Viewers should be updated in this thread about when the show is cancelled, rescheduled, etc. Edit: And to the guy above, not everyone uses twitter, and sometimes twitter is blocked at work. | ||

There should be one consistent place where we can find out if there is a show or not, that should be the website. I'm not blaming wheat, I'm blaming whoever maintains onemoregame.tv. This is part of the problem I have with esports atm, as a long time fan of pro sports I can see the professionalism here is lacking. Alot of you may think its no big deal for a show to just dissapear for a week with little mention, but as someone on a very tight schedule it really pisses me off when a show I expect to be on just randomly isn't and in order to find that out I'm expected to check someones twitter. That also speaks to the fact that I find ITG and LO3 very entertaining, but please step up the professionalism a notch. | ||

Guess this means Lo3 is probably cancelled as well. :\ | ||

The GD Studio is quickly filling the void between the months out of date onemoregame site + the irregular SOTG. | ||

Would it be better if Wheat fixed the mp3 feed and consistently posted the show's schedule someplace other than twitter? Sure. But it's not something to get pissed about. Sorry if it comes off as entitled, but other media outside of esports effects what my expectations are, and realistic or not right now, I think shows should be striving towards those standards. | ||

I don't want to check DjWheat's twitter because I don't care about DJWheat. I think it is reasonable that the thread about the show in the biggest SC2 community should be updated, I mean, JP does that on SotG, right? I mean, we are not asking for anything ridiculous imo | ||

You could argue that "inside the game" is the starcraft 2 version of "NFL live" a show that happens at the same time daily. So a schedule and a consistent update of epsoides in this thread would be great. Now with that said. Wheat gets his shows done he rarely misses a show, and I think he deserves a vacation, because every other job gets at least 2 weeks off. | ||

All DJWheat has is miniWheat and he is not the age for character-building-tasks yet. These shows are a ton of work and the man can get sick. And the whole "why should I check twitter" argument is dumb. Which service is easier and better for reaching the largest group of people while sick and can be easily updated from your phone? Twitter. | ||

Learn to use the internet, geniuses. It's really that much to ask that the show website has updates on when/if there will be shows? | ||
