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.
-Setting to busy is standard tournament procedure. Opening six chat channels would take all of ten seconds.
-R1ch (the guy quoted in the OP), from my understanding, is basically the official tech support/ trouble shooter for the teamliquid website. If someone reputable should know about what would and wouldn't allow DDOS attempts, it would be him.
Edit: I personally agree with grackodile, two posts below me.

Are you kidding me?
One of the reasons why starcraft matches for MLG never finishes on time is because so many people send chat messages to the players, which when set to busy, means it causes massive amounts of lag. The Losira MMA match was one prime example.
It sucks, but I rather see matches rather than casters talking about random shit for half an hour, while the players are getting new accounts.

Wait so are they just not releasing them this weekend or are they not ever going to release them? If it's just a delayed thing it's not really that big of a deal but if they aren't going to release any of the replays I'm going to be pretty bummed.

EDIT: Rofl, just read the rest of your post. It's obvious you were being sarcastic, my bad. Haha, well played. Or... POE's Law? Guess I'll never know.
MLG should either:
A) Release evidence proving that their reason is valid -or- B) Release a better, more honest reason.
That said, the part of your post I highlighted is straight up retarded. I think you said it without thinking because you were mad, so maybe that's why. You can't possibly be so selfish as to call the replays more important than "all that other crap" they are doing. They're hosting the most diverse high-level tournament ever for SC2 - or at least one of them. They're making it happen. You are pathetic if you think giving out replays is more valuable than ALL THAT.
So, you'd prefer just to have a fat replay pack of high level play - without any live tournament, casting, player interaction, etc - released to you? You are so selfish it is disgusting.

im so sad now ((. i loved watching all the reps from mlg. i dont have the internet capacity to watch streams, and vods take forever to load, so this was the only way i could watch all the games i wanted to. :'(

No they are not. Blame the ass-hats who spammed them while they are trying to run a tournament, rather than MLG.
the ass-hats who spam them still have the ability to spam them this time....announcing that replays wont' be released will not stop that
the only thing that makes sense in their explanation is that uploading all the replays helps create lag problems....solution? release some time after event

TBH, I would take the replay pack OVER the casts. I say that having paid for the cast.
If I was given a choice of watch or get replays only choose one, I would take the replays without a 2nd thought.

Aww man, I feel sorry for you after reading that, I hope they release them for your sake only.

Its obvious that koreans have something to do with this Why not releasing replays,if u are tard u cant still copy builds?
User was temp banned for this post.

If the cited reason was the true one (which I doubt), they could still release the replays later (which they won't).

I think that guy's trolling you ~_~
Seriously though, I want replays The times are horrible for EU so I'll miss most of tonight's matches, and now I can't view them at all :|

Ugh. Well we can thank /b/ and all the other teenagers who think they are elite hackers by DDOSing for fun for this.

R1ch may be correct about the DDoS thing, but my sarcastic statement above still holds true. People are acting entitled and dumb. MLG has way more important things to worry as live events are hard as hell to run. I'm sure they would love to release replays, but the harassment through battle.net doesn't make it worth it.

Really sucks that a pack won't be released after the event is over. Pretty sure nobody really cares if select replays get sent off to specific casters. What people want are the games themselves to look at.

my thought, basically. what is the reason for not releasing them AT ALL ? mlg always was my biggest source of inspiration to train builds that are "hot" right now.. really sad right now.

How on earth does that prevent them from simply releasing the replays after the event is over? I don't think many people would have a problem with that. It's the fact that we are being deprived of access to replays altogether and possibly under a false pretense that is getting people annoyed.
