Yes, pretty simple, just click your status and set it to busy. How hard is this? Actually, the exploit we're talking about defeats busy status. But thanks for the input. | ||

I'll take the blame for it, for sure. The problem with our original release was trying to explain too much, without being able to (for security reasons) back it up entirely. Thanks.

Can someone please clarify? Duckville talked about the general issue above. I really don't want to talk about the issue in more depth right now. happy to do so after Blizzard patches tho :D | ||

I also do not understand how releasing these replays would inversely affect the ability of casters to release content. The motivations for watching a casted game and watching a replay are two GREATLY different aspects. Thoughts? | ||

For those of you interested in replays: I'm assuming you're primarily interested in it for strategic analysis? Just a curiosity. | ||

However I would hope that at least some people would like to see the reps purely to view awesome matches  (or the vods once the casters put them up) | ||

Not related to the OP. Can you tell us any suggestions you guys got from the community that you plan on implementing at the next MLG or future MLG's? | ||

Once the patch has hit, we will always release replays AT LEAST before the next event takes place. This may or may not be possible before Raleigh. But they will be released. I do understand your need to be cautious, but once the issue in question is fixed it seems strange to hold back replays for days/weeks after the event. In the past, it was really awesome to have replays released during the event so we could more closely follow our favorite players while it is still relevant to do so. To use Tyler as an example, watching his open bracket games while he was still fighting in the tournament would have been exciting, but seeing them now wouldn't be very interesting. Unless he has some very specific build someone wants to copy, there's just not much value in seeing them now. Releasing the replays at all is definitely awesome but there is a huge gap between releasing them ASAP and a few weeks after. Hope this doesn't come off as whining/hate. <3 <3 <3 MLG | ||
