Lol. when I point out one of the invites is just a terrible little bmer I get this pm back

+ Show Spoiler +
Maybe he genuinely thinks that 12p is bad and felt like sharing that with you. I assume he called you a faggot because he wanted to pause, and you did not comply. Although he is not mannered I don't really think that anything serious happened here. The end of the game was kind of funny because he suicided into your max army which was perfectly positioned. I feel that by defeating him you showed him your build was ok; I don't see any reason to hold a personal hatred against him for that instance alone (especially to the level of trying to get my to remove him from my tournament). You seem to be a strong player and if you wish to apply to the SWS I would be glad to consider you as a participant.

That won't make sense to anyone who doesn't see the game in question. Provide a replay link or delete your post plz.
Honestly he just said faggot once and nothing else was bad. Just calm down about this guy.

Alright going live in just over 2 hours. Might start the stream early to check sound levels and shit with the chat (we tried to get a good setup last night; would like some feedback).

Note that I failed to obtain a functioning copy of Adobe Premier Pro; so the video production is delayed to the SWS3.

In regards to changes:
As promised:
List of changes to be made and lessons learned from the first tournament/casting experience.
+ Show Spoiler +

(YES)--Alternate system required displaying the stream such that no overlay accidents or name plat accidents occur
(YES)--2 Stream mods, and a mod for assistance in real time tournament administration/organization now recruited
(YES)--Streaming in high graphics, sorry no 1080p)--Stream quality tests: Can facilitate Ultra Graphics on 480p, or High Graphics on 720p (minimal response time lag)
( NO )--------------------------: Working on having a friend capable of 1080p Ultra log in to my xsplit for the tourney stream
(YES)--Microphones made us sound like we had sinus colds; going to use my drum mics from now on
(YES)--Check-in time for players will be adjusted to 30 minutes, because 15 minutes caused some stress
(YES)--No in-house barcraft with (as many of) my dumb drunk friends to cause problems before/during casting
(Photoshop YES; Premier Pro NO: This means videos will not be here until the SWS3!--Adobe Premier Pro and Photoshop have been installed for production purposes (videos/graphics/overlays)
(YES)--Xsplit overlays to facilitate twitch chat interaction and privatize subjectively administrative interaction
