I'm watching it on the warpprism special page for it and it's fine. Was laggy for a bit but got ironed out after the opening of game 1 VT vs mYm. Seems like the past 2 series have some in-game voice problems. Like seemed like no mYm audio for the games vs VT.

EDIT: Also Best quality seems to be the least laggy quality to watch at.

these guys seem to be completely oblivious that the stream is completely unwatchable with the lag. how are they gonna "double and triple!" their viewership, what a joke!

Yeah, it was great before and now it's unbearable

I was really psyched about these, pretty unfortunate.

Ummm to you guys saying the casters are not paying attention to the chat and comments...they're using a delay server so no one can cheat. It's delayed by 5mins. So they only know about the comments 5mins after the problem first arises.

Ya. They know. The first casting duo (adibisi and wombat) before catspajamas and askjoshy mentioned the delay server. Also mentioned that Best quality is the best since any lower quality is done by encoding servers by Justin.TV. And basically the lag problem on lower than best quality is due to a problem with Justin.TV servers.

Also mentioned about the audio streams that basically they're running 3 different streams; for each team and for the casters. And it's not surprising it gets out of sync and have some technical difficulties because of that. Hope the VODs get good production to fix sync issues, etc.

EDIT: Seeing how the event is over a weekend they might not be able to fix all the problems but it'll provide a good guide to their 2nd season (which I really hope they will do). Perhaps in future seasons they'll try to do it prerecorded to help with technical issues. Still would be problematic I guess with having 3 streams to have the different audio channels. Overall I would say it's been alright. Some nice games. Interesting to bounce back and forth between team chat and casters where casters wondering wth a player is doing and the player saying he has no idea what he is doing.

LOL.

NOTICE: We understand the issues with the lag and agree its completely unbearable and unreasonable. We've been in contact with Justin.tv in order to resolve these issues and should have it figured out and fixed for tomorrows cast. Because of the use of the Delay server we were unable to troubleshoot the stream while the tournament was running. Rest assured we were very aware of the issues and were trying to handle it in a way that would be fair to the players and viewers. There are only 2 of us putting this tournament on with the help of our casters so please bear with us.

This is awesome. I wish there was more pro 2v2 stuff like this out there. And the ability of listening to team chat is so cool. Keep it up!

Just wanted to quote this for emphasis, Ben and Allan are two of the most dedicated guys I've seen organizing a tournament, and everyone knows streaming issues often kinda fall under the category of acts of god, and it gets even more complicated when they're doing something as ambitious as having casters + independent audio streams as well as admining the entire tournament.

Here's to the rest of the tournament, were some really awesome games today and I think they will only get better. Catz/Drewbie vs Protech/Power was an awesome series, Minigun/Destiny vs MYM was great too~.

I have no idea why there isn't a "Results" drop down bar.

I'm just a bit thrown off why you didn't feel it was relevant to have in the first place.

Anyways, Thank you.

We had the brackets on our website but I had planned on making a section for VODs and Results, but while putting the whole tournament together it slipped my mind
