Or is the world championship open to anyone? Yes, the World Championship were free. They made it free so people would hopefully donate to Japan (and to get more viewers who they would encourage to do so). Lack of Paypal is costing NASL so much paying viewers, lol... | ||

This isn't a huge obstacle as I am within a 2 hour driving distance from the studio and my wife is very supportive. 2) I work full time at DivX encoding video (www.divx.com) (I actually set the encodes to go to justin.tv so if the baseline quality is bad you can blame me) 3) I am a partner with youtube now. I do get a substantial amount from ad revenue but no where near enough to replace a full time salary. I hope to one day make enough to at least go part time at work (if such a situation would be amenable with my boss) It's somewhat difficult with my work situation as we just went through two major mergers and things still haven't settled out. I am hoping to sneak more days off to work with the NASL. Again thanks for all the support! Keep watching and providing feedback as the NASL team aims to improve with every cast! Yay! You got the Youtube partnership! Hope to see you with more NASL casts, you definitely got quite a few more youtube subscribers yesterday! | ||

Could someone clarify please? Is Diggity re-streaming the NASL or uploading VODS? Last night was so lag heavy on the stream that it was unbearable to watch. I was thinking of buying a VIP pass but if it still will lag I don't see much point to it. | ||

I was thinking of buying a VIP pass but if it still will lag I don't see much point to it. I'd say hold off for now on the VP pass. I have the VP pass with a 20mb internet connection and I was getting lag spikes. I would watch 1080p for a couple minutes fine, it would start lagging, then I would watch 720p for awhile until it would start lagging, then 480p until it would start lagging, then I went back to 1080p. Needless to say I ended up going to bed after the qxc match. I'll just watch the others on the 1080p VODs | ||

game inc / ensnare match 3 is a great example of what is wrong with protoss 60 food + 2 bases ahead? no problem.. anyone arguing that the problem was a late factory is just clueless. you simply cannot engage a protoss with those chokes (with or without air support). and dropship harassment is just a waste of units when protoss is camping.. | ||

Everyone, Please stop perpetuating this rumor as it is not true. The marine has very low DPS, even with Stim. DPS means damage per second and the marine only does about 10 even with stim. Thors do about 47 DPS so obviously it is Higher. Well what you probably mean is DPSPM Damage per Second Per Mineral and even then it isn't the highest because zerglings actually do more damage per mineral and benefit more from upgrades. This makes sense though as the cheaper a unit is, the weaker it is, so that dps drops faster per point of damage received. Well in large groups all the zerglings can't attack is what most people are thinking. What is really meant is "Marines have the highest Damage per Second Per Mineral when they can all fire but the units we are comparing to can't all attack." And this is all without looking at units with splash damage that can do insane numbers against those same clumped marines. I am not trying to say marines aren't great units, they are, but making broad incorrect generalizations or assumptions aren't going to help anyone in analyzing the game. This was more to nodule than zyglrox but both were using incorrect terminology. On April 14 2011 15:24 Diggity wrote: Thanks to everyone for the overwhelming positive reaction!

So happy to see you back, your YouTube videos from the Beta were the reason I started following SC. So glad to see you back, I hadn't realized you were reposting on youtube so I will be checking those back out. I got to NASL later last night so it was mid game when I turned it it on and was so excited when I recognized your voice casting. | ||

I realize it takes money to improve things, that's why I paid. I hope we'll see it gets better in the short run too though. | ||

It's just taldarim altar, the map is so good for 3 basing as protoss. If it wasn't a gsl map you'd probably see a lot more complaints about it. But even with incontrol using the map to his advantage there was still plenty of things ensnare could have done to keep his lead but he chose to keep pumping basic infantry for far too long. He played right into incontrol's hands and threw his lead away, 100% deserved to lose that. As for the bolded part, you must not have seen fenix vs kiwi yet. | ||
