I had no idea this existed but apparently you can buy the SotG logo shirt right now on the MLG Online store and its on sale for $15. Only 95 of them left too?

Help me and State of the Game out and answer this poll.

Have to see benefits first, but interested. (153)

No not at all. (130)

19%

I'd buy it regardless of benefits. (26)

Interesting idea, but it is kind of hard to engage in the show much more, with chat and simply watching the show anytime even if we miss it live.

Its under MLG so no. In my opinion the subscription model works for supporting none main funded streams but loving you're asking the community first instead of just doing it

I would be more than happy to pay for this sort of thing, maybe a "pregame show" sort of situation only for subscribers, or something of that nature.

Dumb. The system should be for the independent streamers, so the fans can show their support. Not MLG who's makes six figure revenue.

Had horrid problems with Twitch and payment before so never dealing with them again no matter how much I'd love to subscribe to SOTG.

Would have a gold pass on MLG do anything for this subscription or would this be ON TOP of that?

May or may not be tied in -- definitely something I thought about though

This seems kinda silly, What with MLG being a large organization. But I'm pretty sure it'll happen though because I think MLG knows people love paying for little extras which separate them from the online masses. like hats in TF and WoW pets and shit like that.

They surely make more in revenue but their expenses must be huge and it wouldn't surprise me if they still weren't operating at a profit.

I wouldn't support a subscriber system as it has the backing of MLG anyway. Far more needy streamers and the like could use my (theoretical) money.

I think if a subscriber option became available viewers would become even more critical on the SOTG cast for having to miss/delay episodes. A strict schedule would have to be put in place.

Please, PLEASE don't add a subscriber feature to your content JP. Just because it works for Day9 doesn't mean it will work for you. You don't offer the same kind of content or service as someone who a subscriber sort of system works for.
