Comparing MLG and TL (MLG had a 400% increase in visitors past weekend) And to show what real traffic means... Lets add justin.tv and ustream.tv | ||

MLG stream was pretty bad, but i dont expect every esports stream to be perfect. Its 100% digital content. Streaming a computer game over the internet. (and i mean streaming many instances of the game to close to a million people. not just like one person streaming on their free time, this was crazy huge :O) Of course problems are going to happen, and this is one of those times. Yeah it was bad but im sure after this Sundance is going to make sure that nothing of this scale happens again. And if it does, then its definately a problem with MLG and their staff. Maybe smaller problems will happen at cbus, but i doubt anything this bad will happen ever again at mlg. I, for one, am excited to watch the next MLG, and even though this one was disappointing, it was still fun watching the matches i was able to watch. And im actually glad to see someone inside the company (sundance) actually respond to the customer complaints publicly. Sign of a good organization. Good luck with MLG Cbus! EDIT: also, Holy shit, 1 million viewers? Crazy!! | ||

![[image loading]](http://i51.tinypic.com/3149ssg.jpg) As you can see, the first large blip was MLG Raleigh, followed by DC and Dallas during the 2010 circuit. Then, the red line is for the new website url majorleaguegaming.com is starting to get cut off, but not greatly larger than MLG Raleigh. How this was "double the traffic expected" I'm confused about. | ||

It's been a long and rough weekend - I'm not running at 100% capacity. I'm just happy that MLG has had, for lack of a better term, the balls to man up and apologize for everything repeatedly even in the face of heated criticism. I'm no longer a MLG fan, but they've certainly done well enough that I'm open to coming back into the fold pending future success. If the next MLG event isn't good, well, I'm just not sure if I can give them more chances. | ||

Best of luck, looking forward to see the improvements in the next MLG. | ||
