Judging from this thread I don't seem to be the only one lacking orientation. But respect for putting out that much original content, thats quite the feat. | ||

In my opinion, however, it has gone overboard. The four times I decided to tune into the IPL over the last 8 days, 3 times it has been the same segment, with dignitas.tan v tsl.symbol, and the nine dolphins shenanigans. For one, it becomes very confusing as to what's actually going on (in real time) and what's relevant. For another, it makes me not want to tune in because it might just be the same thing over again. Please don't misunderstand my post; I love the fact that there are rebroadcasts. I only ask they are broadcasted in a more, organized manner, if you will. Or in a way that the common TL member doesn't have to spend time wondering what's actually going on on stream. | ||

Don't get me wrong, I love the fact that you give people who don't have a chance to watch it live to watch a rerun. In my opinion, however, it has gone overboard.

the OP is not updated with players, time and results... everytime IPL is running something I have no idea how to follow it and their website is just too messy for my taste.. that's my only criticism. they should do something about it to gain viewers who otherwise give up being tired trying to figure out what's going on (like me  ) | ||

If "EU" were the only broadcasts that were rebroadcasts, it would be easy to figure things out, but that's unfortunately not how it is. Obviously, as soon as I click on the link, I can see if the "Rebroadcast" overlay is on the video. But the fact that I have to click on it and wait for the video to start and then find out...it's just messy, and deters me. This, plus the fact that the OP of this thread lacks so much crucial information. | ||

1. Bracket (ie. Who to watch) 2. Schedule (ie. When to watch) These are the two most important topics to clearly outline in the OP imo. Alot of other information often is a barrier to people becoming invested in your tourney. The schedule shouldn't be written out in a paragraph form. Think of something like TV guide which any simpleton can understand, such as: Original Airing Semi-finals match: Sheth vs Hero, followed by QXC vs Sleep US times - September 4th - Sunday 8pm EST / 5pm PST European times - September 5th - Monday 2am CEST Rebroadcast Semi-finals match: Sheth vs Hero, followed by QXC vs Sleep US times - September 5th - Monday 12:30pm EST / Monday 9:30am PST European times - September 5th - Monday 6:30pm CEST A link at the top to simple calender, listing each day's events would be much simpler. The bracket you guys put together is clever, but it's just not as simple as people are used to imo. I imagine the idea was to fit the bracket into the limited space of a monitor's resolution, but a resizeable, moveable bracket is just better. Something you can drag and scroll, and expand and contract in size. You guys do a better job than MLG in this regard, but the best example of an easy to comprehend bracket is done on Liquipedia. It's so clean and does alot in a very small space, that I showed it to my older (40 to 60 y.o.), business friends (who have zero experience in gaming), and they were flabbergasted by why a business (I showed them MLG's brackets) that looking to gain viewership would make it tougher to follow their broadcast. One other concept that I think is important is connecting information between the two. For example, if I click a match on a bracket, a sidebar or unintrusive popup showing the broadcasting schedule of that match would allow people to immediately know when to show up to watch. That's just my 2 cents as an outsider. I'm not as familiar with the gaming business, but I love SC2 and this current match (semifinals) is the first I've been able to catch live. I'm not looking to read an entire OP for each tourney. You have a limited time of people's attention to convey all your information, before people's brains will turn off. Make it immediately clear when to watch and who to watch. Also, I believe I'm watching a live broadcast. If so, why do the brackets spoil everything? | ||
