Maybe they picked the wrong term, if they don't want to straight up release the replays during the tournament that's completely fine. But this: I just cannot believe. Stuff like this can be solved programmatically. If this is seriously only the character code (and what else is it gonna be) then even a programming novice could manage to strip that data from the replays. I don't buy the explanation that the whole of MLG doesn't field a single programmer that is capable of doing so. I think they received complaints from teams & players saying that they don't want their replays released and they are coming up with a weird explanation like above. This is my theory .. I'd gladly be proven wrong. I completely agree with this message. This sounds to me like a really lame excuse to not release replays, because as mentioned, all MLG had to do was either to remove the character code from the replays programatically (which takes no time at all), or simpler still to just release all the replays after the event was over. It makes me sad they feel the need to lie to the community. | ||

Seriously MGL, why don't you have every player go in, set to busy and open 6 chat channels every game. I don't care if you have to log out each players between sets, this is what needs to happen for me to get what I want. Sure, setting up the players takes time and you are focused on keeping the stream going. But that doesn't matter, I want my replays and you should force every pro to do this so I can have what I want. And this DDoS crap. I have been to some hacking websites on the internet, you may have heard of it. Let me tell you, from the 20 minutes of research I have done and my knowledge from building one PC from parts I ordered off Newegg, that excuse is total crap. You can't DDoS someone from a replay. Sure it gives you their battle.net account information and then you can message them, that's it. There is no possible way in the world that you can DDoS someone once you know their account info and that they are logged into battle.net. So stop giving us this crap and release the replays. We demand it and its way more important that all of the other crap you are doing. User was warned for this post | ||

Some people have been basing a lot of their play off of MLG replays since the game came out. Some people would download the pack and watch some replays 10+ times. I think its EXPECTED to see a reaction when a good number of people are used to pouring over this source of material every few months in order to better themselves in their hobby. | ||

This is the greatest injustice the SC2 world has known. Hell, even as an individual this is the biggest insult and disappointment of my life. Clearly. Totally. 100% Period. | ||

Blame the ass-hats who spammed them while they are trying to run a tournament, rather than MLG. | ||
