Not really that great of a game TBH. Extremely glorified by day9. What game would you call good if that wasn't? a back and forth macro game with ultralisks, infestors, banelings, sick nydus abusing mobility, fucking ridiculous macro from both players... (except for qxc not making enough production). It was the best game I've seen in the entire tournament.
that dosnt say much tho does it now? -_-

all the MLG defenders can perhaps explain why some random pirate stream is working, but the one on MLG's own website isn't?
Lol, yeah, lets all feel really sorry for MLG. Well you need to think about it first. This pirate stream is 1 source that connects it's bandwidth of 500 KBs or higher depending on the quality, and sends this to USTREAM, JustinTV or whatever source they are using to stream. This said source has multiple servers that connect, isolate, and stream said content to you the viewer. In MLG'S case they are streaming, and hosting the servers, and privatizing all of the actions they do. There website gets flooded they have to fix that as well as account for the thousands of users connecting to all 3 streams in high and low quality, they then have to share the stream with all the users playing games at the event and additionally stream as well. This is all being provided by an ISP in Dallas who most likely doesn't offer such an extensive data plan like European countries( why they stream in excellent quality) No one cares. MLG hyped a huge tournament that turned out to be an absolute train wreck. Sorry, but the only thing this MLG has done for me is made sure that I won't be buying any HQ packages from them. Seriously, "blablablablabla". You can't excuse this disaster, really, you just can't. Well once you you have a basic understanding of streaming, data overload, and the complexities of hosting an event then it makes perfect sense and is highly excusable. Yup, people who cmplain all the time should complain on Dallas
Complain to the town it self? Did MLG not get to decide where they were going to hold the event?

The AKAMAI stream is the official stream, it's just direct and not through octoshape. All MLG needs to do is embed the akamai stream to the MLG website and exclude the octoshape.
Apparently they're not hard up enough to drop octoshape just yet, amazing...
I have a feeling they are just recording this though (the VOD they mentioned) and going to play it back through octoshape/ads later. Pretty low, but I guess they gotta pay the bills somehow?

im still amazed at 120k viewers for the eagle

How did you find the way to stream a stream who doesn't work :O
|

So what you're telling me is they failed in their preparation for one of the largest US gaming tournaments?
It seems like you're just trying to make excuses for how they failed, when others have been able to succeed with similar limitations / better preparation.

That was a sick sick game.
Ultras ling/bling and infestors.
Almost as awesome as defiler, ultra-ling :D
|
Not gonna lie, I feel like QXC could have taken that game by 1. Having < 100 scvs and 2. actually popping up into that 7 o'clock expo to check it out when infestors and ultras kept streaming out of it. Especially after hearing a nydus pop.

If the akamai stream gets too popular, it will probably die too.
enjoy it while you can!

Akamai transparently mirrors content—sometimes all site content including HTML, CSS, and software downloads, and sometimes just media objects such as audio, graphics, animation, and video—from customer servers. Though the domain name (but not subdomain) is the same, the IP address points to an Akamai server rather than the customer's server. The Akamai server is automatically picked depending on the type of content and the user's network location.

Oh my gosh, thanks for the that link above! I WAS missing the stream.
Thanks again.

That was already Sheths 11th bo3 in this tournament. Before qxc he has taken out KawaiiRice and dde among others.
And he still has such a long way to go.
I am so rooting for this guy now.

Is it too early to start the drinking game?

Maybe in this thread we could have a live report of the games and not the eagles? :/
