omfg choboPEon... I just played you this morning... your goddamn hellions roasted my drones so badly ....

But anyways, on topic. I like show, because like you said its pretty hard to keep up with all these tournaments going, especially for people who don't have all the time in the world to sit down at a computer and browse through them all. So it's really awesome knowing who's on top, who's winning, and who's losing.

Keep it up. It's like listening E-sports news lol.

This is some really high quality stuff for a video a day, and even if it wasn't made so fast it is still really nice. My only complaints so far are during your game of the days. They start off a little laggy, or maybe they stay laggy but I think a very simple obvious solution is to just lower your graphics so that doesn't happen. I don't so much mind the lag as much as it makes the nice pretty video look suddenly very unprofessional/bad. My other complaint is that you show waaay too much video for what you want to convey. For example you showed that drewbie won the game and his opponent conceded, and you waited for what felt like an entire minute of non-sped up time for his opponent to concede. I suggest either just using some nice time-warping to make it look less choppy or for you to come up with more lines to say during the video. I imagine that if you talked during a overly long clip that it might look better than when you stop talking and we watch in silence.

Thanks a ton for what you are doing, it looks fantastic and I hope you continue with this

ok just watched it and like the others i think it should be more fast paced especially the highlights (a second of dead air online is like a minute to all us fast paced internets people).

perhaps put on more shorter clip highlights of the games? make it like recaps similar to the espn sc.

also maybe you can get a co-caster? take turns doing highlights to mix it up a bit. also it can help you put on more content since you can only watch and analyze so many games.

keep it up.

Nice show. One suggestion is to make it easier to follow what you're talking about. Make more easily viewable grids and tables so we can see exactly the results of matches etc. Otherwise i like your somewhat smooth and harmonic voice and the concept is very nice.

I was Snuggles lol.

I just watched a few of those episodes, really quality stuff man. Again its a big help for people who don't have the time to sit down and catch up on the news by browsing through countless threads.

will definitely try to fix up game of the days to make it seem more like a highlight reel and contain less silence.

This is awesome, consider me subscribed. That drewbie vs. acidic game was fricken hilarious. Also, drewbie played pretty well for literally the worst player idra's ever seen.

Just watched episode four. Again, really good. A few critiques: You spend most of the cast showing different pictures, or altering them enough to stay interesting. From about 1:00-2:00 you kept mostly the same picture up while you talked about the status of the tournament. As a more visual person, it would have been nice to see something that flowed better with what you were talking about. The other thing is the SC Center replay timer block is really ugly =P. It's way larger than necessary and feels like it invades on the space a bit too much.

Pretty small nitpicks. I really enjoy watching these, keep it up!

SCCenter Episode 5, 8/11/2010

I really recommend you watch this in full-screen HD. It looks much, much prettier that way and you'll be able to easily read all of the informational insets.

I need to get better screencapture software :[

These daily, rapidfire updates are great. This was probably stated previously, but it would be nice if you could make your videos in 16 : 9 aspect ratio. I'm very impressed with how much the overall quality production has improved just after five episodes. Please keep them coming!

Just a bit of work with the audio relations is all I have to suggest right now (and a fix to that gaudy replay-cover graphic.) If you're going to have very distracting music like that at the start, lower it a notch more than usual -- actually, no matter what song it was, it could've been just a little more quiet. Same goes for the in-game sound: lower it a bit. I could hear your voice clearly, but the sounds were a bit annoying.

the music was a bit of a misstep today for various reason, mainly legal mumbojumbo. sorry about that. should have something less distracting tomorrow!

I did not find the music in the start annoying but it could be abit lower, same goes for ingame sound, even tho i can understand and hear all you say, it could be abit lower

I really enjoy these updates you do! Informative and it sums up whats going on in the SC world well.

A few things that I would suggest is about your "Game of the Day". I think it should be brief covering just the highlights. Right now you do show the exciting parts of the game but it feels too long and it should be bullet point comments. A 30-60sec coverage of the game would make things flow much better. Also, if the game is on youtube or some other video hosting site tell your viewers where they can see the whole game. It is the game of the day and many people will go check it out.

Once again, love the show and I will keep on watching.
