Yeah all, we're sorry about the video upload names, and in the future, if there's multiple games where the video names could spoiler for people, we'll figure out a good way to correct that.
You the man Alex. You guys are doing a great job and I'm sure I speak for all of us when I say that we appreciate how much you're listening to and responding to your viewers.

I actually think this is the most professionally organized foreigner league of all, I sure hope it gets even bigger. HD+PU commentaries give me a boner (seriously that might be my favourite casting duo next to tastosis from now on), the games all happen to be amazing, you guys read all feedback on tl,the video quality is amazing, the street fighter voice is hilarious (I'm kinda sure someone has already mentioned it in these 81 pages, but it's sooo friggin funny, I hope it's a joke, if it's not I still love it lol). I hope to see more participants in a tourney, including europeans, when the prizepool gets bigger, but even for now I can't be more happy with your production. A big thank you to all of you behind it

Thanks for the positive comments! The street fighter voice is a homage to both fighting games and the GSL.

Pretty much in the same boat with n00b3rt, I'd be pretty disappointed and sad if IGN didn't continue with this, whether it expands or not. Definitely been my favorite to watch thus far, excluding the GSL.

Dude, the only difference between you guys and GSL, is quality of the players. Yours is the best quality presentation of a game tournament that I have ever seen. I dont care what you charge, when you charge, I am buying it, and I am sure others will as well.
You got everything right, and I thank you for it. Hopefully a stronger field will be available for the next one, and then you own the world, baby.

Amazing news! This league is amazing, and I'm enjoying the matches and commentating. Please get Day(9) to cast some of them aswell, he's the only one missing!
Great job, and props for being so open about everything. <3

Just watched Idra vs Select and must say really impressed with production/quality of games etc. and Painuser was great commentating. HD on the other hand was useful for two things 1) Spouting incoherent/irrelevant nonsense 2) Repeating what painuser said then asking him if he agrees with him. Also, thanks for keeping it free.

is the idra vs kiwikaki finals tonight? or has it already been?

The only single thing that I feel this league is missing (aside from the star power player pool which I assume will come with the next season) is cohesion.
It just feels like I'm watching a bunch of casts on youtube. You don't get the same sense of cohesion that you do with a GSL live cast or even NASL recorded cast. And it leads to things like HD calling the Select vs. Kiwikaki match a semifinal game (when it was the LB finals). It just seems like a string of youtube casts put together sequentially.
You don't even need to have the two people together. Doing it the same way TSL does (by keeping the same two casters for a single day and then having them do each cast in order) is fine too. I don't mean I want to see them on screen or anything, I just want each day to feel like one coherant whole as oppose to a bunch of pieces mashed together.
Other than that everything is pretty much perfect.

I find the initial point of 'cohesion' lacking and then singling out HD odd, when I prefer HD and Painuser casting together on of the best of this tournament. Simply because of ..cohesiveness! They're both really close real life friends and you can feel that when they talk. Rather than some random 'pro' commentator and another.

Hey all, our servers are being pounded with unprecedented levels of traffic for us. We are working on getting more servers up to support the demand. Thanks for all of your support and understanding!
That's a good thing, though right? I mean, I imagine all the traffic isn't IPL streaming, but it certainly has to be a good portion of the reason for the unprecedented levels I would imagine.
Really hope that such a big company like IGN can see how hungry fans are for this stuff. Thanks a ton for a great production quality and awesome games. As well as thanks for being so responsive to your audience here.
I'm stoked for IPL Season 2!

I just want to congratulate you on an excellent first season: the production level and organisation were second to none. I hope you stick with SC2 and continue to host events as fantastic as this first season
|
Amazing tourny. Literally the only downside at all was a lack of major players, but the games were still solid, good casting and amazing production.
I am very excited about season 2.
|
Very well done guys. Both IGN and WP. Can't wait til the next season starts.
