But for Halo at least, the broadcast streams (i.e., what is seen online) from Saturday/Sunday morning/early afternoon are *not* posted after the event. Ideally, everything that was streamed online plus the player POV videos would be made available. | ||

Will all of what was streamed be available post-tournament? Seems to vary by game, so I'm curious how you guys are approaching SC2 in this regard. Thanks! Sooo looking forward to this. It varies by game because our ability to record matches (aka replays) varies by title. it's hard enough getting high quality (aka HD ready) signal from each title (alot easier when you're just capturing it from your desktop, but try switching it live with motion graphics, keys, and audio)... sorry, rambling :D For SC2 in particular, we'll be making available (in roughly this order, with no promises on timeframe, post production can take a while): -VODs of every broadcast match -VODs of every match played (with commentary featuring HD, Husky, Day9 and JP, assuming they have time) -the Raw sc2replay files.

Do you know if the "Blizzard professional-only LAN-thing" that was mentioned in Q&A before with Blizzard making its first appearance anytime soon? I'd imagine it'd be at an MLG event if such a thing actually existed. There's no LAN mode to SC2 if that's what you're asking. That was a rumor. I think the QA you're referring to is a matchmaking GUI for tournament administration, which afaik, hasn't been released to anyone yet. Unlikely that would ever be public facing if we used it, so you'd probably never see it :D | ||

Another question: how exactly are y'all going to address the 'no LAN mode in SC2' issue? Will folks be authenticating to a Blizzard-blessed server in the venue, for example? | ||

We have to process hundreds of hours of video footage (and conversion) after each event. RE: no LAN mode. Yep. That's how it'll happen. Same way every event has to deal with it. | ||

4 commentators for 1 event seems too much, I don't want any commentators to hold back their emotions because they have to let the other guys talk. | ||

IIRC, it's going to be 2 casters at a time only, with D9/JP and HD/H alternating. | ||
