If you think market penetration for movie theaters is greater than internet access...Okay. internet connection that can stream the NASL But that assumes that everyone who watches movies would be equally interested in watching the NASL. Which is not true at all. | ||

They're casting the games live and recording the live casting, and then streaming said recording the following day. It's the best way for them to solve the problem of synchronization errors and prevent cheating. Just bought my pass, $20 is actually really solid for 3 months of content. I'm really excited for it. | ||

The games will be cast AS they are being played, they just won't be STREAMED live... after the cast, the videos will be sent to production, and after editing they will be broadcast in the evenings. " http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=195486 If that is the case, then that is awesome. Granted I have been taking 100 percent of what iNcontrol was saying early on as fact. Silly me. | ||

So the two players play, iNcontroL and Gretorp will be casting while the playing occurs. They will take the footage, do post, add production, then broadcast it the next day. Until there delay can be implemented reliably and such, this is the only way tournaments can ensure no cheating occurs. Any inkling of cheating or any suspicion of such will call into question the tournament's legitimacy. That already makes it odd. How are they going to get all of the games casted, edited and ready to be broadcasted when they have to watch each match and some how schedule everyone to play at the right time before the broadcast date is set. I will give them a chance though when they get paypal for the passes. | ||

That's more points for them, now we'll have to see how much sending the VODS off to the production crew pays off. I wonder what they're going to do with the VODS to make the production value good; maybe they'll cut to FP mode like in BW? | ||

But other than that, the best players wont be playing here. Which means this isn't the most prestigious league. Which means it is not the MAJOR LEAGUES. If I am wrong about something, feel free to correct me, but I am under the assumption that they are doing their best to restrict Koreans and "foreigners"(non Americans in this case) from this league. Which is going to drastically lower the skill level and honestly I watch starcraft2 to see the best of the best, maybe others feel differently. | ||

Also I am not paying over double the price for a tourney with half the production values and skill of GSL. Seriously are you crazy NASL? How is esports suppose to grow in the west if they first thing people see is a company asking for 25$ to get involved... Does anyone do maths anymore? Its $25 for 3 months of nearly constant content. With a player pool that all but guarantees some great games. | ||

Which is not true at all. Were talking about the pay-for model which isn't live streaming it's VODs. As such, any internet connection could handle it with enough buffer time. It's isn't about equal interest, its about potential...market opportunity. Number of people who use internet vs number of people willing to physically go to a movie theater for entertainment. This is a silly debate as it account for zero scaling of production costs and only works to support a superfluous point anyway. | ||

I have never heard him say that anywhere. Ever. It's been known forever that the games are going to be castet as they happen and broadcasted the day after. | ||
