Apparently some people are dumb enough to STILL be asking for it, so let's make things clear:
Do NOT ask for re-streams, and do NOT post re-streams.
Do not come here and muddle the thread by bitching about PPV. |

Not pissed, since i think it's a good thing that people get to watch it. But I do feel a little scammed when MLG-Kyle comes into the TL thread and tells everyone that they can watch for free if they do private browsing/disable cookies. I hope there will be a statement from MLG afterwards, but all in all it's not a big deal for me. You can watch it for free without doing any of that. The streams are all up on Twitch as far as I can tell - no tricks required. You might not be mad, but MLG really needs to sort it out. It's a bit annoying. If almost the entire tournament is show for free because twitch/screwed up I feel a bit cheated. I am getting my money back, I don't give a fuck what they say. I want a refund or a free gold membership. This is pathetic. I pay to help support, and people are still able to watch for free, I am fucking pissed. Paid for my pass over a week ago. I don't get this... You got exactly what you payed for and you are somehow mad at MLG? Wut? Other people are getting exactly what I paid for without having to pay. Fucking rights i'm mad at MLG. And people steal cars. You don't go to the car dealership and go "HEY someone stole a car, I want my money back! It is BS that someone got a car for free, I payed for mine! I mean mine didn't get stolen, it is here exactly what I payed for. But someone somewhere got a free car! RAGE!!!!" I just don't see why you want to demand money back from MLG when they gave you exactly what you payed for. Because they are giving you the exact same thing without having to pay for it. I have every right to be pissed off. No some people found a way to exploit the system. MLG didn't 'give' them that. I highly doubt someone at MLG is going "YES THEY FOUND THE SECRET LOOPHOLE I LEFT FOR THEM!". Much more likely they are working to shut it down now. Do you also get mad at game developers because people pirate games that you payed for? Or movie producers because people BitTorrent movies? So you're saying I should be happy that I paid for something that I could have watched for free, or that I should not care?
He's not saying that, stop crying seriously. You payed because you wanted to see the games and you are watching the games right now. Stop acting like a little baby.

Is Dual Sight the first map for all of the loser brackets? Or are the zergs choosing it? It's such a tough map PvZ

Anyone else able to watch the streams for free directly from twitch?

There's no exploit, unless you consider opening the stream like any other an exploit. I'm not even using adblock.
... I think it is very obvious MLG didn't intend for everyone to be able to view it for free. It was obviously an oversight. With a quick search I can find most any software, music, or video product I want for free. It originally came from the developer, that doesn't mean that is how they wanted it to be offered.

I have no idea how Demuslim's still winning, I'd presume viOlet will beat him but he appears to have learnt both the Huk-ray and the patented gimmicks so who knows. I guess you're too butthurt because DeMusliM is outplaying his opponents? Yea probably.
Yes, I, who has repeatedly bemoaned the number of Terrans who've already fallen, am certainly butthurt that a Terran is winning.
I'm just very surprised at the way his opponents keep suffering catastrophic failures in deciding matches with him is all. NesTea did it yesterday in their game 3 and now Grubby does it today too.

i understand your point, but then please technically explain how this is exactly MLGs fault and not for example twitchs fault (paying and vieweing is twitch).

Wouldn't it be worth it for MLG to release their own video client for people that have paid - like something that GOMtv does?

Doesn't work for everyone. I've opened on twitch and MLG's website and I get the subscriber message on both.

The Twitch subscription interface is very poorly secured. The combination of a very popular browser and a very popular addon for said browser makes it that users bypass the paywall without any conscious efforts.
It's definitely not opened up for everyone. I just started Chrome on my computer (watching with Firefox & PPV pass) and went to the MLG site and I properly get the login message.

tbh you have every right to be pissed, MLG shouldn't let their customers feel bad for paying and allowing - even if inadvertently - people to watch it for free is doing this; also, it doesn't bode well for next time

Poll is fanboyism... Leenock going to win this handily I'm guessing.
|
Leaving the streams open for 10 or 15 minutes out of every hour would make a great marketing strategy. Better than a free match in the beginning. But if it cuts off in the middle of big match...
(For the record, I just tried making a new twitch account, and the streams were not free. One of them played for about 30 seconds before popping the login prompt)

Agreed, I just opened the stream thinking I would get an hour or so free, when ti then continued to be free the rest of the night I simply held it open, because why not?
