Why oh why are you taking away our replays MLG?!?! We all used to love you for that, something that set you apart from GSL. No matter how small, it still made a difference. But now it's gone. One can only hope you decide to release the replays. I know you'll read this MLG, do it for the fans. | ||

Releasing the replays to casters that we work with and trust is the least risky way to get SOME of this content out. we can monetize content This is what stood out the most to me. If we only release the replays to the casters that work for us we can make more money. A more logical explanation than using replays to ddos players and/or the event. | ||

However it is a sad moment for Sc2 - the major tournament starts to protect themselves. It is ok for me- if I watch 300 times the "German lady shaver advertisment" - every time I switch red/blue channels but - if they say they lose money with every event then this is a problem long term because I doubt that the numbers of sc2 followers will go up - nor will they see money for any services from the existing fan base. I appreciate the statement from MLG - but if they release 1 week later the replays - that should be save, isnt it ? or is that a problem for the next MLG? I think this is a Blizz issue that they have to solve ASAP not the new blue flame icon! | ||

 I really dislike that no tournaments are letting us have replays.... As if those replays are some top secret weapons.... | ||

3) Modifying replay files (not reading them) is a violation of Blizzard's ToS. I maybe could get permission to do it, but there's a lot of legal issues tied up in that. We already know how to do it. But we'd have to check them all before releasing them. this happens all the time - ever see one of those SC2rep messages in some high-level replay? Obviously Idra's not typing that ingame! That said, will you be releasing the replays AFTER the event? Since the tourney will be complete, none of your security worries will be valid anymore..... Still a pretty bogus thing to do, guess that means yet another person not giving a damn about this newest MLG.... | ||

And they wouldn't do this if there is potential fans retribution, cos they know now that they got the fans for their balls and they can do anything from now on... | ||

They realised that they gain nothing if they give replays to the fans but potentially will make money by doing something else with replays.

If they're actually keeping content from the fans so they can sell it, and saying its for 'security' reasons... Well it is the U.S. | ||

Of course no-one at this stage doesn't know the full story, so there's no point in making rash judgements based on MLG being greedy, I just hope in the future there can be a compromise at least, I believe the replays are a huge part of the "package" that is the MLG events! | ||

Seriously, there is no reason not to release the replays after the event, I can understand that you won't release them during it, but after, cmon! | ||

I will never have the Chance to, unless one commentator maybe casts one of the sets, fantastic.

To "monetize" the replays. | ||
