You might as well not even release the replays if they are going to be held back every single event for a few weeks. | ||

That's essentially like a GM in WoW answering to a bug report "This is a known issue, and our developers are looking for a solution." Skip to 5 months later. Same issue. | ||

THey're holding back until Chat Spam is patched out. Then they just release it. Based on what I read they're holding Anaheim replays back for this reason but won't after this (assuming patch is that close). There's also no reason to complain about delayed replays when most tourneys never release theirs at all. | ||

You're assuming that it will be and that the strats will no longer be valid, but there's absolutely no basis for that assumption.... | ||

you cannot eliminate risk you would be wasting a fortune if you did risk is about balancing the cost of prevention vs the cost of actualisation * probability Ity is stupid and ignorant to try and remove all risk. Personally i can make a lot of money by buying risk from people who think they are being sensibly 'risk adverse' when really they are just dumb. I on the other hand am risk averse ... i buy risk when they overvalue it and sell it when it is undervalued ... this way i avoid bad risk. risk is clearly not something to avoid ... have you ever heard fo an insurance company going broke? I havent .... yet they buy risk off people every single day. | ||

Well that's nice and makes sense, but in their case taking the replays and releasing them and increasing risk does nothing for them financially. The replays are free. They earn no revenue from releasing the replays. You're using insurance as an example, but it is not applicable in this case. In insurance's case they get a return on the risk they buy. This is not the case for MLG. It's not like a magical fan appreciation bunny hands them an Easter egg with $100 for every replay they release that can possibly disrupt the live tournament experience. Additionally, yes I have heard of an insurance company going broke. You know AIG? Yeah that's a pretty big insurance company. They had to be bailed out by the American government or they would have defaulted. | ||
