otherwise the live cast was a success and I hope it's live from now on, i think it gets way more exposure and more fun for everyone
this was my first time tuning in. it was a great show though I can understand if people turned out from the first quarter or so was going on about the MLG stuff, though some of the questions were frank and kept things interesting. I laughed so hard at many different junctures in the cast and I hope they do more live casts like this

if you're in any tournament and face a single person you're supposed to beat that one person in ONE SERIES, and not two (best of 3, best of 5, best of 7)
since it is a double elimination bracket there's a chance you will meet two times, however it's the same SERIES (but now, since you're meeting again it's a best of 7 rather than best of 3, which makes a lot of sense)
to explain it bluntly, it's as if it's the same series and there is only a break between game 3 and game 4
if some one wins 2-1 in winners bracket then loses 1-2 in the losers bracket the record between the two players is 3-3, this is why extended series (but really it's just a single series) is definitely better than not having it. if extended series wasn't there, the person who loses 1-2 in the loser's bracket would be out, rather than having a final deciding match 7th game to truly see who is best, and i don't see how that would ever be fair in a tournament scenario, seeing as it is the same tournament, regardless of what incontrol rants like an ape about to make seem important they are NOT separate situations, it's 1 series between two people in the SAME TOURNAMENT, they are not playing a new tournament just because it is double elimination, proving TRULY who is best between the two
basically incontrol just shouts very loudly to make things he says seem important or logical, however they are none of these things
i think MLG lee and liquid tyler tried to say something like this but didn't present it as well as they could have
to sum it up: incontrol is a moron, extended series is very good for a double elimination tournament scenario
But you have missed out on the main concept of the tournament. It is not to as accurate as possible determine who has the upper hand between two players.
And also it doesnt matter if you play the same player at two occations at the tournament or two different players who has earned those possitions in the tournament.

Sick live show, I'll probably listen again when it's uploaded!  I remember stumbling upon Kennigit's first thread a while back and it was just as hilarious reading it a second time haha.
|
The preshow is cool with JP and grackra.
|
I wanna listen to this right now! How long before it's uploaded?
|
Of course the one week I don't lurk this thread they do their first live show. Guess I'll have to wait for the upload
|
There were 5 minute segments in tonight's cast where I actually could not breathe due to laughter. Literally amazing.
|
The preshow is uploaded already, it's nearly more interresting than the show itself imo :D You can find it 2-4 pages before this one.
|
I enjoyed listening to the show live, so it'd be cool if you guys decided to continue that format.
|
really disappointed that jp didn't upload recorded version tonight, i can't imagine it takes long? unless there is a lot of editing involved? oh wells, fucking work screwed me out of the first live cast

Editing : Yes takes quite a bit (and encoding). There was also a pre show which made the entire show longer which takes more time.
The preshow is here... http://www.mediafire.com/?n398mtq8pazvy23
I had a hard time finding it as well.
|
Damn Why didnt anybody asked Incontrol to upload Vids of Artosis kitten ??? Guys Im disappointed.
|

Shouldn't be a need for a mirror anymore. If there is, someone else can upload it because I'm going to sleep.
|
everytime i right click and save the file it just saves the page itself i dont see how the files actually saves from the website, if someone would love to explain how that works that would be awesome
