Yeah totally. It's awesome. I really enjoy being able to pull up the statistics of it whenever viewers ask. It's a great tool for the admins/mods. Keep up the good work . | ||

Nonetheless nice everday experience those Playhem dailies. the links change quite often during the last 24h before the tournaments, so it's kinda hard to keep up with that... But you are welcome to change them on lp | ||

Neeb, you know me, you know I love Playhem, so please keep this in mind. I can't listen to Lyrlian. I feel like he often borders on unprofessional to the players. Yes, sometimes, people make mistakes when they play, but often he makes comments that don't critique but rather degrades the players. Instead of saying "I don't quite understand what he hopes to accomplish here" I just heard Lyrlian say, essentially, that this was a stupid and terrible decision on the part of a certain player, and does so in a matter-of-fact sort of way. He basically will say that he thought that someone was ok but because of this that or the other he is stupid. As I sit and listen he "critiqued" someone for not having vision of a pylon that was in a random position that he didn't know about, a pylon that you would have likely needed complete vision of the map to find. I guess what I'm getting at is it just feels like he expects perfection from people and derides people for decisions. You won't really find that except in the most extreme of circumstances from other casters. It just rubs me the wrong way. I could say a lot about what I love from the Playhem Dailys, and I think I will soon, but... I really needed to get that off of my chest. | ||

We actually have a stream thread for feedback if you want to copy/paste to there http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=283608 On December 20 2011 06:39 Presidenten wrote: Hello, anyone knows who this "MouzMarco" / "uGpSwip" guy who won yesterdays NA daily is? His Playhem profile says he is Platinum so maybe it is a smurf account for someone? I just know that he's a Korean player and he's very good lol | ||

I could say a lot about what I love from the Playhem Dailys, and I think I will soon, but... I really needed to get that off of my chest. Thanks for your feedback, it's a good point you're making, I know I can be very harsh on players who make bad desicions or bad calls in my eyes. I think I remember the specific case with the pylon on anti shipyard which was in a place very often used for proxy pylons and warp ins. That's why I called it "bad" pro or near pro players should be aware of the fact that it gets used as a place to proxy pylon's at. In general though you make a very good argument, especially when I am solo casting I can sometimes be a little too harsh on players. The specific broadcast you're now referring to was my first solo cast in ages because my co-caster didn't show, I was tired and sad to solocast and I let it out on the players too much.(also the entire tournament didnt see a game longer than 15 ingame minutes, guess it all added up). I would invite you to join me again tonight on the stream and I will show you what I normally cast like. I'll make sure not to let my personal mood afect the style of commentary anymore in the future, thanks for watching! (: | ||
