Along these same lines, I think that there needs to be somewhere on the website the full schedule for each player. Basically, when I click on a player's name and go to their profile page, it should have the full schedule, not just the games played. Having this will also make it easier for casters to know (before their interviews start) who the interviewee will be playing in their next games. I remember last week during the TLO interview, there was a particularly awkward moment when neither the player nor the casters knew who his next opponent was. (NOTE: I'm not hating on the casters; they're busy enough and preparing for player interviews is probably really low on their list of priorities.) I've also jokingly suggested before that the casters should wear colored blazers, but in all seriousness, I would like it if the casters/background were a little less "blue/black." | ||

Your rapport is really developing as well. Good job! I have to agree with this. Last night, especially, was just excellent in commenting (lol@gretrol being an oil). If I had to make a suggestion, I'd suggest having some sort of "highlights" thing playing in the background in the same way you had the Godzilla thing playing in the background. I really liked how that looked on the screen, so I think it might be cool if you had a "player highlights" clip or something as you talk about them after each set. | ||

You know that this is recorded before hand right? And that he tunes in almost every night to watch with us to see how it comes out? The guy spent 4 hours recording this the first time, I think it's sort of unfair to expect him to stick around for another 4 to watch it, even though he does it anyways most days. You're obviously just grasping for something to gripe about now that most of the production problems have been solved. | ||

I'm not agreeing or disagreeing, just clarifying here. | ||

You're obviously just grasping for something to gripe about now that most of the production problems have been solved. Hey hey hey, did I touch a wrong button? Too many assumptions made from reading one post of mine I'm just saying, as posted after you, that the owner/creator/whatever of NASL putting up his own personal stream (And not watching their own show i presume?) which has a viewer base during nasl is unprofessional, and shows a lack of care; and that's how business works. Sorry if you don't agree with that ^^ Also, it doesen't matter if it's pre-recorded, it's still live now. Pre-recorded or streamed completely live makes no difference | ||

Right now it's just another online tourney for me, the production imho for 2011 is crap, IPL is barely acceptable. Any average joe can make production content, if you care enough put more time into it. Ofc I might be a bit harsh, but compare the NASL to CGS (which completely flopped despite TV level production) and you have to wonder if the right people are involved here. There is still so much that needs to be done to even compare to Korea, and I have to say I expected this to compete with it but honestly it's two different worlds. Hopefully IGN will be the ones to push SC2 out to the general media | ||

I feel like Torpcontrol are becoming their own duo though, they are a tad amateur but they know when to be serious and when to be funny. I think they're perfect and the guest commentators are amazing. I think they should rotate the screen in epic battles however like in gsl like when jinro killed mcs carriers in gsl with his mech army. | ||
