About the subscriber option, I think just a donation option would be better. Subscription suggests regular content which might not always be possible with the amount of tournaments and the different timezones they're in.

Use your imaginations ![]() Welp, JP has just announced an announcement. I feel like the show is already back up! ;-) Looking forward to another Sundance appearance. He killed all the other shows just to have everyone watch this ;-) | ||

Also, why is Sundance forcing you to do all the editing/encoding/uploading of the show? So by making the show available to more viewers they will lose viewers? -_-;; Can't wait for next episode! :D | ||

Rebroadcasting makes more sense. making it 6-7 pm EST would allow US people to get home from work to watch it while still letting euros who stay up late to like 12pm watch it. 5 am is kinda silly | ||

Because of my own schedule as well as available media - I listen primarily to mp3's. When those are unavailable, sometimes I listen to VOD launched in background (which limits and delays when I catch up on given episode). I've never tuned in live, and I somewhat doubt I will. In the unlikely event I would - it'd be at hours rather not apparently good for EU (00-03AM GMT+1). Also, it'll weaken the punch of EU trolling jokes. TL:DR - does the EU viewership want to watch live at all/ will the amount that wants to tune in live from GMT be bigger than those who will switch to mp3/VOD from EST/PST. IMHO watching live is good only when it's the way it _has_ to be done that way (player streams, tournaments (spoilers!) etc. SotG doesn't really have form to make this form appealing for the consumer. | ||

That's not to say that it won't inconvenience some people to move the show time, but the vast majority of potential and current viewers will either benefit or be generally unaffected by the time change. | ||
