whats wrong with playing kor vs eu on na server? you play with equal lag and bring some skill to the server haha + Show Spoiler +chill US guys i'm just joking... kinda
i think those predictions in op are horrible but well... and the schedule also seems kinda weird...

is anyone else dissapointed that totalbiscuit is one of the casters?
i honestly can't listen to the audio for any stream he's on because i can't stand his commentary. i know there are a lot of people who feel this way too so i wonder why he is always invited to events? does he really bring in so many viewers who wouldn't view otherwise to more than compensate the people he turns away from streams?
he use to get a lot of flak for good reason, his casting style is relativey niche and if you don't like it you find it downright oboxious. i'm afraid that the lack of flak recently has caused tournament oranizers to believe that he has a bigger followering than he really does and they don't realize how many viewers he turns off.

To be clear, will the first (European) broadcast be up at 12:00pm PST and not 12:00am PST as written in the OP? Because 12:00am [midnight] would then mean that the EST time would be 3:00am, not 3:00pm.

I've said it before but I feel like it's worth repeating myself: THIS DESERVES SO MUCH MORE ATTENTION!
Seriously. Wtf.

Grrr... so many top tournaments today. MSI Cup and Squid are both on wednesdays, this will be hard to decide what to watch.

Hi, was looking forward for today and wanted to make a LR thread but have surprisingly no time to watch and update. So that the work isn´t wasted, if anyone want to post one but didn´t have the time to create one, perhaps he wants to use this (just copy/past everything in the spoiler including the center brackets. The section headers look better in a normal post, it´s the spoiler backgroud that messes them up):

It is a very real issue, it's not just baseless "hating" in which case "haters gonna hate" might be relevant. If you'd rather act ignorant to it then so be it but don't post some stupid meme improperly then an irrelevant question.

Dude, your post is only here to hate on the guy. There isn't a single word of explanation of why you dislike him. You also affirm speaking in the name ot others "i know there are a lot of people who feel this way too" which is ridiculous.
You're just a hater, who posted a hate post.

You're just a hater, who posted a hate post. You might want to reread it then. Also, if you were around awhile ago which you clearly weren't, you would see that there were more people "hating" on TB than supporting him because of his casting style that caters to casual players who love to hear someone shout as loud as they can in a funny accent. Even if I was just a "hater" it is irrelevant, because it is a REAL issue and there is a lot of "haters". So please, take your nonsense to Reddit or something where you can spout "Haters gonna hate xD" all you want.

Some people may dislike him, but I've seen a lot of posts of people saying how they are warming up to him. He's getting more knowledge, and I do think there aren't very many people who share you sentiments. If you're letting a caster decide whether or not you watch the tournament, idk, it just feels pretty pathetic to me.
TB definitely attracts an audience, just look at his youtube following, ofcourse people like Day9 or Tastosis would get them a larger viewing, but TB does a good job.

Really need to sleep but there's no way i'm missing Boxer and Ret

I think your times are off under the European broadcast for LA/PST. It should read 12pm not am. 12am is midnight but I think you are looking for lunch hour. Although I guess it depends where you're from as some places use 12am as noon so it's probably fine as is.

Welcome to being a part of the vocal minority. Those who have access to more than just assumptions (ie. real facts and data) know more than you do about who tunes in and who does not. I would not keep getting invited to events if I could not bring in an audience. You really think I work some razzle-dazzle and fool organisers into thinking I bring in a larger audience than I really do? They have access to hard data to see what's going on, they don't need to make any assumptions. What a few vocal haters (which is what they are for the most part, they are not here to provide constructive feedback and more often than not have not watched a cast in so long that their complaints are entirely out of date and irrelevant) say on the forums has no bearing on tournament casting decisions. This is a business, business people don't view forum whining as particularly important, they work with actual figures and facts.
My following is quantifiably large. My subscriber base is now larger than Husky and although that is for my general gaming content rather than my SC2, I have more cross-game appeal than any other caster at present and can reach demographics no-one else actually can. I am also easy to work with, I do not charge ridiculous rates for my time and have a lot of event experience. There's also a reason why you've never heard a single bad word said about me by event organisers and sponsors, because I do the job well.
Blowing my own trumpet? Sure, why not, let's call it that, but I'm not concerned about you insulting me, more that you are insulting the intelligence of event organisers by claiming they determine who works their events entirely based on a few forum posts and are just ignorant and unaware of some grand army of TotalBiscuit haters.

MarineKing's re-rise to the top will be glorious.
He is the true heir to the Terran throne.
