Same drill as usual:
  • No caster bashing.
  • Excessive tournament bashing that detracts from game discussion will be met with moderator action. Criticism is welcome, whining is not.
  • In general do your best to stay on topic and discuss what we're all here for: the games.
Enjoy the games guys.

Yeah still wondering about that.. Tweet the world with a 'free entrance' action or something. They still got 25k viewers onstream, make it more enjoyable for the bigger audience?

From what we've seen, I find it hard to even say one hundred. Maybe they will release the numbers. They wouldn't be very flattering though.

I'd like to know this as well. Anyone have a friend who happens to be at the event? I suppose the likelihood isn't very high =(

Where are they?

And judging from that crowd pic they are seated way too close to the casters...


Might be Xeris VIP seats.

I doupt it since VIP people usually get a less "in the thick of it" seats and more "these are nice and give us plenty of space". Atleast all events I've been behind the scenes/attended to have them like that, dreamhack usually has them on the skiers-right side of things.

Guys dont judge the event by day 1.
Im pretty sure we will see 10 times as many people tomorrow - or at least i hope so.

Despite that, we are pretty lucky to have so awesome games i guess... reason to stay awake!^^
And <3 Demuslim! And <3 to Bitterdam, awesome job, best cast today!

Isn't Sage known as a damn good PvZer?

More like the best by far I've ever seen( vs curious or some other prime zerg on tal'darim).
Orgasmic game. You're talking about the 3-way Phoenix zealot attack reminiscent of the Bisu Build? I think it was in a GSTL game and he wrecked that zerg into qqland

It's like a Comedy Club. It's better to give away free tickets to play to an empty crowd. At least you'd be able to satisfy the sponsors, hopefully sell some concessions/merchandise, etc.

I didn't even know the NASL finals were this weekend.... I live so close to the venue lol, but glad I didn't go.

It's finals week next week for most people int he UC system as well, so that might be a reason a lot of college students aren't going.

As an ex roadie stage guy I can honestly say it took way more people to setup that stage than are actually enjoying it as an audience

People complaining about the audience numbers, are you forgetting day 1 of IPL and DreamHack winter, im pretty sure there are more people at this NASL event then those two events on day 1.

Okay, seriously, it's like exam week for the US. Seeing as how demographics for eSports fans usually turn out (aka college-aged guys), it's not at all surprising to see that there just aren't that many people there.

I expected at least 100.. That's kind of sad for such a large event/prize money pool/hype/tournament.
