Do you guys think its worth trying to stay up to watch it? I'd love to, but I hate the possibility that the stream would just crash or be unwatchable from lag. I'd be losing a lot of sleep for my next day, so I'd only do it if I knew it would be functional.

That's the same dilemma I'm having. What's worse is that, since I don't have a subscription, staying up to watch would be the only way to see the games without them being spoiled. And if the stream crashes at all, that would just be horrible.

I'll be very disappointed if the stream crashes.

Boxer showed them that he CAN crash streams. They KNOW NaDa is ALSO big. They WILL have had a few days to arrange servers by the time the match happens.

I think it will be fine. It was the Korean stream that crashed last time right? The foreign stream is mostly safe because no matter who is playing, it's still happening in Korean time, which is a major inconvenience for most people who would watch the foreign stream to begin with.

Uh, what do you mean by arrange servers? Servers aren't a pack of legos that you rearrange depending on the amount of traffic you'll be getting. It costs money to have better infrastructure.

Boxer represents Starcraft like nothing else.

If he gets really high in SC2 , it should boost the game by a lot and get even more SC1 players and likers to SC2.

And the best joke i know is that:

bronze => has played the campaign
silver => knows hotkeys
gold => knows who BoxeR is
...

So great ^^

As of this post, there's just over 1 million views for the Nada vs Boxer Korean VOD and 66k for the English VOD. Not sure about the live stream numbers, but those VOD numbers are ridiculous.

Yeah, and on top of that there are no doubt quite a number of people who may have watched restreams or vods not sanctioned by GOM.
