Was there a stated reason, or are we assuming the demand/money just wasn't there for the amount of coverage it was getting?

Is there another big SC2 site (thisisgame?) that could possibly do GSL interviews? I really liked those, you got to get a lot of personality from the koreans that we don't usually get to see

They have their own, but we're not allowed to translate from TIG.

Yeah, the money just wasn't there to keep the coverage going, which was unfortunate.

A tournament without insights ( aka Interviews ) is like a Cheeseburger without cheese it is still eatable but there is something important missing.
Paid reporting is needed in a entertainment delivering area .
I dont know how to exactly put it in words but for a short and easy for all understanble way of saying or basicly just repeating was is known this step put E-sports one step behind in point of world known Sport.

I mean those players arent clowns that deliver entertainment in a circus , they are playing a highly mind needing strategic game. Just viewing alone is little understandable for the most folks.
There are to many targets , and i smile everytime they try to defend and thinking they are smart.

We're going to lose a lot of the "personality" of the Korean players now, sadly.

Noooo, hopefully we can get interviews from elsewhere, one of my favorite bits of GSL

Milkis, do you think there are any other sites or news sources poised to take the place of playxp, or are we gonna have to wait and see how Sc2 fares in Korea for the next months?

I'm sure the answer is something obvious that I'm too new to know, but...

why not?

Nooooo I loved those interviews. People called people out in them, acted cocky, told us things, showed their character. q.q

Milkis I'm sure money had something to do with it as I heard it was almost a volunteering job. But don't you think the their last interview with Maka prime had something to do with it? It was a pretty bizarre incident.

Sucks about not being able to translate TIG interview. GOM needs to work out something so that many of their customer can access info and interview from GSL. If you think about it, it would be pretty f stupid if it can't happen.

Losing the GSL interviews is a huge hit =/ Without that, what medium do we have to hear from the players? Random Tweets?
i was driving down the road this november eve and spotted a hitchhiker walking down the street. i pulled over and saw that it was only a tree. i uprooted it and put it in my trunk. do trees like marshmallow peeps? cause that's all i have and will have.

Huh, not allowed to translate? Did they go after TL for people posting their content on it or something?
