Seems like the announcement that replays would be released was to sort of counter the NASL's release of the replays ( it came very soon after the NASL announcement). | ||

I can understand why they don't release replays DURING the competition anymore. That made it too easy to locate and spam the caster smurf accounts. But there's no reason why they can't release replays after the event. The lag excuse is bogus. They had temporary accounts from Blizzard that totally negates the problem. It sucked they ran out of accounts, but after that there was no other way to stop chat lag to the pros. Not releasing replays does nothing. Most participants used their personal accounts at MLG. And anyone can strip you char ID from any replay you were in. So they're always going to have the lag problem until either 1. Blizzard gives MLG more temp accounts or 2. Blizzard fixes the lag thing. MLG's decision to release or not release replays after the event has 0 impact upon the lag problem. Honestly they should monetize the replay pack. Set up a kickstart project and if the goal is reached the entire public gets all the replays for free (because you can't restrict copying of replay files) | ||

of course it is pointless because you can't really learn anything that way + that when you know the results casts aren't that interesting anymore | ||

I actually feel that in general people went a bit too easy on MLG after they made that announcement, was there actually any statement from Blizzards side about this? They just released the replays from their own tournaments pretty quickly after the NA and EU invitationals, where as MLG just said: "Hey, we want go get some more money from these games by doing our own casts and hide behind a dubious excuse." I dont think theres anything wrong with giving your "own" casters a heads up start, but after that, its somewhat of a shame to still not have the replays released. | ||

but actually saying "yeah will release the replays, when something impossible happens" and "we're not doing it now because of ___insert ridiculous reason___" ...now thats just stupid almost as stupid as having 2 caster teams and then not having any of them available to cast most anticipated matches (mc-thorzain in columbus, naniwa-idra/huk-ganzi in raleigh) dont get me wrong, i like mlg, but mistakes they make just makes you wonder like WTH? is it really that hard to synchronise 2 groups of casters not to eat at the SAME TIME? | ||
