At that moment, but not earlier, Geoff extended his hand, and Zenio didn't see it, so he continued his motion backwards to the booth. Sen waved back from it. Incontrol assumed he has been denied the handshake, and didn't attempt it second time, face to face. I think he should have repeated it. Zenio didn't look at his direction when Geoff moved his hand forward. Call me stupid, but that's all I see there, no bm. That's what I see too =) No point of bming inc, unless they have an history, but I don't think so. Anyway, it's hilarious, too bad I went to bed at the break. | ||

I think today's maps will have more interesting games, and decrease the chance of seeing another Ret vs. Puma, since I don't think that was fun for anyone to watch. | ||

I'm sorry guys, Yesterday I was in the dark about what has been going as much as you guys. I am not not at the event and the people I get my information and updates from were busy all day at the event trying to fix things and running the show. Right after the event finished I passed out because I did not get any sleep the night before so I did not get the chance to talk to anyone till this morning. Basically what happened yesterday is as follows: The night before the event started we were doing some testing and preparing the rightmost projector suffered catastrophic failure and was unusable. We immediately overnight a replacement that arrived first thing in this morning. Installation took extensive time and thus caused a hour delay to the premiere. Additionally, this last minute projector replacement meant we did not have an opportunity to extensively test the projection system. As it turns out, the venue projection fails to hook up to the stream output. As a last minute solution we placed the stream system on follow to the stream observer. There are feedbacks regarding this caused jerky camera motion, so we changed to a dedicated observer for rest of the cast. Throughout the day they also worked with some Justin.TV people(Gunrun and some others) to help optimize the stream quality and to fix the audio. As for stream and audio interviews, the projectors there were not cooperating very well so there had to be two separate streams, One for the In-house stream and one for the online one. The audio for the in-house stream got fixed and balanced but there is something going on between the upstream and jtv stream which is causing the issues. We think the problem is something about the FMLE not liking using the AAC codec for audio on the stream output which is causing the imbalance. The crew pulled a all nighter to try to fix and improve everything. Hopefully everything will be great today and I will try to keep you guys updated more~ -Ben source: http://www.reddit.com/r/starcraft/comments/ikxvc/nasl_nasl_why_havent_we_heard_from_you/ | ||

You have a set number of maps (11, for example, it has to be an odd number), and each player eliminates one until you have 3, 5 or 7 left, depending if it's Bo3, Bo5 or Bo7. The remaining maps would be the ones played. The loser of a game would pick the next game's map. The first map could be decided by a referee. | ||
