The first day of MLG was always kinda fucked for europeans but the second and third day were in the afternoon, but now we also have to pull an all nighter the second and the third day which is kinda fucked up.
Well they're showing more games, which isn't a bad thing. Just do what I do for GSL and sleep through the day (lol)..

That said, typically MLG immediately restreams their content once they're done broadcasting for the day. At the last event, you could even jump to a particular point in the restream, so you can just catch the matches you're interested in if you so desire. We're whining? Do we stream fucking tournaments at 1 am in the morning for you? NO WE DONT. Asshole. let's keep it civil. eu events are usually in a bearable timezone for na people, but korean events are much more accessible for europeans than people from north america. unfortunately there are some drawbacks to a global esport
If you're unemployed or have quit school yes. For eveyone else I'd rather put the alarm clock two hours earlier than call in sick.
What is the schedule for Saturday and Sunday like?

It's true but at least VOD are aviable almost istant! :-D
I hope the same will happen at MLG also if i'm planning to don't sleep at all this friday and then try to follow all the MLG live.
Fortunally monday i only work in the afternoom and not monday morming!

Starts at 20:00 CEST, 03:00 KST, 11-14 PDT/EDT. A bit better for Europeans.

The thing I hate the most is that it was wrong on the Team liquid calendar I was so hyped about this and then I suddenly found out that they changed the schedule x.X

Asshole. l but korean events are much more accessible for europeans than people from north america. because people normally rather skip work than sleep? right. i know a few "night people" but no one who doesn't work or study The point is that everyone does events on their own time, and complaining about NA events not rescheduling for Europe (which would fuck over much of Korea) doesn't make sense when both EU and Korean events don't reschedule for anyone either.
yes ofc i understand it and i'm not really complaining or hoping for rescheduling or anything, i was just (originally) pointing out the reason why there are comments about the schedule this time (it was "different" before). well it's enough alrdy from me

There's a problem for paying customers!
It appears to be impossible to watch both streams at the same time in high quality. I think this will be a major problem for a lot of people when they realize this tonight... Please fix this asap MLG, for you own sake!

You can also find the code underneath your "Membership" info on the MLG website for your profile.
Basically the code will enable HD Video viewing directly through the MLG site.

you don't get your code in an email I believe. The code you get in the email is a fake one as an example, so you know what to look for on your membership page.

MLG will no longer be making replays of Tournament matches available to the public. We realize that this has been a popular feature, but unfortunately replay packs contain data which can be used to DDOS the player- and the event. Because of the volume of replays we have to process during an event, we are unable to strip that information out of the files before publication.
We realize that a large number of matches are played offstream at Pro Circuit Competitions. After MLG Anaheim, we will be sending replay packs out to selected groups of casters, so that these never-before-seen matches can be commentated and then released for everyone to see.
^ This makes me extremely sad. Because of some idiots out there we can no longer enjoy the replays of the brilliant minds of Starcraft 2. Was actually looking forward to that nearly as much as the event itself TT.

Kinda sucks to read that they're not releasing replays of the games anymore.

Anybody know if the open brack has been generated yet and if so where I might find it?
|

the brackets are typically released right when play starts, so not for a while yet

yes, plus the silver membership will also cover raleigh (and maybe orlando? i don't know exactly when that is) for the same price as one of the old 1-event hq stream passes

Just tried it, no it's not possible, in multiple windows or tabs. I find this incredibly stupid given that I paid to watch games in HD and it's not letting me watch multiple streams this way...MLG always finds a way to fuck things up.

What do you guys do to obtain a membership if you don't have a credit card available?
