Don't exaggerate. 200k weren't watching SC2. This is one of my first posts in the LR thread. I usually fill my end of the bargain when it comes to LRs. Not this time and your memory sucks.

I still can't believe how stupid this post is lol

Don't think so? Go back and check yourself I was posting non-stop in those threads man and we did not have over 200k people watching SC2 only. Stop being a dingbat.

Huh, what's the expected ratio here?

If we go back to end of 2011 mlg days, with like 200k people watching over 8 hours there would be 400 pages from memory.

Not simultaneous viewers but I'm pretty sure there were more than 200k unique viewers on at different times

I don't know about you but I always talk in terms of concurrents not periods of time and it was not even close to that.

Mlg orlando had 180k+ with other games struggling to break 5k, before lol hit the mlg circuit. Sorry I was off by like 30k. Still ~10times higher then this.

I certainly don't recall that and I have several hundred posts in that thread. Are you using this as your guiding principle? I've written MLG off several times when they posted their numbers and oh what do you know I actually did do my research on it and posted in that thread too. The real number I found was over 160k.

Sure, in any event the main point was slightly over 160k is dramatically greater then 20k, and the viewership decline is amazing.

The decline isn't amazing when you considering the viewership for PL prior overseas man. I've made pointed comments at this several times before. Globally it's much better than what they were getting before in BW so you should accept it for what it is. In the end the viewership shouldn't be your concern. If anything it should be the organizers and at the end of the day when it comes to this event (no need to compare it to other SC2 events for several reasons) it should be viewed in a positive light. If there is one thing I hate it's this topic and how you guys are always acting disgruntled with the viewership when you should learn to enjoy what you have. As long as you enjoy it that's all that matters at the end of the day.

Funny, I always voted STX and Woongjin in ANY matchup. When they were playing each other I flipped a coin, and I always got it right!

honeslty though. they should stop putting 3 hour breaks between each game and have a bo9 with shorter breaks maybe a half time in the middle and gogogo better teamleague. the breaks in between kinda ruined this for me ㅜㅜ

Agreed, it was a great series but the long breaks killed a lot of the hype for me.

It's just the proleague way, you've got to get used to it. Stock up on drinks and snacks, have fun talking to people in the live report thread, and plan some other activities for in between matches.

Someone needs to arrange a Proleague vs GSTL tournament.

The best scenario is for them to just merge.

That's great. Stop posting.

Why should I? I called the guy out for over-exaggerating on concurrent viewers for an event I watched intently and did actual research on. lmao

Doesn't hurt being right fellah. Glad my boys Trap, Mini and Classic pulled it off. Next time Stars!

He actually said "over 8 hours". Completely fair to assume 200k different viewers tuned in over 8 hours.

anyway, is this really worth popping a vein over. You're making this a much bigger deal than it is and you started it all out by acting all mean n shit.
