I don't really like the whole doing SotG during MLG thing because either the show happens but is sort of a neutered version of the show (most likely due to a long day and time constraints), or it is canceled (once again, due to time constraints). I'm not complaining that it was canceled, and I understand why it was so short the last time it happened, both situations are understandable, but I personally don't feel like benefits anybody by doing it at MLG rather then on the regular Tuesday.

If it can't be done on Tuesday because the hosts need to prepare for MLG, or they are already traveling or whatever, then maybe it could possibly be done Monday? I think that would make it easier on the hosts as they wouldn't have to stay up and do SotG after a long day of playing and casting, and it would also be a bit better for the fans because the show will be unaffected by the time limitations that come with doing the show at MLG. So overall, I think it is best to keep MLG weekened and SotG separate. Of course if there is no other way to do it then I suppose a mini SotG that might be canceled is better then no SotG for the week =) lol.

As much as MLG thinks they do for the community. They do nothing special. They have ruined SoTG and GB(gamebattles). And their streams suck and refuse to offer better unless you pay, and even then the quality still sucks. IPL embarrassed MLG.

Last 2010 episode in December

Edit: Yep, Ep 24: http://blip.tv/file/get/ItmeJP-Starcraft2StateOfTheGameEP24104.mp3


A) The quality of games has been 10 times higher at MLG vs IPL. That's what happens when your group stages actually matter.

B) I don't give a crap about gamebattles or know anything about it but SOTG is fine. They NEVER have done an SOTG on the Tuesday before MLG, even before MLG sponsored them. They didn't have time to do one tonight and I'm sure they're all tired as hell.

C) The fact that so many people are QQing says how many people still love SOTG and are upset by it not being on. It's flattering for them, honestly.

What? Is this because of YOUR opinion? I thought the games at IPL were better, at least so far. Does that mean the quality of games at IPL were actually 10 times higher than MLG because I said so?
