain will be, its there job to prepare for it and TEST IT.

u people acting like "aww shucks, cut them a break" are even worse. you shouldn't accept shit service like this, u have every right to rage and u should

You can't account for 100,000+ people instantly connecting to your stream. 128 countries additionally, streaming high quality. Have you ever streamed before? You know how much bandwidth that is? This is textbook overload. This is how hackers shut down websites, they send massive amounts of user connections causing server overload and failure. It's what happened here at MLG but it was the gamers this time that ended the website. You can't test your servers for something of this proportion

So let me get this straight.

They don't know it's going to happen ... => But it happened the last few times.
You can't stress test your servers ... => Yet hosting companies and other tournaments do so.
It isn't feasible ... => But GOM, other tournaments and some random eagle stream can do it.

They tested and everything passed. Day 1 came along and they didn't ACCOUNT for all the traffic. I never said it wasn't feasible.

The number of vieuwers does in now way put stress on the network at dallas. They should stream to another location. That other location handles all traffic to the 50k users. Just uploading the stream was causing them trouble yesterday and that just doesn't make much sense.

We're having an engagement. Nesting eagle has the defender's advantage. I don't think this attack will work.

No you can't run a better stream from home using justintv or ustream. Are you serious? YOU CAN'T SHARE BANDWIDTH OF SUCH A MASSIVE SCALE. Your stream would fail like it's failed several times for justintv and ustream when these tournaments take place too many people flood the channel and it lags and resets and it's just an awful experience. Lose AD revenue? What? They provide their own stream and are sponsored by many companies

At the end of the day its MLG who didnt test for these things beforehand. Its on them.
