This is an AfreecaTV exclusive, though you can always follow the stream here on tl.net as well. I hope we get tons of folks tuning in to the stream - Now more than ever, it's so important that we show our love and support for AfreecaTV!

Awesome! I appreciate all the effort you put in to get this going - I remember from the last thread.
What finally worked to get Blizzard's attention to approve it, if you don't mind?

It was a pretty complex process! Had to get approvals from the players, from AfreecaTV, and from Blizzard too. I negotiated my butt off to ensure that everyone involved was happy with the method and structure of the stream. These companies all have different goals that don't always align, and it's SO IMPORTANT to find a solution that keeps all of them happy! It just took a little persistence and negotiating savvy.

OK  That's a pity.I can't visit AfreecaTV due to some net problem. Perhaps someone can help, I had a weird issue with Afreeca and the fix was something really odd, but I can’t for the life of me remember what it was.
The mobile app works pretty well at least, get my Flash fix from there

The fix on PC/laptop -> go to "View on Afreeca" -> click "Go to Blog" (streamer portrait) -> once you are on the streamer profile page, click on the stream thumbnail to get back to the stream page. It should now be working fine.
I think it refreshes previously cached page that might have broken the player. And to get around the Chinese firewall, anyone may use a high speed overseas VPN in close proximity to your city.

So cool. Thanks for the effort, that's really well done!
