I still think it's strange that the funds for NASL are from a secret source. It makes me think they come from some shady organization or something.

No I don't have any ownership in NASL. I am the commentator for season 1

I relayed what was relayed to me.. the intention/promise for 3 seasons and 400k$

If that doesn't happen (I have no reason to believe it won't) you can blame me if you like... just like you can blame the "can you hear me now?" guy if verizon goes back on one of it's promises. I was told a message and to promote something so I did.

sad to see iNcontroL leave as he was a really good caster in my opinion, but it's also fantastic to see that he will hopefully be competing more. i love iNcontroL as an esports personality, so as long as he stays involved in the scene, that's good enough for me ^_^

NASL could have been big if they just produced a better product. Maybe they can recover for season 2, but I just hope the players get paid the prize money and aren't left hanging with no recourse if the money just disappears.

The one thing I don't get is they take 2 days for post production before airing the games. However, I see no post production added for the games. There's no graphics no nothing. Just the double cam shot of both players bases at start of game. No graphics or nothing after game. So my question is, what are they doing for those 2 days in post production besides showing a parody vid or top 10 vid.

Ya and after two days there's still a lot of mistakes (like spoiling games that haven't even been casted yet)

I think IPL puts in a week of post-production.

I know NASL has said in the past that casting from replays is inherently inferior, but personally, I think live casting has hurt them more then helped them. It makes scheduling across multiple timezones a nightmare for the leagues and the players, forces the commentators to wait around and cast out sequence (making their job twice as hard), makes errors far more likely, and at least doubles the post-production time.

It's the most expensive decision they've made outside of the prize pool, and the benefits are limited, tbh.

Go do what you love, and ignore anyone who says otherwise. But... does this mean you can come back to State of the Game?

Agreed 100%. Why don't they just cast from replays instead of this "fake live" stuff. The method they have chosen is just inferior in every way to the other two. It is like they could have chose A or B and they decided to make C and go with that which ends up being the worst possible choice

This makes me sad and happy. I'll miss Geoff's casting, but watching him play competitively is going to be awesome.

Come back to SOTG ^_^

incontrol should stick to casting/being a community figure because he's a just a mediocre player at best. EG.Mascot?

This should really help him improve his game, so I view at as only a good thing. While he is a good caster, this also opens up doors for new casters to come in while letting iNcontroL focus on playing.

Well, he's a mediocre player BECAUSE of casting/being a community figure. You're a player equal to the time you put in.

He's still among the top NA protosses. But that just shows that NA isn't great lol.
