EPTAnd the MLG-Player works pretty decent now, at least for me (that wasn't always the case). So I don't mind the VODs on MLGs website. As long as you don't suck up to anything MLG does and aren't afraid to critizice things, it is all good.

I'm using quotes here, because the controls disappear when I go to full screen, so if I ever want to scroll through the video or even pause, I need to switch back to embedded mode. What's more, the tooltip that indicates time when you hover the scroll bar actually works, so I can know that if I click right now with my invisible cursor on the invisible scroll bar, I will go to minute 10:22... I think that's the end of SotG watching for me, until it is available on a reliable broadcasting platform.  | ||

Despite MVP being in a team with almost no Terrans and ForGG being on a team with Flash, he STILL got picked and played a shitload more games than MVP throughout 2010. Even then during this slump he never even dropped below 50% for the year and still showed some dominate TvZ. Ignoring even his Starleague winning days; hes a whole level above him easily. People should be excited about him cause his playstyle fits the game well, he's got superior mechanics, and strategically he actually had some flair. Meanwhile MVP was simply a bog-standard Terran; he played a few solid games near the end against T/P (but never even really tested against Z at all, only 9 games even played ever). Compared to a guy getting close to 300 games played, been on 2 teams and got an MSL gold. People seem to think he slumped before he quit BW, but infact it was during 2009, then he switched to KT and was doing much better overall. I'm not even a big fan as i like the team he left, but damn this guy is geniunely someone to be excited about making an impact. Now what, because he's a bit late or something there was a negative attitude towards him on the show? Don't get it considering the long hype of inferior players switching beforehand. I'd probably put money on him winning a GSL or even 2 within the next 6 months. | ||

Pulling that quote out of context creates a hilarious image for me. | ||

I do not see the playback controls either. Once the ad has run its course, the video area remains black, and nothing more happens. If I refresh the page, the same thing happens. However, if I refresh a second time, then there is no ad and the video "works".

I think that's the end of SotG watching for me, until it is available on a reliable broadcasting platform. I have exactly the same problem. Also had that problem while watching the MLG invitational vods. I have givven up on those. But it seems if you don't change the quality of the video and refresh it a bunch of times, sometimes if you are lucky you get the video. When I tried to watch part 5 all audio on the mlg.tv site died, but that was fixed by closing the mlg tab and reopening one. Would be a pretty good VOD system if it wasn't for all the bugs. (and if somehow a MLG member reads this: what kind of irritates me is that the player doesn't remember video quality setting when going to the next video in a series, would be a good improvement to make) It is very frustrating, and for next episodes I'll be switching back to MP3 (if possible). | ||

As long as I can see everyone I don't really care how it is set up. I do actually rather see his screen then the static images he had before. But everyone have different preference I guess. | ||

Whenever he's on things get out of hand. | ||

Day9 was talking more about game theory and how strategies emerge and evolve over time and IdrA was talking about the weaknesses of Zerg (scouting, cost inefficiency, so on). Basically Day talking about the general and IdrA asking for specifics. | ||
